If there was one piece of advice I could give to new Mastodon users who are finding their feeds quiet or boring, it is to follow as many people and hashtags as you can. This is not Twitter; there is no algorithm, it is not going to fill your feed with stuff it thinks you like. You have to curate it yourself. Once you do, though, it's so much more vibrant and rewarding than Twitter has been for a year. #TwitterMigration #Twitter
@godlessmom how can you follow hashtags?

@WeavingWithAI @godlessmom On the iPad using the Ivory App you can press on a hashtag you find interesting and a pop-up appears where you can choose to follow the hashtag (or unfollow, if you already followed it).

You can also search for hashtags to find posts with them.

Hope it helps.
