I have one bit of advice for new arrivals, because it seems to me a significant number of those who don't like it here are unaware of this:
FOLLOW HASHTAGS
That's the thing about Mastodon. You follow hashtags the same as you follow people. And that's how you get introduced to new people/things that you're interested in.
Click on this hashtag here: #birds. As well as seeing lots of exciting bird content, there's also a follow button at the top. That's how your Mastodon feed gets full of good stuff.
EDIT: Apparently you *still* can't do this in the official app. Yeesh. Sorry. It works in browser, or in many other apps - I can recommend Tusky for Android. I hear Ivory is good for iPhone?
Honestly, the biggest problem with this (otherwise wonderful) platform is that the official app is pants.
