How to get discovered on Mastodon? (lemmy.zip)

submitted 2 months ago by [email protected] to c/fediverse

From my experience on Mastodon, it is almost impossible to be found.

Some of my toots feel like shouting into a void.

Is there anyway around this?

Post stuff others will want to boost and follow you for. Engage with others in a friendly and generous manner. Have fun, there is no algorithm to game.

The notion of being "discovered" and (implied) launching an influencer career is... probably a long shot on Mastodon, where people enjoy shitposts more than celebrities.
