This re-orders the FAQ around different topics (signing in, timelines, posts, etc), adds new questions, and rewords existing ones for consistency or clarity.

New questions are:

  • What release should I use?
  • Can I create an account?
  • How do I see the Federated timeline?
  • How do I hide boosts?
  • How do I hide replies?
  • How do I follow / mute hashtags?
  • How do I edit a post?

**A:** No because of three reasons, 1, hate against marginalised groups is not an opinion; 2, Gab can still be accessed by other means and Tusky can be forked; 3, Tusky is no government, so it cannot take away your basic rights.

Because it wasn't written from the perspective of the user.

And historically, I've found that the more specific the justifications become, the more abusive users will try and weasel around them.


**Q:** Why another Android app when there's also an official Mastodon Android app?

Didn't feel like something people actually ask, and it's an unwitting invitation to both inadvertently put down other projects, and be factually incorrect if those projects change their feature set.

The hard coded url to the rick_roll_domains list on the develop branch is outdated. A possible workaround could be to link to a specific version, like v23.0: https://github.com/tuskyapp/Tusky/blob/v23.0/app/src/main/res/values/donottranslate.xml#L165
