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 đ

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

@antonej immagino che il tema sia facilmente sostituibile, ma d'altra parte KDE nasce proprio per emulare l'ambiente windows per chi non vuole faticare nel passaggio

Current task: upgrading some FreeBSD hosts and jails from 14.3-RELEASE to 15.0-RELEASE.
