#mastodonhelp #mastodonnewbie I tried going into profile settings via web on my phone, it shows me a whole new set of options. I have a few questions wrt options and usage.1. What is profile metadata supposed to be? It says Label and Content, where does this show up?2. List account on directory (that I checked on recommendation) - where can this be seen? How do I access said directory if I'm looking for interesting accounts to follow?3. I read somewhere that specific hashtags can be followed by clicking on the follow button that appears next to the hashtag upon searching. I tried this on both web and Android app and somehow cannot see any option to follow a hashtag (eg #photography), is there something I'm missing here?@mastodonindians @freemo #mastodonmigration #mastindia

@NehaKhazanchi @mastodonindians @freemo 1. These are basically custom fields that show up in your profile.3. Activating hashtags is currently only possible via the web interface, and only if your instance has updated to Mastodon 4.0.No idea about 2.

@juergen_hubert ah! I suppose that's why I cannot follow hashtags.Thanks for clarifying!

@NehaKhazanchi Yup, your instance still seems to be using v3.2.1.https://qoto.org/about

@juergen_hubert @NehaKhazanchi Qoto is based on Mastodon v3.2.1, but it’s actually a fork i.e. @freemo took the code and added a lot of features (incl. the Markdown support, quote posts, etc.) in Qoto’s branch of the code, so the version number doesn’t tell the full story. In this case, I believe Qoto added hashtag-following before the main Mastodon code did, you can find it at https://qoto.org/settings/follow_tags or going Preferences -> Follows and Subscriptions -> Following hashtags

@digital_carver @juergen_hubert @freemo I suppose these features are available on web and not on apps are they?Quote posts sounds interesting, exactly like Quote Tweet I assume?

@NehaKhazanchi @digital_carver @juergen_hubert @freemo Qoto through mobile web is worth it! The only issue is the notification alerts. But I guess that's a blessing in disguise (atleast for me)
