I never tried PixelFed and just signed up to pixel.tchncs.de. As a client I downloaded Pixelix from F-Droid. Now I’m there with an empty feed. How do I get started?
There’s a section with trending profiles and one with trending hashtags but both sections seem to have pretty generic content like #art, #photography, #photos etc.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s nice photographies and all but it feels really anonymous and a bit random to me. Is this the normal PixelFed experience or am I doing it wrong?
I found a global stream that is a bit similar to /all and has a wider variety of content, also new posts with just little interaction so far. That feels already slightly better than the top trends.
Scroll the local feed. Search hashtags and follow hashtags you’re interested in. As with Mastodon, your home feed will be empty until you follow people.

I also don’t get it and would love some guidance

Hey, that’s not bad. Thanks!
