Hello everyone that is trying out new platforms. I’m along side you trying a new place while I see how everything pans out over at Squabblr.co. If you want, share what your user name is over on Squabblr? What brings you here?
I’m not sure if I’m going to like this whole fediverse thing. But figured I’d give it a shot. I’m also trying out Discuit.
Second depending on Instances Federation/defederation but you can always talk to people from Instances you left, so there is no shame to go to other place because you found some friends beforehand. You can still interact with them from new place, but I read some stories where people had problems due friends being on different instances so it’s not all rosy… It’s better than what Reddit does though https://816am.ddns.net/post/6468 . You can setup your own fediverse server for yourself and friends!
So depending on your needs and what you can afford, you can join any service there are like Mastodon if you want raw twitter with # only search, Misskey if you want fun with Emoji and other feature bloat, Kbin and Lemmy for forum experience, Hubzilla for site constructor, there is forks for Masto,Misskey there is Akkoma, Pleroma… There is so much to explore, so finding best place can be hard that would have things you are interested and on service you like, but this is why fediverse get praise
Thanks so much for all of this info. That’s very interesting. I definitely need to read up on it with that link you shared.
