Hello again #Fediverse, I may need your #fedihelp. So, here's a list of the Fediverse software I'm about to make temporary accounts for to test all the features and differences:
So, did I miss anything noteworthy? Does anyone have any tips or recommendations before I choose a server for any one of these? I'll probably be going for the most popular server on each for improved federation and maintenance.
Note: I'm using #Sharkey right now and Misskey forks are already overrepresented, so that's why it's not included.
@danieldekay no the same - I have hundreds of different followers on each network, although all could follow on either one. I post manually to Hubzilla, but my Friendica site auto-posts from my blog RSS feed.
Both networks are profile -only posts, so no separation into topics like Google+ had. I loved posting into topics as that gave some focus for followers. Actually think Reddit has that inside channels, but I left Reddit for Lemmy.
I really miss being able to use whatever chat client I feel like (and even use multiple chat networks at the same time).
I'm glad we still have #XMPP and #Matrix, especially with all the cool bridges Matrix supports. However, it's really hard to meet anyone other than FOSS enthusiasts there. :\ Getting friends and family to use Element also feels virtually impossible.
@oskoo here as well. Best I could do was switch to Telegram. Which no longer seems to be having so many alternative clients that are not forks of the original app.
