    My guide to Mastodon! Simple stuff, but not necessarily obvious (to me at least).

    - Follow with reckless abandon! Follow lots of hashtags. Fill your feed!
    - Make a list with folks you especially enjoy

    Then prune:

    - Mute with reckless abandon!
    - Block assholes
    - Filter phrases and hashtags

    *Advanced*

    - Hide someone's boosts without muting if you don't want to miss their posts.
    - Make a list with news, etc. and then hide list members from your home feed to reduce noise/stress.

          @james Omg the advanced options are gold. I was following super active people and got overwhelmed by the sheer volume of their postings, so had to unfollow. But muting people's boosts and/or having lists that aren't on your homefeed would fix that for me! Thank you!
