Hey there, anyone want some help with using Mastodon or the wider Fediverse?
Reply (or send me a DM if you prefer) with your questions and I'll try to get you some answers 🙂

@FediTips are there instances for non-profits that allow for networking across Europe? And how do I go about posting longer texts - do I have to switch instances or is there another way?
Is there any way to filter posts by language?
@FediTips I cant login to fedi.vieo with my mastodon creds. is that normal?
Is it possible to switch to another instance using the profile, whilst also transferring the posts and media? Thank you.
@FediTips know of any engine/library/frameworks implementing fedi protocols, to allow quickly standing up a custom federated app?
I'm not sure exactly what you're aiming to build (an instance? a client?) and I'm not a dev either, but there are lots of Fedi-related platforms and tools listed at https://codeberg.org/fediverse/delightful-fediverse-experience
Maybe something there would match what you're looking for?
@FediTips probably an instance. I'm interested in making something much more flexible in functionality, but not sure if it's worth the work to develop vs sticking with mastodon. Thanks for the resource!
@FediTips can you search in the browser for posts matching from a specific server? E.g. I want to search aus.social for “software”. The results seemed to be from all instances and I couldn’t find a good way to narrow it down.
As far as I know there's no way to search a particular instance's accounts. The nearest to this would be browsing the instance's Local timeline (aka "Live Feeds").
In case this is any help, there are many other options for narrowing searches listed at https://fedi.tips/how-do-i-search-for-stuff-on-mastodon/
Is there a way to follow a Lemmy community on mastodon and have it only "boost" the initial/main post and the comments just show up as replies on mastodon?
(I hope that makes sense)
Unfortunately I don't support Lemmy. Sorry.
@FediTips I’ve never really understood @mobilizon What’s the added value compared to other planners?
