I really want to use Mastodon, but it’s so empty. Even if you try to engage with people, outside of a handful of cliques, a lot of furries, and people with extreme or niche views on specific subjects it’s pretty dead.
There’s actually a crapton of people out there, it’s just that there isn’t an alogarithm delivering their toots to you. You actually have to go out there and stuff people into your followers until Lists become useful. Which isn’t for everyone tbh
That hasn’t been my experience. I just don’t have the bandwidth for Lemmy, Discord, and Mastodon. (And before somebody says “Ditch Discord!”…I have friends on there, so that makes it hard.)

Have you tried following tags? I found a lot of people that way.
I get like 500 toots per day in my feed, I can’t keep up :/
