trying to find a community on here is so weirdly hard. i don’t know what it is about mastodon but i feel very disconnected from everyone somehow. hopefully that’ll change with time!
LiteralGrill@canineical I was the same way here to start and it did get better.
Following hashtags directly helped me a good deal, and just plain following folks I had good interactions with. You can always unfollow if they suck later!
