Who should I be following in the Fediverse? Twitter just makes me sad, and I need a new place to find people doing interesting things.

I'm interested in software development in any programming language, game development, web development, UI, design, and home lab stuff. I'm not interested in AI.

Drop your recommendations below!

@tylerlwsmith I suggest you follow:

@SaraSoueidan
@stephaniewalter
@adactio
@tink
@SheHacksPurple
@cwebber
@jensimmons
@Floppy

And a lot more awesome people I forgot about.

@brunogirin great list, thank you! I hit the follow button for everyone on it 😊

@tylerlwsmith @brunogirin Just checking: do you know that you can follow hashtags on Fediverse, rather than just individual accounts?

That's how I found most individual people I follow — by seeing their posts in my hashtag follow feed.

@dmbaturin @tylerlwsmith @brunogirin What hashtags do you recommend? I'm fairly new myself and all the ones I've seen so far are low user/activity.

Edit: I found some, but still open to recommendations
