    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.

      @tylerlwsmith you can also follow hashtags on your interests to find your people.

        @tylerlwsmith

        Your best bet it to follow all those hashtags. That will populate your home feed with topics you're interested in.

          @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

            @tylerlwsmith i recommend @llamasoft_ox - he's got sheep and a pony, and he does stuff with game stuff with computers but I'm there for the sheep and the pony. And the weekly trip to somewhere local for a nice curry.

                    @tylerlwsmith follow @dgar . He's funny, makes music, and brings good vibes. And occasionally he retoots stuff from really cool other people, that do interesting stuff

                        Following people with similar interests is cool and all.

                        But what I like is people who have different interests and experience.

                        The mediaeval historian who went investigating why eels where everywhere in records of the time.

                        The guy trying to work out why there is a faint am radio station replaying the same songs everyday, where there shouldn't be any signal

                        The bee keeper
                        The info sec guy
                        People doing niche hobbies
                        The retro computer people

                        Stuff I didn't know about, but have learnt from.

                        Add some artists, pet pictures, nature photos etc to cleanse

                        @SuperMoosie @tylerlwsmith Who was chasing radio signals?

                        Which beekeeper do you mean?

                        "Surprised Eel Historian" (greenleejw) used to be on historians.social, but that instance no longer exists. I think they disappeared with it rather than migrate to another instance.

                                      I was going to suggest picking a few interesting hashtags and then follow anyone who posts anything interesting to those.

                                        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.

                                          @Bene Thanks for the shout out 🤩

                                          I've been a bit slow on the drawing front lately, but I hope that improves as spring approaches 🙏
