You should take a look at calckey https://codeberg.org/calckey/calckey

I think it’s all the anime lmao, Calkey is basically rebranded misskey but I see english speakers go that way much more recently idk

Misskey is dope, but mastodon is simpler imo

It just doesn’t seem very aimed at Westerners. There is a mature fork gaining prominence that is called Calckey… at least, for the next 5 days, until it rebrands. I suggest you check it out.
