I have fully transitioned to using Lemmy and Mastodon right when third party apps weren’t allowed on Spez’s place anymore, so I don’t know how it is over there anymore.
What do you use? Are you still switching between the two, essentially dualbooting?
What other social media do you use? How do you feel about Fediverse social media platforms in general?
(I’m sorry if I’m the 100th person to ask this on here…)
I’d say I actively use Lemmy and Discord nowadays (as in, I’m making new posts there). Some times I leave a comment under a YouTube video, other times I lurk Reddit just to see what other people have said about XYZ topic.
I used to be a very frequent user of Reddit during much of my adolescence, but got tired of it a few months ago. I’m not exactly sure what caused it, maybe the increased toxicity, or that some subreddits got boring after they reached a certain number of subscribers. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Lemmy is now. Followed by reddit, which I visit less and less. And no it doesn’t feel like dual booting, there seem to be so many of the same people here, with the same issues and anger. But I prefer the lemmy UI and absense of ads. The lack of a personal karma total might be keeping at least some of them away.
Lemmy is the only app I use because I want to. Others I gave to use for work etc.
Mastodon and lemmy, can’t choose
