Alright! So one fine day I decided to check the Fediverse out and eventually joined mastodon. I’ve downloaded the Megalodon app on my phone and everything. And now I’m at a loss on what to do with it. In reality, how do you use Mastodon? I’ve never used Twitter before, so I’m completely new to this form of social media. All I saw were people talking about strange topics only they understood with no engagement whatsoever, and the other posts were straight up anime furry porn left and right. I only found out about Lemmy today. and it’s even amazing than I expected. I’d love to hear how you use the Fediverse platforms and any tips you have.

    Notably, you can follow hashtags in Mastodon, in addition to people. My Mastodon feed is pretty well tuned to my interests because I went through and followed a bunch of hashtags I’m interested in.

    However, I much prefer the format of reddit so Lemmy is probably a better fit for me.
