   I'm not sure how you would know if your timeline is "too white" ... other than a few people who talk about their ancestry or use (what we assume is) their facial image as their avatar, a person using #GNU_Social / #Friendica / #Mastodon / #Red_Matrix / #Hubzilla could be of any ethnic group, from any location around the world.
   
   That's actually one of the best things about online communications. I may talk with you for years before I realize you are a member of $RACE and $NATIONALITY or that you live in $COUNTRY. We get the opportunity to build relationships without all that garbage in the way.

     @Gargron Well, for example, I'm a US-based Black male. People know this because I talk about it, but there are only a few topics where it makes a difference. For the most part, people whom I've communicated with for about a decade are still popping up to tell me they are surprised to discover my ancestry.
     
     Perhaps the OP meant that people in timeline are not discussing topics that person finds interesting. But in that case, asking for pointers to people who share those interests might give better results than "Find me members of any group except White, so I can subscribe."
