I would like to follow some nice and informative mastodon accounts. Any recommendation?

    Follow #hashtags, my friend.

    That’s the easiest way to find people with interests like your own.

      Yeah thanks, that is the way. I found very often content related to tech and FOSS, wich is great.

        True, it depends on the hashtag. Stuff like #woodworking & #dadjokes have worked out well for me.

        #Videogames is just a barrage of Youtube spam & people saying that they’re streaming on Twitch.

        I had to unfollow most generic hashtags because it was just random people talking about anything and using the tags, often in foreign language, or it was some personal stuff I don’t care about. It really gave me a bad first impression since it made mastodon look more like facebook or sth where people dump their personal stuff online, rather than a valid news source.

        I’d instead recommend just following news or publications or groups that actually curate their content.
