So it's #introduction post, I have joined mastodon this week and am getting the hang of it

I am into #beatMaking #MusicProduction #FantasyLiterature and #Music

I also like #RetroMedia #Animation and #SciFiMovies

looking for people to follow, (my home feed is a little sparse )

if you can recommend me a friend or two I would be very happy, or maybe boost this post so I can get more recommends

thank you all good folk

@xupamayne welcome to r.p, I was going to recommend you follow @cryptica but it seems that you already do!

@xupamayne
Welcome! If you like nice photos, I recommend following just about anybody who I boost. Are there any particular kind of accounts/subjects you're interested in?

@xupamayne

Follow all those hashtags you mentioned above to fill your home feed with all your favorite topics. Search for #Music for example, click through, the follow button should be top right.

Welcome @xupamayne !

You may wish to check out https://fedi.directory/ for unofficial curated lists of accounts to follow.

@MissGayle @xupamayne good advice; you can then follow people who post with those hashtags if you would like to see what else they say.

@xupamayne highly recommend expanding your about me section of your profile -- see mine and others for ideas. You can be quite verbose and its the first thing people see about you when you add them for example.
I also recommend searching any hash tags you love and looking for interesting people. Note that you can *follow* hash tags just like you follow people, and those subjects will show up in your feed.
