you may have to explain to me this difference between Mastodon and fediverse. It's one of these things I don't fully understand yet (be kind, I'm new)

@der_schrank@biplus.social @hpod16@eupolicy.social as you're learning about Mastodon and Fediverse, I highly suggest checking out some of the resources that @FediTips@social.growyourown.services has released. They're how I learned most of what I know about fedi.

Best of luck!

Hi Hannah, welcome!

About your question, Mastodon is part of a much larger social network called the Fediverse.

I've done an easy-to-understand guide about this at https://fedi.tips/what-is-mastodon-what-is-the-fediverse/

There are also lots more guides on the front page at https://fedi.tips and feel free to ask if you want help with anything specific. I am trying to provide unofficial tech support on here 🙂
