Kind of completely depends on what topics you find "interesting". I never quite got the point of following people, myself, it's why I wasn't on Twitter. But thankfully on Mastodon you can follow topics via hashtags instead and just dip into the interesting convos without having to deal with whatever other nonsense people talk about on a daily basis cluttering up your feed.
Interestingly that's also how Twitter used to work, but I understand it's quite different nowadays so people struggle a bit with changing back to topic-focused.
Would you mind sharing how to follow hashtags? Couldn't figure it out n the mobile app.
On mobile I use the Tusky app and there's a follow icon in the top right when you're viewing a hashtag feed. Imagine it depends which app you're on though!

Yeah no, the default app doesn't have this feature for some weird unknown reason.
