Lemmings, do you use any social media outside of the Fediverse? (leminal.space)

I'm curious if any of you still use anything other than fediverse. Since discovering it last year I've deleted all my non fedi social media, and it feels great!

I was all set to scrap my Facebook account as I never used it anymore. Then when I starting posting daily to [email protected], I basically set it up as a news feed for 50+ animals rescues to get me content.

I think my last post on Facebook other than responding to birthday wishes was 2 years ago.

The algorithm was recommending me a lot of crap for a long time, but lately it's gotten better actually.

It's still a pain to use, but for many rescues, it's the only way to get daily news about them, so I use it more than ever now, but I'm not contributing anything back into it, other than hopefully increasing traffic to the rescues.
