How do you find content on fedi? Do you use any algorithm tools you recommend?

Rn, I check https://social.growyourown.services/@FediFollows (a mastodon acct that recommends interesting accounts to follow), and https://followgraph.vercel.app/ , an algorithm that shows you people your following follow on Mastodon.

Aside from that I stumbled upon things which is always fun but I wish there is an easier way to find interesting things without always manually searching and digging through results.

      No problem. And just to make it clear, if you haven’t done so before, if you find a community you like on lemmyverse.net, you’ll want to copy the text with the leading exclamation mark, which you can do by clicking on that text on lemmyverse.net — say, for example, [email protected] — and then paste it into the community search on whatever client or Web UI you use. That’ll make your home instance connect to the instance where the community lives and learn about it, if it hasn’t already. Your home instance is sh.itjust.works, which is decently-sized, so it’s not as much an issue for you — for many communities, some user on sh.itjust.works will have already done this and subscribed to the community — but for users on smaller instances, it’s more important.
