@nigelisok yep! this is pretty much like Twitter except it's controlled by the users instead of these mega-corporations 😄

You obviously know how to post. The star is for "liking" other posts, and the boost icon (the arrows) are for re-posting something on your own feed.

There's "Home", which is people you follow, "Local timeline" which is all the people on this server you joined, and "Federated timeline" which is a bunch of people from a bunch of different servers that run this same software!
