Hi Spencer, welcome 馃憢
If you want an easy-to-understand guide to how this place works, have a look at the website https://fedi.tips (especially the section marked "Quick Start").
Please feel free to ask if you want help with anything specific, I am trying to provide unofficial tech support on here 馃檪

if you鈥檙e new here, @FediTips are a very good first follow. they're indispensable for columbusing the nooks and crannies of the #fediverse.
but do you know what are really wonderful follows?
HASHTAGS
i follow dozens of them like #sewing #crafts #embroidery. am known as a political commentator but i have a whole other life with #fiberArts and i鈥檝e found wonderful folks thru those tags.
the fediverse doesn鈥檛 have techbro algorithms boxing you into a category.
ENJOY!
