.....fuck it, imma just ask. Where are my fellow black folks? #blackmastodon #blackfolk I'm learning a bunch on here but the only time I see a face that looks like mine is when I search the hashtags above. And it's the same 3 people in the results. #pointmetowardsthecookout

I follow some. I guess this is, what, chronological from when I followed? I left out those with have a padlock icon for follow requests, assuming they don't wanna be tagged in a post like this. I hope this helps:

@JimInverse Sadly this does seem to be a common refrain. I think it's a real shame, and I hope it changes. Maybe if someone were so inclined they could make a Mastodon instance for black folk specifically?
Black Twitter

Remember when you first heard about Black twitter and thought it was actually a separate website? Was that just me?

Mastodon hosted on blacktwitter.io
@JimInverse If famous people help, I know Nnedi Okorafor is on Mastodon -- @nnedi
@JimInverse Whassup. Most of my interests on Mastodon carried over from Twitter. Apple and general tech pundits and developers, liberal political, law, science reporters, and experts. I didn’t particularly follow Afrocentric Twitter, so it’s interesting when I hear people decry Mastodon for lacking representation. It should be better, but it’s not something I look for.
@JimInverse greetings! Fair warning my content is entirely random.
@[email protected] are quite a few of us on here and we all use that hashtag, as well as #BlackFriday. you can also try @[email protected] and @BlackMastodon
@JimInverse not Black, but definitely Brown and Afro-Caribbean πŸ‡΅πŸ‡· πŸ‘‹πŸ½
@JimInverse @cyclinggeezr posts mostly cycling content but is pretty active
@JimInverse @ThisPlaceAgain was asking seems pretty connected in, she has a lot of followers/follows, might help?
@JimInverse I thought I was the only one seeing the same few people. πŸ˜…πŸ˜‚ This post is super helpful! Let me follow y'all! 🀎🀎🀎

@JimInverse

I will boost you for more exposure and provide these two I like immensely off top of my head...and more later when I can...

@cyclinggeezr

Missed that you were already mentioned. You are popular!

@JimInverse @Axel_Folio has an account but no presence, but maybe if she sees this she can point you in the right direction
@JimInverse I make a point of following anyone outside of my demographic, so it may be worth scrolling through my follows. There's quite a few BIPOC folx in there who enrich my feeds on a daily basis!

Great to see you in the fediverse.
@JimInverse I think the Fediverse is actually the same 20-30 people being boosted over and over.
