Ok, so quick question - some lovely people have replied to my toot(?) and I would like to interact to say that I see and appreciate it... but I am not sure how to do that. A reply isn't always appropriate, and boost, favourite and bookmark seem like overkill. help!

    @EmrynVale@social.vivaldi.net Posts on Mastodon are called 'Toots'. The Toot icons do the following: Left arrow: replies to the toot. Double-arrow: Boost or Quotes the toot. Star icon: Favorites the toot. Bookmark icon: Bookmarks the toot. Three dot menu: Provides other options (Copy Link, Mention, Mute, Block, Report) for the toot. When one replies to, Boosts, Quotes and/or Favorites a toot, the user who made the toot receives a notification, if they have set up that notification.

    @EmrynVale@social.vivaldi.net A favourite is absolutely the right thing to do.

    @EmrynVale@social.vivaldi.net Use "Favorite". Use "Reply" if you want to add a comment. Yes, it will be public but, that is ok. You can DM but, personally, I'm going to think you're setting me up for a scam if you do that.
