Mastodon has a discovery problem.

There, I said it.

I really like it here and appreciate that the level of discourse is better than Twitter, but 2 problems:

- it feels like I'm not finding new voices frequently at all
- there's no sense of zeitgeist here

Different problems, but I think both related to the lack of algorithms.

@acjay

You are not wrong. Here we need to be more proactive to find new voices, instead of passively finding them there. And it can be a good thing or a bad thing. Certainly room for improvement. Maybe the #explore feature will help.

zeitgeist might come with time, as it does.
