@Squidquid Option #1: Search for a hashtag. If it exists, and it's halfway active, follow it. No, I'm not kidding you, you can do that on Mastodon.

Option #2: the people section on fediverse.info.

Option #3: No matter which instance you're on, go to mastodon.social with your Web browser and search it for interesting hashtags. This may reveal to you more people who are interested in those topics/write about those topics.

Also, if you want to learn more about the Fediverse beyond Lemmy (and beyond Mastodon, for that matter), go follow [email protected]. It's a public forum on Friendica. You'll learn soon enough what Friendica is.
