Building up a good list of follows on Mastodon is orders of magnitude harder than on Bluesky unfortunately. They need to address this if they want adoption.
I dunno. I joined Mastodon back in 2022 and just…followed people.
They weren’t the same people as on Twitter, but it didn’t really matter in the end. I now follow almost 600 people and never feel like my feed is empty.
One social media site doesn’t have to be better than another, it just has to be sufficient for your needs.
That takes a long time. I tried the same on Mastodon and ended up losing interest. I went to bluesky and just followed some starter packs and was up and running in less than an hour with 1000+ follows and a nice feed. Within a few weeks I had more than 700 followers myself.
Maybe you can try following the Starter Packs of subjects that you like?
Thanks I didn’t know these existed!
Spread the good word!
Any good things to follow on Mastodon? I’ve tried using it, but between BlueSky and Lemmy, it doesn’t seem to have as many users. No biggie, just asking. Cheers!
Mastodon actually has way more users than Lemmy but you need to follow each person indivdually instead of just following a community, which is probably why it feels more empty
