what is the algorithmic logic of Mastodon feeds? how do i get found?
@jeffreyfisher you get found by new people when someone boosts one of your posts, because then that reaches all the other person's followers.
Like in this case @festal boosted your post so I got to see it, because I follow @festal
Then I got curious to see who you are, so I looked at your profile and the things you posted. If you had posted some more interesting stuff I would have followed you- I want interesting stuff, so if you want to attract me as a follower then post interesting stuff 🙂
@jeffreyfisher oh and one more way to make others find you is to comment on other people's posts, when others reading those posts will see your comment and they might choose to follow you. @festal
