My 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!

Another key #tip for increasing the visibility of your own posts is to use #hashtags that people are likely to follow (or have pinned in their clients).

@burndive That’s true. I’ll still take recommendations from people I know I like before I peek at a firehose of random people, but it’s something 🙂
@matt
Most hashtags I'm interested in are more of a trickle than a firehose, but in general it's better for everyone to use hashtags to mark the topics they are discussing, because that's also the only way to search.
