Do you use the Explore page to view trending posts, news, and hashtags?
In the official iOS/Android clients, these are under the icon. Other clients might call it something else!
@brook yes, and I *really* wish it had a way to indicate "this post is from a person you don't follow - click here to do so"
The lack of an algorithm is much-touted on Mastodon, and it is certainly a good thing to reduce surveillance capitalism - but, if the best way to find content is to follow interesting people, the system should make it easy to do so!
@scubbo @brook This is one of the reasons I'd love to see a profile card on mouse hover (like Tw*tter has), that includes a Follow button. I know it's been requested ... https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/14918
