Hello, I’m Colleen from Glasgow UK
I’ve found Mastodon in my decision to stop using FB/Insta/Threads etc, and so far am loving it - not least due to the lack of adverts
I’m an accountant by trade; pianist, dog and cat lover, and avid reader in my spare time.

#joy@Colgrace Welcome - hope you enjoy it here - I'm also on Bluesky, LinkedIn and the dreaded Facebook but definitely find I'm left in a much better mood after looking at my Mastodon feed than the others. My profile pic is our Hungarian rescue Freddie. I get a bit worked up about politics, lack of democracy and inequality. A fan of Douglas Adams - definitely one we lost too early...

#joyWelcome, and that's a good start!
My recommendation is that you add about 30+ other tags to your follow list! That's how you get stuff into your timeline, because we don't have an algorithm feeding it here.
Good luck!

Oh, and there's an account here that shares these great photographs of beautiful Glasgow buildings. I never knew you had so many. I'm guessing if you follow #glasgow you'll see them.

#joy@Colgrace apparently Glasgow was where the world’s first Institute of Chartered Accountants was founded.
Apparently to this day, chartered accountants in Scotland don’t have to put the country after their qualification because we were the first. -

@jztusk Glasgow is full of iconic and historical buildings - you can even take a bus ride that does a tour past some

#joy@Colgrace welcome, I heartily recommend #bloomscrolling, also mastodon.social is way too big so look around on fedi.garden you might find a smaller instance that's more your niche
