I currently use mbin and I like it because I like reddit-style social media, but for stuff from specific people and organizations microblog is sometimes better. I want to use the microblog part more (for example, make a post asking the Vivaldi account if there is any possibility of Vivaldi switching to a Firefox base instead of chromium. also I know it’s not that easy no need to discuss that on this thread) but tbh I don’t understand microblog stuff at all. in particular I want to know how I’m supposed to use @s and #s, and how I’m meant to interact with it. I know this seems kind of silly but I’ve never really used microblog-style social media until I got into the fediverse a couple months ago.
edit: to clarify, I am not asking how to use the microblog feature of mbin. I am asking about microblog in general.
I didn’t mean how to use the microblog feature, I meant how to interact with microblog content and how I should format it when I post it. also, even if the topic was how to use the feature, there is nobody in mbin meta.
Are you looking for a one off? Or to start microblogging in general? If the latter, I recommend creating an account on Mastodon or one of the *keys as you’ll have a much better time than using the built in bit here. While federation is great and I do cross-follow, I still have accounts here, on Sharkey, Pixelfed, etc.
If you’re looking for a one off, others have answered that above.
I more mean just like how I’m meant to interact with it, I’ve never really used it so it’s taking a little bit to wrap my head around it.
