The correct way to use Mastodon is to follow hashtags, not people, and use lots of hashtags in your posts and comments so other people can find them.
When you follow people, you get all their posts, including the ones you aren't interested in. When you follow hashtags, you get all the posts that are relevant to you and none of the posts that are irrelevant to you.
If you put hashtags in your posts and comments, you will attract people with similar interests and they will engage with you. Xitter is a lonely place compared to Mastodon w/hashtags.

How many daily active users are on Mastodon compared to Twitter / X right now?
