| |

| |
| ppl that other follow, boost or searched for
| |
| search
| |
| you can use hashtags
| |
| you can search for @<username>@<domain> even across services like @foo@open.audio for following an account of funkwhale on mastodon
| |
| profile

| top left corner shows indication whether user is already following you
| |
| notifications
| |
| settings (top right corner)
| |
| display categories: Differs between replies, favs, boosts, reminders, ppl follow you
| |
| user preferences
