You gotta follow some people, and also hashtags. Following hashtags made a huge difference populating my feed. There's no algorithm so you get to/have to choose what you want to see.

I also use the ice cubes app for mastodon, which has a trending option also for when I want to see what's gaining traction outside of my follows.

Also don't be afraid to use filters to block keywords if you need a break from certain topics. It's amazing how calm and actually interesting the feed is if you block all mentions of Twitter and Threads and US politics

I tried, but couldn't find anything interesting.

Did you search/subscribe on hashtags for subjects that you liked?
