Hi from Europe!
Great that you unplugged from US tech!
Here are numerous folks from Canada, Europe, Australia, NZ and more.
Since you used plenty of hashtags, you seem to be well-prepared to fill your timeline.
In the unlikely event you don't know, following hashtags is a great way to find content of interest to you.
In addition to the ones you used, you may also want to try
bloomscrolling
flowers
[names of flowers/plants you like]
(names of animals you like]If you 1/2

@vcallinan For whatever it’s worth, when I switched over about four years ago one of the things that struck me (happily) was the internationalism (?) of it
