@Em0nM4stodon yeah, because its 'real time' its easy sometimes to feel like its shouting into the void! So hashtags are so important and as you say ... Boosts !!

@Em0nM4stodon I will boost this for the sake of boosting the post talking about how cool boosting is

@Em0nM4stodon especially for small instances 😊

@Em0nM4stodon
Mastodons lack of an algorithm is a blessing and a curse.
When I only see new toots on my timeline it means I can go a long time without seeing certain content creators / artists I follow.
So you’re right about boosting interesting posts!

@Em0nM4stodon No just change your to read more Hashtags or personal pages instead of following. For me Boosting is often like spam. Same Stuff twice. So no i am team Whats new like discover boosted one or right now posted on my server. Instead of boosted followers in my timeline.

@Em0nM4stodon as a newbie here, thank you for this wisdom!

@Em0nM4stodon I'd like to boost more, but I feel like my local instance would vibe with the lack of CW on political posts on many of the posts I see. Maybe quote posts will help 🫤

@Em0nM4stodon
If it's beauty or kind humor or super interesting - then yes, I boost.

I prefer to 'like' posts that I agree with / support but don't want to flood my followers with negativity. Yes, I can CW. I figure at this point, folks who want to engage with politics will have already found accounts to follow.

@Em0nM4stodon@infosec.exchange you used the wrong logo at the end. ​​
Fediverse is not the same as mastodon 😉
