I feel like I need to find an #instance on Mastodon where folks in my local timeline would generally want to see most/all of my posts. But I feel like the folks on the science/astronomy/STEM instance aren’t going to want to see a lot of leftist/socialist/anti-capitalism stuff and vice versa. And then there’s the writing and poetry and photography and…etc.

The general instances seem so…big and don’t have that concentration of specialized posting I enjoy in the local feed. I know ppl say that what instance you’re on doesn’t matter that much, but I don’t want to feel like I’m putting out a bunch of stuff that others on my instance think is spammy. Is my Twitter brain viewing this wrong? Do I just pick an instance and #CW half my posts? #newbie #TwitterMigration #mastodon #MastodonTips #advice #HowtoMastodon

@clyminghawk Good point, I was wondering about the same! Having multiple accounts for different purposes (work/private/whatever) is acceptable on #mastodon, isn't it? That might solve your problem. Got my intel from here: https://martinfowler.com/articles/exploring-mastodon.html
