Also @scalzi
@mz4250 wrt minis.
For queer culture and sexuality and geekish humour uh uh that's kinda unavoidable? Try looking at what's trending on your local server...
You can use the web interface to check what's trending on other servers too

@ombialik I'm a bit biased, but maybe @gendercensus? (It's my project but it's definitely #queer culture and very nerdy!)

@ombialik
A good trick is that when you find somebody whose posts you like, take a look at what people they follow (or boost). Chances are they're interesting to you as well.I know a form of following lists is coming. But I agree that the initial finding people is the most difficult part here. Once you have enough people, finding new people happens naturally through their boosts.

My experience has been that the more people you follow, the better your timeline is.
I found that the amount of fun I was having made a jump once I got over around 600 accounts.
I found a few people I liked at first, then followed who they followed. Then looked in that group's follows and repeated the same.
Then as people liked or boosted my posts. I would follow them and go thru their follows and add people found there.
It takes a bit of time.
Good luck and welcome.

And then follow the people who are followed by the people you like so far.

@ombialik follow frequently.
At first, don’t try to figure out whether they are quality or not, just follow.
Then Unfollow. If needed. -

Follow tags, not people.
