This is a good place to find people who want to be found under certain interests: https://communitywiki.org/trunk

Once you start following people on these lists, you're more likely to be exposed to even more people that talk about your interests!

I for one post about my #homelab and #selfhosting!

[sarajw@front-end.social]

Oh hi @sysop408 @tylerlwsmith !

Definitely check out https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@eniko. And https://infosec.exchange/@0xabad1dea *even if* (not saying that's all) just for the Odin photos and anecdotes.

Also you've been here for a while, but if you haven't already, then once you have a handful of people who post stuff you like to see also go through their timelines and check out hashtags they use, and follow appropriately.

[brunogirin@mastodon.me.uk]

@tylerlwsmith I suggest you follow:

@SaraSoueidan
@stephaniewalter
@adactio
@tink
@SheHacksPurple
@cwebber
@jensimmons
@Floppy

And a lot more awesome people I forgot about.

@tylerlwsmith follow hashtags for a while, see who you find

[com@mastodon.social]

@tylerlwsmith @rysiek Follow hashtags! Then you’ll see the posts about topics you like, and will find new people who post on those topics. E.G., #buildInPublic, #webDev, #programming, #devTools, #UI, #homeLab

[jubalbarca@scholar.social]

@tylerlwsmith Lots of people on the game dev instances. @MAMG and @Exilian might both be of interest on the game dev adjacent side?
