Hard at work trying to bring some order in paper administration. Amazingly, actually making some progress but I need more folders and such... http://oracle.skilledtests.com/attachment/158324

I spent a large part of the day shopping for various folders and binders, both online as in brick stores - only one color I need still missing, but the rest is here, or will be delivered #tomorrow. Off to my #sleepchair now... !tzaf !fediverse !tempfix

@potter no, a conversation starts when someone replies to someone else; if that reply or the top dent is (also) addressed to a group, the convo tends to stay within that group automatically - at least for the members of that group. But different instances may be configured differently.
-
@potter you can reply to *people* without being a member of any group ☺
-
@potter a group is just a collection of people that can be addressed as that collection. You can reply to people regardless whether or not they are a member of any group. Anyone can create a group (and is then administrator of it); the group owner decides whether the group is open or private.
-
All groups I have created are open, so there is no invitation for them, you just join. How you do that depends on what interface you're using: a program, an app, or the browser UI. To join a 'remote' group (based on a different instance than where you're at) you generally use the browser.
-
@potter :) don't try to be perfect, just experiment and learn from what works and what surprises you ;-) And keep asking questions: that way you may actually help other people, too!
-
@potter you're on tpaw\.org while I'm on oracle\.skilledtests\.com - using the browser, you can post only from a page on your own instance, so that idea ('where do you post from') won't fly for you. But there seem to be problems at your instance (as I can see it): your profile page https://tpaw\.org/potter seems blank; looking at the source there's only part of the <head> section, then it stops, nothing to display. Adding /all for your timeline it does work though. Talk to the administrator of your instance!
-
@maiyannah @potter yes, I noticed 'qvitter' in the incomplete <head> section but I have no knowledge of how that works (or should work).
-
@potter well, do talk to your administrator: if things don't work properly that may be an extra cause of confusion you'd rather avoid
