Thomas Gronfeldt#newonmastodon question: what’s a good way to find people to follow? My usuals strategy from back in my Twitter days of checking who those I follow, follow, doesn’t work because of the server setup.
Rylan@tgs My strategy on Mastodon has been find people that boost a variety of other people which exposes me to a lot of different accounts. Then when I see a boost post of someone new to me, I check their profile to see if I should follow.
I always err on the side of Follow Now, Decide Later if I’m unsure, so I can taste test someone’s posts in my feed if I think I might like them
The accounts I follow with high quality boosts in #InfoSec , #Tech & some other topics:
- @GossiTheDog
- @neil
- @hacks4pancakes
- @dnsprincess (how I found you!)
Bonus: my instance’s admin (@jerry ) boosts a lot of relevant accounts on my instance - and also @notjustbikes boosts lots of cool people that like bikes, trains, & mass transit
