Besides Lemmy which I love a lot, I’m also enjoying a microblog platform called Catodon, which is much less basic than Mastodon and has a very nice interface. Pixelfed is also fantastic if you like photography rather than just being Instagram influencer nonsense. Where else are you hanging out? What have you liked and not liked?
I got back on Lemmy for the first time in 6 months and it’s way more active. I’ll be using it more. I tried Mastodon a while ago, but it didn’t stick. I’ll try again.
I find Mastodon very basic myself.
Yeah, I prefer Twitter. I have a suspicion that Mastodon will only get a chance at relevance if something at Twitter pushes people off the platform. Reddit’s 3rd party API ordeal seems to have boosted Lemmy quite a bit, so it shouldn’t take too much, but maybe I’m too optimistic.
I use another Matodon like platform called Catodon. The interface is MUCH nicer.
