One of my favorite things to do here is to periodically browse the #introduction tag and boost new people. Such a simple way to help new people get a foothold and make the #fediverse thrive

@benlockwood yep, I follow that hashtag

[srlevine@neuromatch.social]

@benlockwood I do that sometimes, including earlier today and a few of them then followed me and I wanted to be like "oh, no, that was a poor choice, sorry about you now having to read my monologue as I do experimental baking all afternoon"

@benlockwood same here, i like to give a welcome and give starter tips to new users

[darthastrius@mastodon.social]

@benlockwood Same. I usually follow new folks unless they give me a reason not to.

@benlockwood I have never boosted them but from time to time I have answered their questions about Mastodon and the Fediverse.

[benlockwood@ecoevo.social]

@mrdk boost them

@benlockwood exactly what I’m doing!
