I'm quite new to Mastodon, but an old hand at social media. Like, I was doing it before we had the term "social media."

What are some rules of netiquette here? Or "tootiquette"?

I don't want to be the conversational elephant who tramples over all the fences on his way to the watering hole.

@howardtayler Use the CW function a lot. The general etiquette is anything politics goes under a CW, because a lot of us were very sick of Twitter being a stress engine and politics being CW'd makes it easier to skip if you're not in the mood
