@mdmrn @jcrabapple I always recommend "follow and favorite liberally!" Build up that feed and don't be afraid to dive down rabbit holes from boosts. Lots of great people to find here!

mdmrn, 3 months ago

@renwillis @jcrabapple Absolutely true. And lists help a lot to keep your feed organized by topic, etc.

renwillis, 3 months ago

@mdmrn @jcrabapple haven't bothered with lists, personally, but glad it's there for people who want them!

mdmrn, 3 months ago

@renwillis @jcrabapple I find them VERY helpful. For one, I have a list that's all news that I can mute from my main timeline, while still following all of them.

Also, it just helps me for sorting who I follow, so I can more easily find music posts, anime posts, etc.

@mdmrn @jcrabapple awesome! I'm good with it all smashed together!

mdmrn, 3 months ago

@renwillis @jcrabapple And that's fair! I'm used to the old TweetDeck format, so I use Masto on desktop using the Enhanced Web Format with different columns for my different lists.

@mdmrn @jcrabapple nice! yeah, that's too much for me. I always give the enhanced UI a try and immediate "nope" right back out lol.

ha!

@renwillis @jcrabapple I get you! To each their own.

Which is another bonus for Mastodon!

Also, in between finding folks to follow, you can follow hashtags, too! It's the greatest thing!

I gave up #tumblr at least three years ago. I came here when Musx took a big X. If I can do it, you can do it.

@mdmrn
I don't have #tumblr.
I don't have #facebook.
The only reason I have an #X account is for gay porn.

#Mastodon is the only social media account I have bc it's the only social account worth having.

@5klp471 Mastodon / Fedi are great social media experiences. Emphasis on the social, compared to Twitter / X, etc.

That seems like a boneheaded move on multiple levels.

@mdmrn Woah I thought Tumblr wants to integrate to Fedi. What's (again) happening there?
