An easy and stress-free way of joining Mastodon and the Fediverse

Mastodon (and the wider Fediverse it is part of ⧉) is a non-corporate social network owned and operated by ordinary people and grassroots community groups. Here are the basics:

- To join Mastodon and the Fediverse, you need to sign up on a server.
- Whichever server you sign up on, you can follow people from other servers and they can follow you.
- If you change your mind later, you can move your account to a different server while keeping your follows and followers.

To get started, pick the option that suits you best:

- I want to sign up, please suggest a good server
- I want to choose from the full list of good servers
- I have questions I need answered before I sign up
- I’ve signed up for an account, what do I do next? 65cb6c76ca4613a7.png Screenshot of the "More replies found" dialogue box from Mastodon, which appears when Mastodon has detected more replies to a thread you're currently viewing. Click on "Show" to make those new replies appear. This allows everyone on all servers to see the same view of a discussion thread. 2dbb51c7a8b98637.png Screenshot of a PeerTube channel profile with the icon highlighted which copies the profile's Fediverse address.

Below the screenshot is a caption saying "Click Follow to follow the channel or account". 174b4e0aaca73ebe.png Screenshot of some posts within a thread viewed from in Mastodon. There is a caption "This reply is coming from a Ghost-powered site which is on the Fediverse".

One post is highlighted and is from a Ghost-powered site @sam@bl.ag and says "Thank you for sharing BLAG on your feed and your site. I'm excited to see what the Ghost-Fediverse integration goes in the months/years ahead."

A reply below this post is from the FediFollows Mastodon account and says "Happy to share, you are running a lovely site! And indeed about the integration! This is amazing to be reading a reply from a Ghost site directly within Mastodon." 762ddede527bd2c9.png Screenshot of the first post in a thread viewed through Mastodon's web interface.
