Meh, I suppose!!! Thanks for the info~ :D

Ugh, the links aren’t working as intended I think…

The first Pixelfed link works, but the first Mastodon link just redirects me to the Pixelfed one.

The second Mastodon link works, but the corresponding Pixelfed link prompts a signup…

I believe you, though!

Thanks! Yeah, I have no idea how that’s even calculated or whatever so… If it doesn’t even affect anything, I don’t see why I would care lol

I’m an Mbin user.

The Fediverse is pretty cool… Hello, Mbin user!

you can subscribe to not just communities but also users.

Oh, that’s interesting.

Not sure what the point of public upvotes is, or what boosting is, but tags and custom CSS sounds cool. How’s my Mbin karma?! IDK if that’s how it works… I’ve signed up on your same instance, I’ll see how it goes.

Thank you for your comment!

it shows up on anything activityhub related.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Pixelfed post… But I was thinking more so the other way around. Does anything AP-related show up on Pixelfed?

Can you find a lot of content on PeerTube? What do you look for on there?

You know, you make it sound like Piefed is pretty strictly better! If the pros for Lemmy boil down to a larger user-base…

Well, I’ll definitely be checking it out! Thanks for the reply :D

Edit: Hilarious first impression.

You can definitely find solid content outside of tech and politics on Mastodon

I think tags are under-utilized, to be honest. Follow #caturday and chill.

Need to check out BookWyrm.

I tried it out about a year ago, but I think that sort of thing just isn’t for me.

Other than Lemmy/piefed, I self host everything on a very small server. It’s fun if you like that kinda thing.

That’s totally awesome :D So GoToSocial, Pixelfed, and Peertube? Awesome!!! :D

Piefed /Lemmy for keeping up with topics.

Which one do you prefer, actually? Piefed, or Lemmy? What are the benefits and drawbacks of each? I’m really interested in all the threadiverse services.

Salutations, Mastodon user.

I actually use Raccoon for Lemmy too! Though, to be honest, I hop around between apps quite frequently. I’m yet to find a mobile experience I’m fully satisfied with. Maybe it’s impossible, there’s just not enough screen real-estate…

What’s the point of the formatting bar? Is it to help with markdown?

You know, I think image-based social media just isn’t for me… I already use Mastodon as that, pretty much… It’s my cat image generator, but with the benefit of also occasionally including some news and memes. Lots of people love Instagram though, so I’m sure there’s a market there.

I absolutely do not get the point of friendica and think the low MAU shows that no one wants Facebook 2.0

Quite frankly, I don’t even want regular Facebook…

Understandable, really. I follow the #caturday tag and a comedy account called @lowqualityfacts@mstdn.social so my feed is lovely.

How’s Pixelfed’s federation work? I thought it was an image-based thing, like Instagram, so how does that interop with, say, Lemmy?

I was using Loops pretty heavily for a while

Is that like TikTok? Or like Reels, I guess, since it’s Pixelfed. A shame it doesn’t work for you… I’m big on TikTok, might just give it a try, though I’m not sure I can find the content I want on such a niche platform.

PieFed and it looks really nice. Probably the best Lemmy threadiverse alternative atm.

Over Lemmy? Why do you say so? I see what they list as differences from Lemmy and some of the features seem pretty nice, but I’m skeptical of this reputation business. Feels a little like Reddit karma, I don’t know.

Blocked and reported. Get out of my feed. /j

What do you think of Pixelfed? I hear it’s kinda like Instagram, but how is the interop with the rest of the Fediverse?

Thanks, I’ll check out that article!

There’s also a Raccoon for Lemmy app, created by the same developer

It’s what I use, actually!

That is actual insanity yeah, I have NSFW turned off even at home…

I’ve never tried out Friendica, but might just give it a shot since there’s a Raccoon app for it too…

It’s kinda like Facebook, right?
