Mastodon is useless (to me.) (lemmy.world)

Since I've been on Lemmy, I don't know what my use is for Mastodon anymore. It's dead on there anyway. I don't have anyone to talk to and nobody responds to my posts.

People follow hashtags and search for them. Then you'll get likes and boosts.

How do I follow hashtags? I am using the official Mastodon app for Android.

You should consider switching to Megalodon. It's a fork of the official Mastodon app so it's already what you're used to but adds features like following and pinning hashtags as we as supporting markdown in posts (if your instance is using glitch-soc)

I will check it out, is following hashtags a client side feature or OG webpage supports it?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

The web client supports it too, as do other apps like Tusky and Ivory. The official app is just a weird outlier.
