I find that Mastodon is so diverse that it still has hidden corners, and I've got the personality type that *loves* to share cool things with others.
(Although I forgot to actually include @thisismyglasgow in my post. I've been here three years and I'm still not good at hashtagging, etc. my own posts. Thx for calling them in )

Welcome.
Note: This is the #Fediverse as opposed to only Mastodon. You can move from one Mastodon home site [ such as your current home at mastodon dot social ] to another and from Mastodon to other Fediverse home sites sites that work in a similar manner. Akkoma and Pleroma sites are two examples. They all work together.
Further, there are Fediverse multimedia sites that work the same way and that also talk to Mastodon and similar sites. And, in general, it's not corporate controlled and it's often more rational than you'll find in the Old World sites.
You'll find trolls in any social media. However, the setup here makes it more difficult for them to get traction and to initiate dogpiles.
The Fediverse is, too, friendly to dog and cat fans. Check, for example, the hashtag #caturday. #caturday is where people post photos of Tom Baker covered in kittens. Credit for that post goes to:

Warning: I do have a bad tendency to share too many "this is an outage and people must see it!" posts here, but I recently decided I needed to cut back on those, and try to share more "this is cool!" posts, so hopefully I'll deliver on that.

@jztusk @joycebell @thisismyglasgow
Keep sharing both - “this is outrage” & ”this is cool” balance each other -
@oldcoder @TheManyVoices
That’s very helpful, thank you.@Colgrace @oldcoder
You can follow hashtags here, the same way you follow accounts, and see more topics you're interested in. Click on the hashtag, then when the page appears with the hashtag on top of it, click on "Follow."Because there is no algorithm here boosting posts artificially, that really is a great way to find feed that interests you and come across new accounts.
Here's a nice list of interesting hashtags.

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.
#s that I’m following so far:
#music
#dogs #dogsofmastodon
#catsOfMastodon #cats
#art #hitchhikersguide
#joy@Colgrace A belated warm welcome.
