So this particular install of Mastodon is interesting -- it looks more like Twitter's interface (and, for that matter, GNU social) than the "Tweet Deck" style I've seen elsewhere. Was that done on purpose?
@robertwgehl If not, then check the box in this setting.
@ggow are there privacy settings involved?
@robertwgehl yep. posts need to be set for "public" to show up in the local and federated timelines.
@robertwgehl that seems to be the case. For some reason, some toots in my home timeline aren't showing in the local timeline. Let me know if you have any insights.
