<p>One of my favourite features of the <a href="/tags/fediverse/" rel="tag">#fediverse</a> is seeing people *learning things*. There are so many folks here discovering dying arts and trades. People learning how the things we take for granted work, and endeavouring to implement them themselves!</p><p>People getting their <a href="/tags/hamradio/" rel="tag">#HAMradio</a> licenses, <a href="/tags/selfhosting/" rel="tag">#selfhosting</a>, making clothing, blacksmithing, gardening, repairing their own things, backporting modern software to run on windows 3.11... </p><p>Y'all are my people. Never stop learning, and never stop sharing what you've learned.</p>

Totally stealing it.</p>
<p>Some people say navigating the <a href="/tags/fediverse/" rel="tag">#Fediverse</a> is challenging, but there are often clear signs.</p>
<p>Can I ask a favour?</p><p>If you see someone who is asking for help using this place, and if no one else is helping them, could you tag me into the conversation and/or link to my website <a href="https://fedi.tips" rel="nofollow"><span class="invisible">https://</span>fedi.tips</a>?</p><p>I'm trying to provide unofficial tech support for people using Mastodon and the wider Fediverse. I'm especially keen to help new people who want easy-to-understand advice, but they won't see me and I won't see them unless someone tags me.</p><p>Thanks 🙏 </p><p><a href="/tags/feditips/" rel="tag">#FediTips</a> <a href="/tags/fediverse/" rel="tag">#Fediverse</a> <a href="/tags/mastodon/" rel="tag">#Mastodon</a></p>
