Diaspora/Website
-
At the top of the screen is the header bar, which always remains in place, even when you scroll down the page. This header bar contains:
-
Beneath the header there are two columns:
-
In the sidebar you’ll see links to the different content views available in diaspora*:
<span class="click">Stream</span>,<span class="click">My activity</span>,<span class="click">@Mentions</span>,<span class="click">My aspects</span>,<span class="click">#Followed tags</span>and<span class="click">Public activity</span>. We’ll explain these next. There are also some links to help you invite your friends, welcome new users, find help, connect to external services such as Twitter, Tumblr, and Wordpress (if available on your pod), post to diaspora* from the rest of the web (the diaspora* “bookmarklet”) and on some pods, contact information for the pod’s administrator and a button to donate to the costs of keeping your pod running. -
The main column contains the content stream with a “publisher” box at the top. This is where the magic happens! We’ll cover using the publisher in %{part_link}.
-
The different views available in diaspora* are:
-
Virta

The stream -
Posts in the stream are ordered according to the time of the original post.
-
My activity
-
Your “My activity” stream shows any posts which you have either liked or commented on. This is a useful way of catching up on any interactions you’ve been having in diaspora*. Posts in this stream are ordered according to the latest activity (comment or like) on each post.
-
@Mentions
-
This displays any posts made by other people @mentioning you. We’ll discuss @mentions in %{part_link}.
-
Näkymäni

My aspects -
“My aspects” displays all posts made by all the people with whom you are sharing – that is, the people you have placed into your aspects. Don’t worry if you don’t know what an aspect is – we’re going to cover this in detail in the next part.
-
Click on
<span class="click">My aspects</span>in the menu to see the list of your aspects. You can view posts made to all aspects, or just to one or more individual aspects, by selecting and deselecting them from the aspect list in the menu. -
#Followed tags
-
This view displays all available posts (public posts and limited posts made to aspects you have been placed in) containing tags you follow. We’ll look at tags in more detail in %{part_link}.
-
In this view you will see a list of your tags. Clicking on a tag in the sidebar will take you to the stream for that tag. You can stop following a tag by clicking the cross by its name in the sidebar.
-
Profile view
-
Clicking your name or profile image (your “avatar”) anywhere you see it takes you to your profile page. This shows you all the posts you have made in diaspora*. It also displays your profile photo, screen name, “about me” tags and your “
<strong>diaspora* ID</strong>(which looks like an email address, starting with the user name you chose followed by the name of your pod). -
Under your avatar you’ll see any extra profile information you have added, such as birthday, location, gender, biography and so on.
