Hi! If you're interested or work in #DigitalHumanities, here's a shortcut to enjoying mastodon.

It's great once you're going but the first steps aren't that intuitive. There aren't algorithmic recommendations for posts or folks to follow, so here's a quick way to kickstart your network:

1) Sign up to https://hcommons.social/ (if you need a mastodon account)

2) Add some information and a pic to your profile

3) Select some or all of the DH folks listed at https://frederik-elwert.github.io/Mastodon-Digital-Humanists/ Save the CSV and import it to your Follow list

4) Enjoy! You can add or remove folk as you wish. You can add yourself to the list above too

Edit: here's a list of lists, mostly academic subject-based, of accounts to follow. Hat tip @quinnanya
