I enjoy Mastodon a lot, had two accounts there since last November. It's good for just quick casual updates and convos that don't take much thinking or drain your social battery. My partner is on Pixelfed but I just follow him from Mastodon so that works well.

Recently signed up to Bookwyrm because I was saving way too many scifi book recommendations on here and figured it made sense to organise them somewhere.

I use LinkStack for my content creator alter ego, and am considering getting into PeerTube too, but need to look into that more.

Pixelfed (Instagram) and Mastodon (Twitter)

Haven’t heard of Pixelfed before; how’s the user base?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Not comparable with instagram yet, but its growing fast https://pixelfed.org/servers . And for my interests it is more Than enough. I am no poweruser and follow only a few people, but if i wanted so, i could browse for hours in my subscription-feed.

I use Mastodon via selfhosted GoToSocial instance. I tried different federated blogging systems but none of them seems to be actively developed anymore and stuck in pre-Docker era.

PeerTube occasionally, but I watch only two channels that upload there.
