If you have just joined Mastodon and it all seems a bit, we'll, quiet...
That's how it works. If you want more on your timeline follow more people. See who they follow, follow them, use hashtags to find stuff you're interested in and follow that.
Unlike twitter, Mastodon won't push content at you, it won't promote tweets or guess that, because you like this thing, you probably like that thing.
It's up to you. Try mining my follows for starters, there's good people there.
