Who to follow on mastodon?

I follow Hashtags, first. Sometimes someone says something I find striking, I check their post history & follow if really interesting. But mostly, hashtags.

well, remember mastodon is just a platform of the twitterverse side of the fediverse.

theres more than just mastodon! george takei (@georgetakei@universeodon.com) is a good one...i also enjoy the devils panties (@DevilsPanties@mastodon.sdf.org)

Least boring of my follows:

follow a few hashtags of what interests you, then follow people who post what you like under those hashtags. once you follow a few people, you'll see what they boost (that's like retweet on xitter), and you can follow the authors of the boosted posts.

Every week we have a "monsterdon" watch party where we all watch the same movie at the same time and comment on it under #monsterdon.

Here's more info on the movie we're watching today: https://lemmy.ca/post/61058449

There are various other watch parties too, see a calendar here: https://livetweety.wordpress.com/

Follow hashtags of topics that interest you and follow people on there you like after looking at their profile then follow people they boost that you like and slowly get follows that way is how i would recommend.

I also find it hard to get a diverse and interesting feed on mastodon to the point I am barely using it. But you should definitely follow: https://framapiaf.org/@davidrevoy

I'm still new to it, personally I go to 'trending' and follow people I notice because they posted a couple interesting things recently. That choice can be very personal. For instance my 3 favorites right now are George Takei, Hitchiker's Guide Quote Bot, and Coffee date with ADHD - to each their own :)

These are my favourites random ones:

• Information Is Beautiful
• Lex Knows Systems
• The Oatmeal(Exploding Kittens createor)
• Keyboards
