@njbair @pluralistic Welcome!
It can be a little quiet here, until you find people to follow. As you're probably aware, there's no ad algorithm pushing things at new users.
After I found the people I wanted to follow, this place is hopping.
If you want a crazy busy hilarious feed every Sunday evening, follow the #monsterdon hashtag and watch (mostly terrible) monster movies with us.

We all do that at first. But eventually most of us settle down into blathering about our hobbies, posting pictures of our pets, and bitching about politics.

Welcome.
Following hashtags is one of the neatest things here.
I follow #Monsterdon and participate in #BikeNite
And if you like a hashtag you can mute it.
Another neat feature is you can follow someone, but also NOT follow their boosts (I boost way too much).

@njbair @pluralistic This place absolutely runs on hashtags. Particularly for discovery! I wrote up a little bit on that here, people seem to find it helpful:

@cainmark @njbair @pluralistic I have list called Boosty, add boosty people and mark it so it doesn't show up in my main timeline. So when I'm in the mood for boosty its there.

@njbair @pluralistic Try the #introduction hashtag for reach.

@oheso @njbair @pluralistic Actually just edit your post and add the hashtag. Mastodon has traditionally been hashtag heavy.
