Is there a Mastodon alternative?
Yea, go to another Mastodon instance
This is the way
So say we all.
Firefish
There are so many I lost count:

Smile, you're already on ~~Candid Camera~~ it!
Mastodon and Lemmy don't have great interoperability. They use the ActivityPub protocol in ways that are not compatible with each other.

As others have said Firefish is a better fit, also Misskey is nice (long live Ai chan!)
