Something we would really like to have at https://archaeo.social, but haven't been able to find the time for, is a bot that welcomes new users, gives them tips on how to populate their feed, encourages them to make an #introduction post, then automatically boosts it.
Otherwise unfortunately we see that, on a small instance like ours, most new users never get past that initial empty feed.
If anybody wants to take this on, it'd be much appreciated!
