    Just an observation:

    Most toots by people whom I follow, I do not see from their posts, but due to BOOSTS or QUOTES by other people I follow.

    Remember: On Mastodon, WE are the algorithm.

    You like it?
    Then Boost it!

    This graphic features the Mastodon platform mascot—a friendly, cartoonish elephant-like creature—celebrating a graduation alongside two smaller companions. The main mastodon leaps into the air with a wide smile, wearing a black graduation gown with yellow trim, a white-collared shirt, and a red tie. Its black mortarboard hat is tossed high into the air, surrounded by bright white sparkle motifs. Sheets of paper or diplomas fly through the air around it. Two smaller versions of the Mastodon mascot stand in the background on either side, both wearing matching graduation gowns, collared shirts, ties, and mortarboard caps while holding rolled scrolls. The scene is set against a dual-tone purple background divided by a dark, diagonal band styled to resemble a road with white lane markings. In the lower right corner, bold orange and purple text reads: **"Like it? Boost it!. "On Mastodon, YOU ARE THE ALGORITHM". The illustration is taken from Mastodon's 2023 Annual Report.

    PS: Mastodon has a clever algorithm to ensure that you are not overwhelmed by seeing the same toot in your timeline.
