I love how people who have been here less tthan a day, but have been active, already have 30+ followers... really goes to show how much easier it is to connect to people here than it is on twitter.
@freemo There's probably a selection effect here too, given the somewhat sizeable exodus from most of the science Twitter community who are relinking with other members of their circle here.

probably also because on Mastodon the home timeline is populated mainly by the person I'm following, so I need to follow accounts.
I'm following also hashtags, but it is also a way for finding interesting accounts to follow.
