I'd like to use Mastodon a little more and I want to find some new accounts to follow. I also thought this would be a fun way for all of us to engage about the platform! What are your favorite accounts that you follow?

    I probably should have said that haha

    Elena is a journalist who is big in the Fediverse. She just put out a video about it. You should be able to find it on her posts.

    Westenberg is another writer who moved to the fediverse

    Yeah I find it easier to find new content that I like on reddit and Lemmy (though I don't use reddit anymore), though Mastodon, BlueSky, and Twitter I have a harder time getting into due to just not discovering much.

    I just like what they post. If I find an interesting post (usually because someone I follow boosted it), I look at the author's other posts, and if I find them interesting, I follow them.

    There is also a list of accounts with the most followers: https://fedidb.com/accounts.

    What, no coach Gowron? That's unforgivable.

    I've just realized that the coach hasn't posted since March, and now I'm sad.

    Also @auschwitzmuseum@mastodon.world

    I follow George Takei and Cory Doctorrow, too.

    I love Technology Connections as a YT channel, and I enjoy their posts on Mastodon under their account @TechConnectify@mas.to, though most are simply advertising new videos for their YT channel.

    @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu

    Only one I follow that is not specialized. It's less gloom and doom then other news :)
