What Discipulus forgot to mention is that he's discipulus@perl.social

I am new to this as well, but for others who don't have Mastadon-type experience: If you are on a different fediverse/activitypub network, I believe you can follow someone from perl.social by using their @username@perl.social and/or https://perl.social/profile/username. Similarly, I was able to follow someone from a different server from my perl.social account using their profile URL from that server in your "Add new contact" field.

But because they cross-communicate, if you've already got a Mastadon or other fediverse/activitypub account, there is no reason to create another account at perl.social, and you can still follow folks that do. Since I hadn't chosen a server yet, I decided perl.social was a reasonble place to dip my toes into the fediverse.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
