Hey all! I'm interested in creating an account on mastodon, and am looking to build up a list of people to follow. Let me know who your must follows are!

@[email protected] is a must follow for me.

Beyond that let finding people happen organically. Focus on finding hastags and groups to follow, then the interesting people will start to bubble up in your feed naturally. See also.

And if you're on a niche/topical server don't forget to get an eye on your local feed. It gets swamped on big instances but can be a great discovery tool on smaller ones.
