Know your instance

Mastodon accounts live on a server (instance). Postsiva saves the instance for this workspace before opening Mastodon OAuth.

1. Open Mastodon connect

In Connect your world, select Connect on Mastodon. The Mastodon Instance dialog opens.

2. Enter or pick an instance

Type your server (for example mastodon.social) or choose a suggested instance, then select Connect to continue to Mastodon OAuth.

Postsiva Mastodon Instance dialog with mastodon.social selected

Use the exact instance where your account lives. A wrong server will fail OAuth or connect the wrong identity.

3. Authorize and confirm

Complete Mastodon authorization in the popup. When you return, Mastodon should show Connected in Connect your world.
