An etiquette question from someone with two ears and one mouth: how do you choose what to post and boost here? I try hard to keep it to mountain-related things, because that's the instance I'm on, and it's generally positive. I also enjoy reading about some tech stuff, and masochistically "enjoy" some US politics, because that's where I live. I don't want to inflict those things on my followers, becase I try to be a decent human.

In the old days, you would post to different Usenet channels. Do you create a bunch of different usernames and somehow merge them into a single feed?

@drdirtbag I dunno the intent but I see folks using mastodon both ways, creating accounts specific to different interests (which sounds annoying to me) and posting a range of things from a single account. There doesn't seem to be a wrong way to do it. Hashtags do seem important, that way followers can mute or follow individual topics.
