I found myself at not being able to find something that sparks my interest to follow on Mastodon. So please share with me your interesting finds. No restrictions...

I'm not interested in promoting or advertising. The vast majority of my tweets where just sharing random things I came across while working, or reminders when I encounter gotchas (e.g. slices as function parameters in Go).

Being completely honest, not overly interested in meeting people either. I'll give it a few months and see how it goes :)

Aha! Sounds like we just have different definitions of "content creator", that just sounds like a normal account to me. In that case, you'll be fine, just remember to hashtag everything for discoverability.

Fyi it's also a custom to make an intro post when you join, tag it with #introduction and just let people know what to expect from your account. Load it up with the relevant tags so people watching them find your account, it's usually a good way to kick things off and get some initial followers.

Enjoy! :)

This was probably just me confusing things =]. I used to post all my blog posts etc on Twitter, but I have no intention of doing that on Mastodon. I didn't spend enough time ensuring there was a distinction between the two platforms.

Ah ok, thanks! I have already started posting but I'll do that anyway. Thanks :)
