    Mastodon. Lemmy is good for discussions, but Mastodon is more Twitter -like so you can follow friends and see what they’re up to.

    Mastodon and Pixelfed. Mastodon is my main (Retro Gaiden) but I’m experimenting with the Fediverse to see what works for me and what doesn’t.

    I host: GotoSocial, Bookwyrm, Matrix, and a number of self hosted git related services (Radicle/Forgeo). Some awesome emulators of more modern game consoles are over on the federated git (not GitHub) nowadays.

    I also made a UI that transforms mastodon to look more like lemmy/piefed/etc…, where hashtags are the communities. Its not really ready and very bare bones.

    I have a funkwhale account. I wish I used it more.

    Most of the above have an rss feed so thats how I keep up with it all.

    I use :

    microblog

    • mastodon for political content as it allows me to avoid lenghty and tendious discussion with its 500 character limit. But…i stopped using it for a while due to current news on climate change and fascisme. And i’m not fan of its UI
    • IceShrimp. I love its colorful UI. For me it one of tge best UI pn the fediverse. It also have a good balance between lenghty text and short one. It also support markdown. 3000 character is enough

    forumverse

    • lemmy, it was good when we migrated from Reddit but over time i prefer PieFed.
    • Mbin, i tried it but i dunno why i don’t use it as much as Lemmy whereas there were much more functionalities and cool ideas.
    • PieFed i’m starting to use it much more than Lemmy. There are plenty great ideas as downvote management, tags, poll, multicommu, support peertube and a.gup.pe. It is better each week.

    This is the only federated software that I use because it is the only one in a format I enjoy using. I liked reddit for the threaded forum kinda format, so lemmy was an easy transition.

    Never liked facebook/twitter/instagram or those formats so no interest in a federated version of them. There could be something out there I would also like, but thst would require trying more things and I gave up after bouncing off a few.

    Excluding email, nope. Seeing as no one else in my friend group uses Federated services, and they’re all still too small to cover most niches, there isn’t really anything for me.
