Newbie on Mastodon: where is an overview of my subscriptions?

I did not use twitter, but i decided to check out mastodon. One thing is a mystery to me; i can’t find an overview of the accounts i started following, when i use mastodon on the web. Here on Lemmy, for instance in the Photon app i use on the web, my subscriptions are neatly positioned in the sidebar; one click and i’m...

Is one-way communication possible?

I’m not entirely sure how to ask this, but is there some way for a Mastodon server to host only its own content while being accessible to others?...

CW: I closed my twitter account today. I've just had enough.

Twitter wont unban me

My twitter account got hacked and some people tried to login in from a different place. I was literally not aware of this because I had a exam that time so was not using Twitter.

Is it possible to search for users based on description on mastodon?

Can you subscribe to/follow a Mastodon tag using Lemmy?

I know it’s possible to subscribe to a Mastodon user on a Lemmy instance, but it seems to me like this is of limited utility since the more standard use case on Mastodon is following tags rather than users. So, is it possible to somehow follow a Mastodon tag using Lemmy and get posts with that tag integrated into your Lemmy...
