what social sites can you recommend? - Lemmy

I’m looking to delve into the fediverse. I use Lemmy and mastodon already. I want to go deeper into the fediverse. Where do I go next?

Does it make sense to host your own Pixelfed instance (like I’m doing with Mastodon and Lemmy currently)? I occasionally do some photography and having a place to post my images to replace my current site would be nice.
If you want to selfhost in general and/or to have control over your content, yes. If you want to explore photos and find new content you are probably better off joining one of the bigger communities.

Ah, so similar to the issues with finding content on a single user Mastodon instance :(

I think the biggest leap forward for the Fediverse would be making content more discoverable. Just not sure how that would be done.

Actually that's not a problem on mastodon, as you can always add some relays and automatically fill up your federation timeline.
Ah, right. I’d set up some relays already, but I didn’t realize that it also shared your public posts with other instances subscribed to the relay.
