Oh definitely Mastodon. I’m having a blast over there, tons of fun people. Plus, the fact you can follow hashtags makes it super, super easy to populate your timeline with interesting content and then if it’s too much, you can pick a few people you like who are interested in that topic and just start following them instead, which gradually translates into a very organic feeling timeline without a long period of crickets while you look for friends and make new friends.
From what I’m hearing doomscrolling is quite difficult to achieve on mastodon. People are mostly horribly nice and supportive and stuff. And there’s no cool vampire algorithm exploiting heightened emotions. But where there’s a will, there’s a way! You can do it. Choose your doom-y hashtags carefully, my friend! We believe in you.
+1 for mastodon. Also no advertising, you’re not the product.
I’m seeing alot of artists, specially japanese, moving to Misskey too, which is also federated.
That’s great for me cuz I mainly used Twitter to follow artists.
How is mastodon condescending? is this something just to fill that “make something up about a trending topic” quota.
Ye best start believin’ in fediverses, Miss Turner. Yer in one.
The condescension in that makes it clear that the smug social network is whichever one the author happens to use.
Or perhaps just read a book -> based
My wife has been reading a ton more books after leaving Reddit. I’ve mostly switched over to Lemmy. I’m a developer and interested in tech; my wife not so much. So she hasn’t made the jump to Lemmy yet
You can do anything there, anything at all. The only limit is yourself.
best answer! Let’s hope it will never be destroyed by corporate greed.
How did you make your comment play that music in my brain?
WHY ARE FERAL HOG POPULATIONS SO HARD TO CONTAIN? BECAUSE THE POPULATION ARE BIG AND ALL THEY DO IS KEEP MAKING 100 OF FERAL HOGS AND I THEY DO IS MAKE THEIR MARK EVERYWHERE THEY AT AND THEY ARE TRYING TO STOP THEM BUT THEY CANNOT BECAUSE THERE ARE ABOUT 2 MILLION OF THESE HOGS AND ORDINARY HUNTING AND THESE FERAL HOGS ARE VERY DANGEROUS AND THESE TYPE OF ANIMALS ARE ONLY IN THE SOUTHERN.
Maybe journa.host public feed? https://journa.host/public/local
Or better, use the elk.zone interface: https://elk.zone/journa.host/public/local
It’s a mastodon instance for verified journalists, and so… you know. If it bleeds it leads…
(I’m not [entirely] serious… just as the cartoon the post link leads to isn’t… [entirely?]…)
