Piefed, Bookwyrm, goto social.
peertube,
diaspora,
and kinda forgefed/forgejo, but it’s not really going many places yet.
oh! and a smattering of others i’d forgotten about… like microblogging things… gnu social? pleroma? and others i forgot even harder. [edit, oh, and friendica ~ meh]
i’ve heard irc be described as federated too. ~
[edit, and now piefed too, thnx to another comment here]
I have tried many of them out of curiosity, but this is the only one I use regularly. I still prefer Reddit, though. I think Lemmy fragments communities and has too many memes and too much U.S.-centric news. I expected a federated platform to offer more diversity of thought, but it feels like the same kind of groupthink you see on Reddit.
piefed.
Peertube, i just wish there was more long form content and more high quality videos from creators and more genres currently all it is, is Linux news, Linux gaming and privacy i just prefer to see those on text format rather than video format
Thats also my experience with peertube. And that its difficult tofinde something else. So I left it again. Hope to see more development in creators.
@[email protected] 's peertube!
Pixelfed
I had such high hopes for PF, but it really felt like everyone was just screaming into the void.
Peertube. I’d like to see more channels from YouTube at least mirror their content there. It’s fine if they don’t want to deal with another platform, but let us at least do the mirroring.
Piefed. For all intents and purposes it’s the same as lemmy and interacts with lemmy instances, but it’s… less tankie.
Thnx. Added PieFed to my list.
Yup, my thoughts too.
I really like WAFRN (https://wafrn.net/) which is a Tumblr-inspired platform. I’ve never been able to get into the more micro-blogging style that Tumblr is known for, but for some reason, I find myself very engaged with WAFRN.
Bookwyrm, pixelfed and mastodon. I just signed up for loops but haven’t really tried it yet. I also have a funkwhale but honestly haven’t touched it in years.
Somebody needs to make a lemmy wrapper that looks exactly like old reddit
Here is a neat listing of fediverse applications and their uses.
Of these I have only used Lemmy and PeerTube. Planning to try out PieFed soon.
