Hello from my new #Mastadon account. I deleted #Facebook, #Pinterest, #Instagram & #BlueSky. I hope this forum is not so American-centric. Here's to #gardening #nature #flowers and #maincoons !
@vcallinan For whatever it’s worth, when I switched over about four years ago one of the things that struck me (happily) was the internationalism (?) of it

@bucachowchow Looking forward to that! It's a big/small world, let's all engage!

Hi from Europe!
Great that you unplugged from US tech!
Here are numerous folks from Canada, Europe, Australia, NZ and more.
Since you used plenty of hashtags, you seem to be well-prepared to fill your timeline.
In the unlikely event you don't know, following hashtags is a great way to find content of interest to you.
In addition to the ones you used, you may also want to try
bloomscrolling
flowers
[names of flowers/plants you like]
(names of animals you like]If you 1/2
2/2 are into pets, there are hashtags like
catsofMastodon
Caturday
dogsofMastodon
etc.If you're into hashtag games or musical hasht
ag games, there's stuff as well yet not straightforward to find. Let me know in case you'd like a nudge towards these hashtags.Have fun!

PS: You can filter (=mute) hashtags here and also mute boosts. Since I toot and boost a lot of US politics stuff, you may want to make use of these features!

@vcallinan
You have the option of using the 'mute' option to quietly ignore any new posts of an individual user. There isn't a 'mute all posts from sites hosted in an entire country' <I think.>
Mastodon is an evolving software package and that might be introduced in a later version. I would personally regret to see that. -

@vcallinan Greetings from Ireland, the other place besides Newfoundland where people speak Irish.
You'll find plenty of flowers in the Burren -- Callinan country

A great many of us are boycotting everything American (the Irish invented the boycott).

@vcallinan St John’s has finally thawed enough to start thinking about planting. However, my ambition - growing hot peppers - is gonna require hydroponics anyway. It’s on my list of things to figure out.
