A few recommendations for life on Mastodon:

1) Follow anyone you think looks potentially interesting; you can always unfollow later, and they may lead you to new people via boosted posts.

2) Boost posts you think are worthy, so others can discover new content.

3) Don't obsess on replicating your Twitter follows on Mastodon; let it be its own experience, and grow it organically. Obvs follow anyone you miss from Twitter, but this isn't a 1:1 replacement; have fun, follow your instincts.

I’m going to make a concerted effort to not post/repost anything toxic on this network. I’ll save that for the bird one. I really like the early internet vibes I get from here so far.

I think it's glorious that there's now a Mastodon server operated by people who used to work for Twitter (macaw.social). I could have never imagined it when I started in 2016.

Sorry for boosting a lot of posts. But i think its important to fill up some home feeds of new users. It´s really not easy to get something going.

If you are annoyed, you can turn boosts of:

Maybe Mastodon needs guest accounts. You could sign into another instance without creating a full new account. You wouldn't have a profile but you could boost/favorite posts from the other instance and you could see your actual state of follow connections.
