But how do I know what hashtags are there? I don't know what to follow is my issue. I need to bootstrap my set of followed things and people and how do I do that?
If you're not a part of some clique that decides to move off Twitter together, then I doubt you'll be able to just recreate a similar environment.
Otherwise for someone who posts frequently and has a good following, then it's probably worth it to start posting on Twitter and Mastodon at the same time, that's the only way it happens. Big movers and shakers are either going to stay on Twitter or drag everyone else with them, basically unlikely to happen.
