I love what Firefish is attempting to do, but I’m much more impressed with the Ice Cubes app for Mastodon. It works really well and has that ‘twitter’ feel. I’ll be honest, the official Mastodon app just isn’t very good & I think lots of folks have had a bad experience with it. It seems like when they try a 3rd party app, their experience is much better.
One of the things that really enhanced my experience on Mastodon is following hashtags. It allows you to more or less create your own algorithm to see topics you are interested in. It also seems like the importance of hashtags isn’t relayed to new users.
I follow the #americana on Mastodon and there is a some pretty good recommendations for music that come from the hashtag. Is there any way to elegantly boost a Mastodon "toot" to a Lemmy community?
