I am always glad to see a Fediverse influx! I am often surprised that other networks are more popular - of all the places I post, I get the most boosts and replies here. You don't necessarily go viral, but people are genuinely actively engaged and curious and supportive of what you're doing. (Tumblr is in second place!)
Obviously every social network has its issues, I'm not saying Mastodon/the Fediverse is perfect, but in terms of reaching lots of interesting and interested and real people it's unrivalled.
@cassolotl I heard someone say once that on the Fediverse you don't go viral, you go fungal because there is an underground network of interaction that occasionally pops up in surprising ways (perhaps after a rainfall) and I really liked that! :D

My top tip for getting into Mastodon is:
1) Make a post that says "hi, I'm interested in..." followed by like 10 hashtags about your interests.
2) Click and follow all the hashtags in your post.
3) People will boost your post and it'll go further because of the hashtags, due to the nature of the fediverse. Follow all the people who boost you; you can unfollow later if it's too many people.

They have an algorithm, we have hashtags.

Hello!
I'm Cassian, I'm nonbinary (they/them) and I live in Wales. I mostly post about TV I'm watching, surveys I'm interested in, being neurodivergent, environment stuff, things I'm making, and spontaneous grumpy rants of little consequence.
I do the @gendercensus annually.
I first tried the Fediverse over 10 years ago, but didn't really get ensconced until the first wave of Mastodon in 2016.

@Bikil @cassolotl one way to find out how relevant the comparison is, is to get a necroboost (recent boosts of comments or posts made years ago) that suddenly give new life to old posts.

@oblomov @Bikil @cassolotl I've thought about this a bit after getting a response days later to a post I'd completely forgotten about and I think it actually shows at least some people are probably engaging with the Fediverse in a healthier way than people do with social media that's algorithmically optimised for attention capture. I presume people are replying to something I said a few days ago because they're not constantly on here but just came back and saw a reply or something

@afewbugs @Bikil @cassolotl this is definitely part of it. (Although I personally am guilty of being terminally online here 8-D)

@oblomov @Bikil @cassolotl oh same! Some people are using it more healthily, I'm not saying I am 😂

@oblomov "necroboost" - that's very clever.

@maicolemirco Comprato il numero 0, comprerò anche i prossimi; ma non mi abbono, perché le riviste per posta arrivano masticate. Se fate una versione digitale allo stesso prezzo della cartacea mi abbono senz’altro.

@Fabio @RinaldoGiorgetti
Dell'ondata di freddo del 56 ho due testimonianze.
La prima di mia madre, aveva raccontato che per l'occasione nessuno era andato a lavorare. Caso eccezionale perché aveva nevicato anche nella fascia costiera della Sardegna del sudovest, classificata a clima subtropicale, ho le rose appena potate che stanno già germogliando mannaggia e alcuni giorni fa ho visto un mandorlo in fiore! In questi giorni sta facendo freddissimo (7-8°C).

@Fabio @RinaldoGiorgetti
Insomma, nella vostra famiglia vi porta il freddo :-D
Comunque una curiosa coincidenza.
Nell'85 ero già grandicello, avevo 26 anni, e ricordo bene la nevicata. Credo anche di avere delle foto del Poetto imbiancato, devo rovistare tra le foto di mia suocera, aveva la mania di fotografare tutto e naturalmente non si era persa questa occasione.
