How do you find (fun & interesting) accounts to to follow on Mastadon?
On Twitter I mostly followed people I knew in real life, comedians, some novelty and parody accounts. I joined Mastadon and I really don’t see anything interesting to me looking at trending posts and what not. It seems very grown up and dry. I miss a little of the “Wild West” aspect of twitter from early 2010’s with offensive humor and cutting satire and just silliness.
Any suggestions?
You're viewing a single thread.
Mastodon isn't really a Twitter replacement, in that there's no recommendation algorithm, and no real notion of trending topics. You need to actively search for users you like and events you're interested in.
It takes effort. Follow hashtags. Whenever you see someone who posts something you like, follow them, then creep on their subscriptions and follow them.
What are some of your fav accounts that are fun or interesting?
Aside from folks in my city, I enjoy
