I would like to follow some nice and informative mastodon accounts. Any recommendation?

Follow #hashtags, my friend.
That’s the easiest way to find people with interests like your own.
Yeah thanks, that is the way. I found very often content related to tech and FOSS, wich is great.
It can be spammy at times though. For example, I had to unfollow the #music hashtag because it was mostly bots posting YouTube links.
I had to unfollow most generic hashtags because it was just random people talking about anything and using the tags, often in foreign language, or it was some personal stuff I don’t care about. It really gave me a bad first impression since it made mastodon look more like facebook or sth where people dump their personal stuff online, rather than a valid news source.
I’d instead recommend just following news or publications or groups that actually curate their content.
If you like tech, especially throw backs to old computers you might like Veronica explains. She has 2 accounts on mastodon, one seems more active and the other on seems mostly to just point to her YT channel.
just search for Veronica explains under users/channels and both will show up
I found her cause in addition to being new to the fediverse I’m also new to Linux and found some Linux stuff on her YouTube channel.
https://fedi.directory/ contains a human-curated list of accounts categorized by interest.

A few different fun accounts to follow. I don’t know if I qualify as either nice or informative, but can be mostly found at both: @ArtBear@mastodonapp.uk or @ArtBear@calckey.social
