Influx of new followers! Exciting!
First: Welcome!
I have some #security tips for you:
- Make sure you use a strong #password for your new Mastodon account (don’t reuse your Bird Site AKA #twitter password. Or any other password.)
- use multi-factor authentication #mfa to add an additional layer of security to your account
- be aware DMs on Mastodon are not encrypted (admin instances can see read them). Don’t transmit sensitive info over DMs!
