Follow #hashtags that you are interested in to get a broad slice of miscellaneous content, and also check the "trending locally" page from time to time (showing posts that are popular on your instance). #bookstodon #rust #programming #go are some good ones. #maths is excellent (but I'm in maths grad school). There's a growing number of sharp wits and interesting bots to follow. For sure the content exceed my time budget for entertaining social media. I haven't tried getting targeted answers by asking Mastodon, so I can't comment about that.
