If you're on a small or medium sized server, you might want to browse its "Local" timeline. This shows all the public posts by people on your server, and it can be a nice way to discover interesting accounts to follow. It also gives a server a sense of community 🙂

(It's not a good idea if you're on an overcrowded server like mastodon.social though, its "Local" timeline is an incomprehensible firehose 🙁 )
