Works well, thanks for keeping this going.

Lots of glowing hype about how useful it is yet ZERO easily accessible information on how to *actually* use it. Some mention of an FAQ but I can't find it. Maybe list the basic how-to's please?

Makes browsing Mastodon and expanding my network much more intuitive. Jared actively replies to questions and even has a helpful FAQ for users. Great stuff, 5/5 would review again, A+, S tier rank up, Solid Snake approves.
