No Mastodon? I always assume all of us lemmy people use Mastodon (if they are into the twitter kind of thing).
I prefer bluesky
I keep wondering if BlueSky is going to eat mastodons lunch when/if they open up next year.
I’m not on there myself, but from all the things I hear it’s got the vibe of doing the federated Twitter alternative “right” rather than, let’s say “idealistically”.
Everything I hear about it seems to be negative, but then again I only really hear about it from people who tried it and hated it and came to Mastodon instead. So I expect they just have different audiences.
wdym by right and idealistically?
Well they’re in quotation marks for a reason … It’s unclear.
The essential idea is “right” is what works and “idealistically” is what some people think should work but doesn’t.
Got an invite code? I don't know how that works...
I only give them out to people ik
I think it's related to who you follow
Different groups on twitter are migrating to different platforms. If your group went to Blue sky, then that's where you'd go to keep reading their stuff
Yeah I mean I never had a twitter group, so I’m mostly looking for interesting communities and figured there’s a lot of that on mastodon. But to be honest I don’t really find great stuff there.
