Mastodon doesn't by design

There is a trending section, and it does boost popular tags based on user interaction. It doesn't shovel crap into personal feeds like traditional social media, but it's not entirely lacking discovery features either.

Trending section often unusable and basically only rewards the majority (a.k.a Western fediverse).

If you host instance for non-English language for local communities, trending will quickly populated with Western/US-centric conversation and news.
