I’m hoping to find more general, less nerdy content or infuriating American news. 99% of what I see and is recommended to me is just that.

I know Technology Connections has an account. I’m thinking people roughly along those lines in terms of popularity/scale but I’m open to any topic from gardening to gaming.

      I’m personally more intro the more popular geeky hobbies, likes video games, Warhammer, History, and building computers, but like I said, I’m open to other quality content as long as it isn’t too niche.

        Oh are you kidding there’s SO MUCH Warhammer on Mastodon. Check out the local feed of warhammer.social. There’s also wargamers.social but obviously a bit broader in focus.

        Even if you just follow #Warhammer there’s a decent amount but then you can add in other tags like #Warhammer40k, #GamesWorkshop, #AgeOfSigmar, #Necromunda, #BloodBowl, #WarHamFam, #WarhammerCommunity, #Wargaming, #MiniaturePainting and damn we have got ourselves a feed going!

        I’m sure I read a post on one of the communities here recently that was showing off their entry to a Mastodon-based painting competition as well.

        As far as things like gaming go obviously that’s a pretty wide topic and it’s gonna depend what you’re looking for. #VideoGames or #Gaming for example gets you a lot of news headlines. Specific game tags e.g #Starfield will get you a mixture of news, streamers, screenshots, memes and of course people aggressively complaining. Or maybe you’re interested in seeing what sorts of games small indie creators are making in which case something like #DevLog might be of interest.

        I know your original post is asking for “notable content creators” which it seems like you’re using to mean “big accounts”. But really if it’s interesting content on a topic you enjoy, the size of the account posting it doesn’t matter.

        And naturally since you said you’re open to other “quality content” I do also recommend #Knitting because we’re surprisingly active and also cool af.
