As a new user, I'm enjoying Mastodon's vibe so far but the one thing that is a letdown is the trending hashtags. I've been checking them regularly over the past couple of weeks and it seems like they're pretty much always like this.

Even on days with big news stories, people on Mastodon are only talking about what day of the week it is like company employees on some internal message board?

Is there anything that can be done to liven them up a bit?

No egos, rage bait or dumbasses.

Sometimes I miss that though. I remember seeing a tweet a while back that said something to the effect of "twitter is boring until the unemployed people wake up at noon and start their shit". Unfortunately, it looks like everyone on mastodon is a normal employed adult, which isn't as fun.
