So I’ve tried Mastodon, Pixelfed and didn’t like them. Mastodon is nice if you wanna ”tweet”, but that’s not for me. Pixelfed was dead.
I quit Meta because of tech bro fascism, and hated Twitter even before it was X because, let’s face it - nobody has ever changed their opinion on anything because of a Twitter conversation (I know I’m exaggerating, to get my point across). I was in Reddit for a few weeks, and the conversations there seem mostly friendly and constructive, but I decided I don’t want to have anything to do with social media corporations. Besides, I noticed I could scroll endlessly. And that’s not good for me.
Lemmy seems nice. There are still some topics I’m interested in that don’t have active communities, and I’m still learning on how to have my feed from multiple instances. But still, this is the way to go for me.
Against algorithms, against fascism, for free internet. Thanks for coming to my boring Ted talk and have a nice day.
20k MAU can feel pretty dead, even 100k can if none of them are sharing things you're interested in.
79 millions pictures , i don't undetstand how you can't find any content that is interesting
One of the big issues that I personally had with Pixelfed is that content discovery is kind of difficult on the platform. Sure, there's probably some pictures out there of the obscure shit I'm into. However, all I ever found on pixelfed was like landscape/nature photography and a little bit of porn
I see all type of contents drawing, vinyl, monuments etc
