    In the early days of the old guard, there was no algorithm or suggestions either. You had to put in the effort. Finding interesting people to follow is such a breath of fresh air. It’s taken me months of on-again-off-again usage to find a good flow of interesting people to follow.

    Best advice is to find someone you already know and follow from the old places, then look at who they are following or boosting and follow others too. Some high volume posters/boosters will help you discover other interesting people. Or might just annoy you in which case you just unfollow and start again.
