I really want to stay with #mastodon
Threads and Bluesky I feel will all just eventually go the way of #enshittification
What are some tips on improving my experience?
Should I change my server from qoto.org?
Should I use a third party app? Currently I'm rocking the official app (I think)
Any other tips?
@weberam2 Follow people who people you follow follow. Follow people who seem vaguely interesting.
Without the algorithm, follows should be *much* cheaper (you can always unfollow later).
If you don't build up a good base of people to follow, this place will seem barren. But once you get that good list, it's just as lively and fun as anywhere else.
Also, consider setting up Lists based on hashtags you find interesting; that'll also help you to find new people to follow.
As for servers, QOTO is a good one. The only reason I'd seriously consider switching is if I someday launch my own instance.
@LouisIngenthron Thanks!
