       How do you find people on this weird site. Or subject or anything. Any pointers to muso stuff for a start would be great. Any musos that use midi in production?

       @BigD step one: if you're on the web, enable the "advanced web interface" step two: the "Local timeline" is everyone on this server, you can just read and reply there if you want.step three: click on people you recognise and use their follow lists to find people.step four: post some hashtags about stuff you're interested in e.g. #music and also search those hashtags to find people with similar interests.

       Legend @aotearoa_ben , that's great advice. Except did the bit about the hydra-headed, multi-column "advanced" interface, that monstrosity is a recipe for epic overwhelm ;)Seriously though, great to see that interface works well for some people. FediHistory note; it was originally the default UI. It was replaced with the current one when Gargron realized most people switched to using simpler, one-column web apps like Pinafore and Halcyon as soon as they realized they could.@BigD
