I’ve been trying Mastodon for about a week now and using hashtags like everyone suggests, but I’m not getting any interaction with my posts. I’ve looked up hashtags as well and they seem to either have posts filled with nonsense gibberish or no posts at all. I’m not giving up on it just yet though.
Lemmy has been excellent in comparison.
I’m with you. Signed up for Mastodon months ago when Twitter lost me the same way Reddit has. I’m acclimating to using tags to find content I’m interested in, but now the posts that do show up related to my interests have next to zero engagement, making it hard to want to engage myself. At least it’s pretty good for gaming news and stuff like that.
