Matt BirchlerMy number one #Mastodon tip for people is to boost more!
Discovery sucks on Mastodon, which is partially by design, but it also means it’s hard to find new and interesting people here. If you see something cool, reach for that boost button as well!
Stan James 🏳️🌈@matt I’m a Mastodon noob, but try to boost when it makes sense to do so.
For hashtags, I have a question. I don’t post much directly (I mostly just reply here and there) but when I post a sketch I’ve done (for example), I’m not sure what hashtag to use for it. Is there a resource or preference for hashtags on Mastodon?
Stella-Luna Observatory ✨🌙@stanjames No reply? I'd suggest hashtags related to the content. If it's a manga drawing, hashtag sketch, hashtag manga, also hashtag the subject. If it's something that may offend or be NFW, you can CW -- put it behind a Content Warning which will hide the art until a viewer clicks to reveal.
