Reposting: Please for heavens sake, please put some sort of human bio up on your #mastodon account if you want folks to follow you. Also some sort of photo would be good too. If the photo is not of you, explaining the connection to you in your bio is very helpful for people. Finally, put hashtags in your bio of groups or threads you want to belong to. Like #histodons and #histodon for historians. Cheers!
