Yes. Be patient. Assume that when Fediverse stuff is not working exactly right, it’s not you, it’s probably the Fediverse. These are early days of self-organized effort, like thousands of people trying to lash rafts and boats together in the middle of the ocean. They’re busy trying to make sure the whole thing doesn’t sink - don’t worry about the photos.

With kindness, I very much suggest against dismissing both the technology and your ability to understand it by calling it “mumbojumbo”. Don’t let the engineers make this stuff something only they can understand and work with.
