First steps after booting up my own Mastodon instance (random-hero.com)

So I have set up my own Mastodon instance and it's empty. What should I do to fill up my instance with content? And how do I do that other users of Mastodon on other instances see my "tweets" on my instance?

Follow people.

And if you would like to boost it, join a relay. But check which relay, make sure it's content you want. And prepare for increased server load and media storage!

Do you have a good list of relays? Always had trouble finding good topical ones
