May I make a suggestion? It can feel weird here at first. I think if you have just joined, engage with those you follow. You will be seen and will get involved in the conversation. Remember to not just like toots, but to also boost. I have tried to follow back everyone that has followed me.

Please follow new accounts, don’t leave them lonely. We want them all to stay so we should be supporting everyone making the leap from Twitter to Mastodon. It’s logical 🖖

@SpockResists I tooted the other day, in fact, that I'm having a blast being the very first follower of new accounts.

The only time I hesitate is when they have no posts at all and/or no bio explaining what they're about.

@GottaLaff Yes I have seen that today. I am a lot of peoples “first follow.” I followed all back. I can always unfollow if they turn out to be not nice. 🖖🖖😀

@SpockResists Exactly! And yes, it took me hours and hours too. Every day.

@SpockResists @GottaLaff There are certain kinds of predators on all platforms, that have nothing at all to do with politics. I am cautious.

@GottaLaff I also think that new accounts may not have learnt how to do their bio or profile pic etc yet. 🖖🖖🖖🖖

@SpockResists Hahah, yes, I noticed that. It's like the old egg.

@Jenfeds1073 Where in Canada are you? We recently got perm residency, so we split our time between Calif. and BC. @SpockResists

@Jenfeds1073 Ugh, so I've heard. I hope you guys can overcome that at some point. Really worrisome. @SpockResists
