Hello. I am new to mastodon, just made my account. I chose mstdn.ca. Who should I follow that isn't boring? memes, humour, news, leftist politics, shitposts, etc. or is it serious at all times like bluesky?

I follow Hashtags, first. Sometimes someone says something I find striking, I check their post history & follow if really interesting. But mostly, hashtags.

Follow hashtags of topics that interest you and follow people on there you like after looking at their profile then follow people they boost that you like and slowly get follows that way is how i would recommend.

follow a few hashtags of what interests you, then follow people who post what you like under those hashtags. once you follow a few people, you'll see what they boost (that's like retweet on xitter), and you can follow the authors of the boosted posts.
