@coolboymew@shitposter.club @Neo_Dolus@shitposter.club [email protected], I like the idea of the Fediverse, but I don't have nearly as much to attract me to using it as frequently as I did something like bird site or bulb site. Are there any comic artists/photographers/artists/musicians here on SPC that you would recommend (preferably SFW)? If not, to which instance should I look for that kind of thing?

@lykanthrocide@shitposter.club @Neo_Dolus@shitposter.club @switchpoint@shitposter.club Honestly, big name people in general NOT being here is the biggest attraction here

@coolboymew@shitposter.club @Neo_Dolus@shitposter.club @switchpoint@shitposter.club yeah, I get that, but there have to be some good artists here, right? Even artists like Kukuruyo or something.

@lykanthrocide@shitposter.club @coolboymew@shitposter.club @switchpoint@shitposter.club You want artists, look at baraag and Pawoo and follow who you want from those two. Lots of loli though, so if that's not your cup of tea...

@Neo_Dolus@shitposter.club @coolboymew@shitposter.club @switchpoint@shitposter.club That's a start at least. How do I search those instances? Do I just use the search bar up top like I would to search for a user? Like I type in "baraag" or "Pawoo"?

@lykanthrocide@shitposter.club @coolboymew@shitposter.club @switchpoint@shitposter.club The simple way is just to go to Pawoo and baraag in another tab and remote follow. It'll ask you for your address, mine is 'Neo_Dolusshitposter.com' so that's what'd I'd give it.

@Neo_Dolus@shitposter.club @coolboymew@shitposter.club @switchpoint@shitposter.club Ah. Gotcha. Trying that now

@lykanthrocide@shitposter.club @coolboymew@shitposter.club @switchpoint@shitposter.club It's best to think of your fedi address as something akin to an email address.

@coolboymew@shitposter.club @lykanthrocide@shitposter.club @Neo_Dolus@shitposter.club @switchpoint@shitposter.club only big person here is me and maybe moon

@coolboymew@shitposter.club @Neo_Dolus@shitposter.club @lykanthrocide@shitposter.club @switchpoint@shitposter.club rw too

@Neo_Dolus@shitposter.club @coolboymew@shitposter.club @switchpoint@shitposter.club That doesn't seem to be working for Pawoo. I also tried "lykanthrocideshitposter.club", but no dice.

@1iceloops123@shitposter.club @coolboymew@shitposter.club @lykanthrocide@shitposter.club @switchpoint@shitposter.club Ouch.

@Neo_Dolus@shitposter.club @coolboymew@shitposter.club @switchpoint@shitposter.club Okay, but what if I don't know what account to look up? What if I just wanna browse artists? Sorry if I sound ignorant. I'm not sure how all this works yet.

@Neo_Dolus@shitposter.club @coolboymew@shitposter.club @switchpoint@shitposter.club Okay, I think I got it now. Thanks, Dolus!

@lykanthrocide@shitposter.club @coolboymew@shitposter.club @switchpoint@shitposter.club You can just browse the nodes in that case. And remote following is always the thing you have to explain to new people, so it's fine.

@lykanthrocide@shitposter.club @coolboymew@shitposter.club @switchpoint@shitposter.club Welcome. And this is the main thing new users have problems with. I still remember my first remote follow, @hakui@tuusin.misono-ya.info from 2014.
