#Mastodon Experts: Why do some URLs show thumbnail previews, and some do not? For example, if I share a YouTube link, my post shows a generic YouTube gray thumbnail. On other user’s posts, sometimes it’s literally just the URL text at the bottom of their posts, without any thumbnail. Finally, on other user’s posts, there is a thumbnail preview. What causes this?
Thanks in advance!

How come some images won't load from other Mastodon instances?

Question: Sometimes, when I post a link on here, it shows a preview (like on Twitter/X) & other times it doesn't ... what am I doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!! 🫠

@fulelo oh how strange! Someone else just followed me yesterday! Maybe there is someone who know why you can't follow me? #mastohelp #mastodonhelp4newbies #mastodonhelp
Am I being dense but I wish you could like quote posts? Like quote tweets?

So I've been using the #mastodon app and it doesn't exactly work correctly every day so does anyone know if there's a better app to use for it? My notifications won't go away most of the time and I don't get notifications for everything and I miss stuff that otherwise I'd reply to.
So if anyone has a suggestion, please let me know ✌️💜

One of the best aspects of Mastodon is the friendly, welcoming culture. People are eager to help. Real people. And the people who are helping are doing so because they like helping. If you have questions about Mastodon, try using these hashtags with your question. 🙂 I'll bet nobody asks you for your phone number.

Hey, quick #mastodon question: is there any way to follow a public/local timeline from another instance in your mastodon app?
Eg. I'm on todon.eu, but I love to visit dice.camp/public/local. If I could have that as like a tab or a list in my home screen I'd be elated.

@Leeisme #Mastodonhelp4newbies my main account instance is down but I can still see the posts via activity pub is there an easy way to import my follows at least? Guess I’m starting over
Can anyone recommend the best app for accessing Mastodon on? I've tried Ivory, but there are a lot of strange blanks 🤷
Thanks in advance!
Question about federation: my friend sent me a link to a mastodon post on a server different to my own.
https://famichiki.jp/@Tsutsuku/110537730270070245
When I open that link in my browser, I can't interact because I don't have an account on that server.
Is there an easy way to have urls to other mastodon servers open in a way that it's on my home server?
Does anyone know if there’s a way to make the news feed more appropriate for me? It’s incredibly USA centric. A historic thing happened today with the Northern Ireland protocol and not a peep on the news page

Question for the #mastodonhelp4newbies #metatext : I’m using the Metatext app on iOS and I can’t upload any videos to Mastodon from my phone. Even little 5 second clips. Photos work fine, for vids I either get an upload error message or it does nothing. Is this common and anyone know a fix? Thanks!
I forgot to add a text reader description to my last post but when I try and edit to add it, it comes up with an error. Has anyone else had this problem? I don't want to delete and redo the post as I only noticed hours later, and it has comments.
#Mastodonhelp4newbies ok, got a question....is there a way to "favorite" a hashtag so that it shows in my feed? #help #QuestionsMastodon
Dearest peers, is there a way to comment something you boost? Like, to give context or add extra info to a boost? Thank you!
