#sharkey / #yeentown tips: The more buttons
Some helpful features are in the more menu by default. you can change what ones are in your sidebar vs menu in your settings!
- Lookup lets you load links to other instances quickly letting you follow or react to posts sent to you by people on other sites
- Following is a unique timeline view which splits your screen between your following list and their posts, this is helpful if you want to browse through peoples most recent posts of everyone even when some people you follow post more often than others
- Scheduled notes let you plan posts out ahead of time to post at certain times or days. Its good for artists who want to keep a consistent schedule or if you want to post at midnight but want people to see it in the afternoon!
- Lists let you make custom timelines of particular people. Its good if you want to sort the people you follow without all the posts being mixed together
- Antennas are custom timelines that "catch" all incoming posts and sort them against your whitelist/blacklist. if you're interested in a certain topic and want to discover more posts about it, its a great alternative to traditional algorithms. Just make sure to add to your blacklist as needed.
- Pages are like longform blogposts that are primarily shared by links. You can imbed images or treat it as a wiki. I wouldnt reccomend using this over normal posting if you want reach, but it can be good if you prefer a more newsletter style experience.
- Plays are games or tools made by other users on the instance, not many exist on most platforms but the ones that do range from quizzes to posting aids
- Gallery is a alternative way to post similar to pages. It lets you conglomerate many images in a instagram style view. This doesnt federate as of now, so you should only use this if you intend to directly link it to people
- Clips are like bookmarks or playlists but expanded on. You can put things in multiple clips to "tag" them, in which case you or others can search through the clips later to find each post marked that way.
- Channels are like groupchats but with posts. Anyone can join or post to a channel but it wont show up on peoples timelines. Its similar to a facebook group.
- Chat is your dms! You can message anyone on the same instance as you, and messaging other instances will show up as you making a private post mentioning them that they can reply to. Theres also group chats!
- Games! The 2 on yeentown are bubble game (suika game) and reversi. Reversi requires a partner but if you tag @/grimace in it it will act as a bot
- Switch UI changes you to a customizable dock ui. This is useful if you find the original UI overwhelming or need specific features.
- About shows you instance information
- Refresh refreshes the page. This is useful if you're on the mobile web app and cant hit the web refresh button.
- Profile shows you your profile
- Clear cache clears your cache, good if your browser is slow!

me btw
Btw heres a list of various artists (mostly furry) I think people may like! https://yeen.town/list/a3tjblrxq1cn0j74
I guess I should do an #introduction since it's a new instance
Hi im jake! (Fursona is Chalk)
I'm a 20 year old #nonbinary (he/they) #muscician and #pixelartist who's primary interest is #peppers and #chillies. I'm a #furry with #autism and #adhd (along with a few other things) who really just wants to make friends and help the world be a better place :3
I don't boost or post nsfw often, but when I do it's behind a cw. Similarly, don't expect me to reply to nsfw content very often even if I may like or react to it (sorry nsfw artists, nothing personal!)
If you post anything about #gardening, #gamedev, or anything related to those, I'd love to follow :3
I hope you have a wonderful day! Boosts are appreciated since I lost a lot of the people who followed me when I migrated here (and vice versa)!
