@verretor Still waiting for the event that makes crypto twitter flood back into Mastodon. I guess its a series of cuts, instead of just one big event.
@TallTim Yeah. Very few of us still use Mastodon.
@verretor Just like few people used Bitcoin way back. I'm comfortable being early.
@htimsxela @TallTim @verretor maybe we should put up a follow list for newcomers? It's true that the federated structure of Mastodon is a bit surprising when you come from Twitter, a lot of interesting people are on other instances and you can't find them easily.
Another solution is to boost more those people so that they pop up in your instance own tl and others can discover them too
@Sosthene @htimsxela @verretor I agree that mastodon is like a throwback to fidonet. If you have people you follow on other instances please post them so I can check them out. Appreciated.
@TallTim @Sosthene @verretor
here is a quick list of users I follow from other instances that post btc/otherwise-sorta-related-and-interesting stuff. In no particular order:
@harding @orionwl @laurentmt @stevenroose @AvatarX @fribbledom @liberliver @emzy @waxwing @raucao @vbhide @pjb @taoeffect @kukks
I haven't really explored the Gab instance at all, but I get the impression there are more btc-interested users there.

Now that I have all you guys' attention: I'd like to encourage everyone to use hashtags if they can. Even just cryptographic stuff vaguely related to #bitcoin can be tagged as such IMO. The normal timeline is noisy and it's easy to miss stuff on a weekend, but my #bitcoin column usually has max 3 posts per day.
@vbhide @htimsxela Thanks for the mention and the follow.
