Can anybody recommend a good video explaining the various privacy settings on Mastodon? I'd like to share a video along with any written documentation I create/find since sometimes that's easier for users.

Thanks!

@KuJoe check out @feditips and their website. They’ve got all kinds of resources- maybe they can help

@zyz @feditips Thanks! I checked it out but couldn't find anything specific to privacy (lots of good info on certain aspects of it though). I ended up putting a document together myself on just the account and server settings, hopefully there will be a more extensive guide one day. 🙂

@KuJoe @zyz @feditips
Hi KuJoe - I think you and others will find there are 3rd party apps - not least but not only the @MonaApp - that do offer the ability to edit and ‘quote’ posts. There is a growing number of excellent Mastodon / Fediverse client application contenders out there. Enjoy!

@logienick @KuJoe @feditips I like #IceCubes for a lot of its #Quoting and #Editing functions, but I prefer #Metatext for almost everything else.

@KuJoe @feditips thanks KuJoe! I appreciate you taking the time 🙏🏼

@feditips @zyz Thanks!!! That's a very good guide on the post visibility options which I'll admit I glossed over on my guide.

I'll add that link to my guide so others can get a much more detailed understanding of those settings.

@feditips @KuJoe I, myself, am interested in how the dev handles thing.

I’m fine with Mastodon’s privacy policy. But as we all know, the middleman has the potential to do bad things
