I need some other stuff to follow on mastadon. I mostly used twitter for writers and bands. And Gritty. Now I'm looking for stuff to follow on mastadon and coming up short.
The canonical way to get loads to follow on mastodon is follow @[email protected] - she's basically a human version of the algorithm, and will fill your timeline with boosts.
@tony @atrielienz Thank you for the recommendation! 💖
I can understand that. It's the sort of thing where to have something viable on the broad scale, Mastadon needs to have people invest in it before it becomes the ideal thing. More people, makes it more likely that the things you want to see on there will be on there eventually.
Yeah. Some people have given me pointers and I am very grateful. But considering I didn't follow that many people on Twitter (I barely used it except for like book and album releases), I guess this is just my use case. Mastodon I don't have to check but maybe like once a week or maybe every two weeks.
