@WizWritaObscura@mastodon.social @Bwaretheleopard@mstdn.ca It starts that way. Follow some hashtags, interact (as in comment, not just like/boost) with people who post stuff you like. Follow them, then follow the people they follow who post good stuff. This process cascades until your timeline is chock full of too much interesting stuff and very close to zero bullshit. Once you get over the slow start bit, you will find this place is full of like-minded people.
