Do people do intro posts on Mastodon? I don't know.
Hi, I'm Thomas - new here and possibly moving from Threads because it's driving me nuts.
From the UK, live on a narrowboat, PhD in formal logic focussing on legal reasoning. Now a software engineer trying building a site to document arguments ( Controvis ) - argumentation is one of my main interests (both formal and not).
Economically left and socially liberal. Was a member of the Lib Dems but didn't think they took a hard enough stance against transphobia. So erm, maybe I'll join the Greens, I don't know.
Intro posts are the best possible introductions on Mastodon.
I would also recommend including hashtags in your profile, for as many of the topics and things you're interested in. Due to the lack of an algorithm, hashtags do lots of heavy lifting on Mastodon, and they're the easiest way to find people with shared interests.
Welcome!

@davep wheyyy,!

@angiebaby thank you will do that

They're also good to use in introductory posts or just posts in general as well, I just didn't suggest editing your intro post because I wasn't sure if you were limited to 500 characters or not.

@kimlockhartga well today I have been removing mold. So, one aspect is damp and humidity. In general a lot of maintenance work that some people love and others not. The main pluses for me are the travelling, being in the middle of nowhere or in the middle of a city (though we are permanently moored for the upcoming years now), and the nature.
@thomaschristopherking @kimlockhartga Have you been on the Falkirk Wheel?

@ariaflame @thomaschristopherking Had to look this up. It looks equal parts amazing and terrifying.

@ariaflame @kimlockhartga I have not, we are in the south and there is no inland waterway route up to the Scottish canals!

Yes, people do intro posts, and often pin them on their profile page!Welcome to the Fediverse!

@thomaschristopherking hi Thomas
Yes, introductions are customary and if you want it to be seen by more people, especially outside the social coop server, you can add to your initial post the hashtag #introduction.
You can also add hashtags relating to your interests (ex. #narrowboat).
welcome!
