What are you struggling with? Look for a server (that isn’t mastodon.social) that fits your interests, sign up, browse the local or global timeline, follow interesing people, have fun!
Finding a single server that fits my interests is the first stumbling block. I follow 30-40 communities here, so I need to pick just one focus, which kinda sucks, TBF.
So I picked one, It was too quiet, but it was a start, then I started looking for interesting people. Hardly anyone famous, the few that I did find ended up being the ones that turned out to be creeps in the news, even assuming they were real accounts, which is probably a generous assumption. When I finally found the few people I wanted to follow, they gradually disappeared over time to Bluesky.
WIth their community lines being split per server and no discovery other than randomly finding someone with your tastes while bebopping around on your server. It wasn’t a good experience.
I use mastodon.social and i have nearly 300 followers here. I dont know any server nor i do know how to find one that match with my interests. I am interested in generally anime, visual novel, jpop, art lgbt etc. twitter is one central website that servs all kind of people at once so it is not very quiet. mastodon.social is both quiet and I am having struggles to find someone famous and interesting entertaining here. Like bro on my feed posting something and gets zero likes. I do the same and the same happens to me.
as rumba@lemmy.zip also states that the inactivity here is a major problem i also did the same my account here is from 2023 and we are about to enter 2026. I am also a dead account here.
