Interstellar_1What's your favourite social media platform? (not counting Lemmy)
ERROR: Earth.exe has crashedBRIAR
I could (hypothetically) post “DEATH TO [Insert Name of Billionaire Here]” on Briar Public Forums and not get censored. Becauae its peer to peer and there no “server”, there no moderatoes, in fact, there is no moderation at all (which is why images are not allowed on public forums).
I have seen a dude spewing kremlin propaganda about the war in Ukraine, and others countering the propaganda, but still have yet to see any bigotry (hopefully I don’t ever see any).
XNXSadly it’s Android only
LibbNone ;)
I used to use Reddit. I now use Lemmy. That’s it.
To be clear, I do own accounts on many other platforms, including Mastodon, as a way to keep those handles under my hand. I simply don’t use them and see little reason to start using them.
cRazi_manSame.
Although it like to recommend RSS. 'Social " media is overrated. If people are looking for content them just subscribe directly to the source.
hemmesRSS is really great, always has been. And many sites support RSS, not just for a main feed but also sub topic feeds.
I use NetNewsWire on iOS
Excluding porn, YouTube is around 90% of my internet use. However, I must give credit to Twitter for the most accurate recommendation algorithm that almost exclusively only serves me content I’m interested in seeing and had been doing it consistently for a decade.
SkunkOh boy, he’s going to learn where he is in 3, 2, 1…
I’ve been here for over two years already.
And you still didn’t heal 🫂
FurblandGood recommendation algorithms don’t change the fact that the platform is owned by someone who is actively staging a coup
I don’t agree with the politics of the creators of Lemmy either, yet here I am.
Fair, though that is a somewhat different scenario. I can completely disengage with .ml and still participate in other instances, and the developers don’t get any support from that.
You do you, but I want to clarify that’s not really the same. You are not providing the lemmy creators any profit by using their platform like you are with twitter though.
Youtube & Pinterest.
Matrix
I suppose the fediverse in general.
makingStuffForFunLemmy. Mastadon. YouTube.
talAssuming “Lemmy” is including all Threadiverse software, Lemmy/mbin/piefed, then probably Reddit, which is the closest analog.
Mastodon, as I can filter any content with specific words, and tbh it’s the best thing ever.
I’m following some hashtags and find that many posts with them are in languages I don’t know. Is there a way to keep posts to the languages I do know?
Yes, Settings > Preferences > Other and there under Public Timelines you can filter which languages you wish to see.
A belated but appreciation filled thank you!
Mastodon with tag subscription is pretty awesome. On the advance web client you can even do multiple rows with different hashtag subscriptions so it’s like a self aggregating Lemmy

The only other one I even use is Tumblr.

BlueSky and Spoutible.
I’m new to Lemmy, really enjoying it so far.
Dizzy Devil DuckyWell, the only other ones I really actually use besides Lemmy are Mastodon and my InsaneJournal account. Been totally slacking on that, though, so gonna give it to Mastodon.
I don’t include things like Wattpad or yt because I spend most of my time not actually communicating with others on either platform.
