@GottaLaff But only if enough people "see you". For those that are new and didn't bring a bunch of friends to help expand your follows you must do the work yourself, just like twitter. Boost and follow and try different times of the day. I have seen a few "I'm lonely" and yes, it's always hard to move to a new place. Mastodon has so many truly kind people though, it won't take long.

@ncw413 That's not the issue. I have no problem getting a lot of followers, and good ones. It's not about boosts or follows, nor is it hard to move, I'm on several platforms now. It was trying to figure out how something works, and nobody bothered to respond.

@GottaLaff I get you, I'm not using Post anymore for various reasons myself. You have over 5k followers but take the time to communicate with me, I just want everyone to go out and follow new people so they can have those connections too. I followed you, and now follow all the people you mention in your toots and I'm having a great time with it all. I hardly remember what that was like on bird.
