I still don't know how to use mastodon, I feel like I'm only here to share my stuff and read replies, and less so any kind of discovery of following and engaging with other people's stuff

it seems like there's only a chronological feed of those you follow (which I usually don't like because it skews to the most active people), and a generic feed for your instance (pretty much useless), but no algorithmic discovery thing?

@acegikmo For me discovery really was through hashtags, but honestly for learning about graphics it was by following graphics people.

About the local timelime, this only makes sense on a thematic instance, since I'm on a gamedev instance the local TL it's mostly just about gamedev, which for me it's a good thing.

On my personal account I'm on an brazilian instance, I don't check much tbh, but it's still more focused and on topic on what happens here.

@acegikmo Unfortunately mastodon's default frontend only allows navigating the local TL of my own instance, to see from the others instances I need to use the moshidon app :/
