  • There are certainly tech nerds, but there’s plenty of other stuff out there, particularly art and other cultural sharing. What sort of topics are you into? Mastodon greatly benefits from following hashtags, so maybe folks can recommend ones to follow for you. Also, if you happened to join an instance with only a few users, it may be missing a lot of relayed content from various other instances which can provide the appearance of boring/missing content.















  • I’m missing it a lot less than I ever missed Twitter…
    For the most part, Reddit has sort of filled a void of community groups or random goofy videos/memes for me, as I’m not on either FB/IG or TikTok. On Reddit I could see a post about something going on in my city (Portland), a review of a game I like, a cat floofing out of a tiny vase, and a gorgeous photo of a mountainside all in the span of 30 seconds. It’ll be a bummer not to have that experience any more, but I get enough value out of the Fediverse at this point (along with a few Discord servers) I’m not going to lose sleep over it.
