Kind of non-sense comparing different categories. I wish Mastodon had ways for me to be discovered, I’m in the dark here

That's a feature in Mastodon not a bug 🙃 /s.

Thanks for the feedback on categories.

As for discoverability, posting frequently to your local community can help you reach a wider audience. Additionally, using relevant hashtags can significantly boost your content's visibility, as many people use them to find new content.

If Ur being active enough and use the relevant hashtag, people would notice u eventually.

As a general rule, try to also include a description of who you are on your profile. If you're active people will check in, if you give some sort of description there they are more likely to actually follow you.

Usually when someone follows me I'll check out their profile, if they look interesting I'll follow them back. If their profile is empty I usually won't.
