@xtaldave It's generally accepted to write an #introduction post and pin it on top of the profile.
Then again, if you look at a lot of users that have been here for a long time that is not really the case.
If you look at my profile you have a brief introduction and one in Spanish because I wished to enter the circle of people from over there.
I also started my experience on Mastodon trying to find interesting people to follow.
I discourage you from doing that.
Try to rely more on the local timeline to find interesting people and expand from there.
I'm currently writing down several notes on my experience on Mastodon and I wish to transform those into a guide to socializing on the Fediverse.
Unfortunately, there are a lot of guides which explain the technical aspects of the fediverse but no real how to use and what to do guide for new people...

No, a lot of people already did the job exceptionally.
You can search on the internet and you'll find a lot of well written articles about it.
I suggest you do read a little bit about it if you use Mastodon, no need to get too much in detail though.
