A good way to discover interesting accounts is to follow hashtags. When you follow a hashtag, posts with that tag will start appearing in your timeline even if you don't follow the post's author.
To follow a hashtag:
1. Search for a hashtag
2. Click on the specific hashtag you want from the suggestions
3. Click "Follow" button at the top
To manage your followed tags, go to your own profile page, click ⋯ and then "Followed hashtags".
