Relax and go with the flow. Just absorb the nerd lingo, then search for the new words.
To *use* Mastodon, a browser or mobile app is enough. To *manage* Mastodon, Linux wizardry is required.
Vim and Emacs are old-style text editors, still very popular. BSD is an operating system, Linux-like. A plugin is software made to install within another software; browser extensions are examples.

@jcastroarnaud @ploum Most of us who've just joined are just using it as per other soc media on standard browser without add ons - I found the basic app useless, but seems fine going via the website.
Is there more to see ??

I find the web interface best, too. Even though I'm on the website on my phone 😄

This post is a bunch of old computer humor. The funny part is the answers are still incomplete.

@Jos21Bell @ploum The Mastodon app offers little more than the web interface. I prefer the Tusky app on Android, also free. And there are paid apps, which I didn't try.
