For me, it's going to be Fediverse or nothing
So I’ve tried Mastodon, Pixelfed and didn’t like them. Mastodon is nice if you wanna ”tweet”, but that’s not for me. Pixelfed was dead.
I quit Meta because of tech bro fascism, and hated Twitter even before it was X because, let’s face it – nobody has ever changed their opinion on anything because of a Twitter conversation (I know I’m exaggerating, to get my point across). I was in Reddit for a few weeks, and the conversations there seem mostly friendly and constructive, but I decided I don’t want to have anything to do with social media corporations. Besides, I noticed I could scroll endlessly. And that’s not good for me.
Lemmy seems nice. There are still some topics I’m interested in that don’t have active communities, and I’m still learning on how to have my feed from multiple instances. But still, this is the way to go for me.
Against algorithms, against fascism, for free internet. Thanks for coming to my boring Ted talk and have a nice day.
Same. Me personally I’m over social media. How many times can you talk about Trump, celebrity gossip, something big happens, people rage, then they forget and move on to the next and whatever else is the hot topic for the day. It’s the same cycle over and over again. Repetitious and boring.
Twitter became popular because it became the first place to find real-time news as it was happening before regular news reported it and to learn of events around the world. Not for trashing each other like it is now and what a lot of social media platforms have become.
