It would be nice if instances automatically maintained a new and low connection count user feed so that people could browse it occasionally and help people find others to connect with.

What new Mastodonians need to understand is that they need to follow hashtags, not people. This should be the first welcoming sentence on any instance.

What hashtags do you follow? Most things I try to look up end up having a majority of the posts in Japanese or German.

#ecology for example has a lot of nice English posts.

I follow both, but a lot more people/organizations than hashtags.

Thing is, one thing people want out of a microblogging experience is the validation of followers. If it was all about the hashtags, they’d be on Reddit or Lemmy, not Twitter and Mastodon.

I like this idea! It helps get people some traction out there without them needing to put effort into fumbling around how to do it. Kind of like a push start. I’m going to start doing this!
