I'm so much more used to socmed sites where folks talk to each other. It feels so silent and isolated here. Why??? I know there are humans around; my feed is full of posts but none of them seem to have any comments. It's just a bunch of folks shouting into the void.
Is it just a difference in culture here? Or am I just missing all the action somehow?
My advice is to follow hashtags for subjects you're interested in. That way, you're not missing anything, and you'll eventually find interesting people and discussions on stuff you're interested in.

@Verati404
Scanning through the responses it looks like people fell into the usual follow list discourse but didn't tell you how to get comments into your feed.One way is to view the posts on the original server - the method will depend on your instance's platform and/or the software you use to interact - I use Fedilab and have an option under Share in the overflow menu that lets me see the original post on it's originating instance.
If I try to like or boost a comment that I didn't see natively in my app, I'm asked to specify which instance *I'm* on. Then the software takes me back to my instance and federates the comment so I can interact with it.
Hope this helps!
@aaron Yes, this is quite helpful! Thank you!

How wide is a crème egg nowadays?
9 inches is 22.86cm
a regular 40g Cadbury Creme Egg is 3.5 cm wide
a small plastic fill-able egg is about 5 cm to 5.5 cm wide
a normal medium-sized chocolate Easter egg is about 8 cm wide
none of these should pose a challenge to a seasoned anal toy veteran.

There are so so many really very excellent people here, but yes you do have to find them. But once you do you'll find this is the absolutely best place by a country mile (whatever that is). My suggestion would be to follow people who are prolific boosters aswell, then follow people they boost etc. I fully agree with the above and would add @maxleibman for the lols, @amiserabilist for being the beating heart of Fedi, @batkaren for being...... whatever they are (unadulterated joy), and a whole host of other people I adore.... @Nickiquote, @rooster, @alice, @mayintoronto, @afewbugs - all of whom (that's right, I said whom) will improve your life immeasurably and would form the most unlikely team in the event of an apocalypse scenario, but do you know what..... I reckon might actually not be a bad group to be with. Genuinely reckon we could cobble together a pretty decent chance at survival. Although I realise as I write this we'd be unable to propogate the species as virtually everyone is gay, so we'd have to adopt and raise a bunch of animals instead, launching.... Humanity 2.0: Racoons.
Edit - sorry should have mentioned that we are all quite chatty aswell - not just posting stuff for engagement. Very community focused and friendly. This list is absolutely not exhaustive - there really are so many people here who are lovely connections to make.

I appreciate all the reccs! Masto itself has been unintuitive so far for me but the people here are lovely! This thread popped off way more than I was expecting, lol, but now I have a better grasp on how to make it work. It's worth the learning curve.

What would you like to talk about?
@SuperMoosie I love hearing about other places. My friend in Melbourne laments that not enough people outside of Australia know or care about it beyond the stereotypical scary wildlife, so honestly just seeing your posts about how things are is good enough for me.
Problem was that when I got to the Fediverse, I didn't know how to find anything and my feed felt really landlocked and small. I downloaded Tusky the app back in 2022 and then didn't do a lot with it.
All these replies helped a lot.

@Verati404 Depends where and how you curate. Some of all social media is just going to be filled with “people who broadcast, not converse” and some will be “people who live to troll the comments.”
A dedicated server around specific topics I find contributes greatly to the discussions people have there—some level of self-selection, and with particular focus. (Why I have more than one ID on more than one server. Different conversations/audiences and without mixing the streams.)
My one here is on a larger/generic server, so it depends who I’m seeking out and how people interact. I tend to cycle off of “broadcasters only” and lean into people who converse, and keep my follow list low. More active self-curation, but I think lends to Mastodon generally being more conversational that X/Bsky/etc. But the method takes some attention.
@athayes Yeah, there does seem to be a lot more DIY and self-initiative on the Fedi than I knew how to navigate. I'm getting the hang of it. I'm sure it'll be more rewarding than a lot of the other social media I've been on in the long run.

my friends think i am overreacting when i tell them to use condoms till they get their new partners tested.
they think if someone is nice they are safe.
it is the nice ones you need to look out for.
and with age comes increased risk.
