I recently came across https://pixelfed.org/ for an Instagram replacement. I haven't had a chance to try it out yet, but it looks promising. Seems like a federated platform like Lemmy/Mastodon that's geared towards photo sharing.

Mastodon (specifically mstdn.ca). Lemmy.ca, pixelated (though I rarely use it like I should) and I'm hoping to soon get a tilvids account to document my progress modelling for X-plane and creating the assets for my own computer board game.

Reddit - Lemmy Discord - Matrix Texting - Signal/RCS Twitter - Mastodon

I tried Tumblr as a replacement for reddit for a while, but I'm just not really cut out for microblogging, so I came to lemmy.

Just kbin and discord, I have no other social media.

Here is a really cool curation of fediverse-related platforms that I learned about prior to cancelling #reddit.

Instead of livejournal, I wrote my own blogging software in PHP.

What's the issue with WhatsApp? I thought it was great for privacy.

[-] jackpot@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

the only thjng good is the messages and calls are alledgely encrypted, literally every other detail they know. live location? entire contact list? how frequently you text someone? etc etc

Reddit with Lemmy and WhatsApp with Signal. I still use Reddit and WhatsApp but i would miss out on to much if i cut the ties. I have LinkedIn but i'm not really using it. Does YouTube count as social media?

Really just use Lemmy, Mastodon, and Element. I keep Discord installed because all my irl friends use it. I don't interact with any servers on it anymore though, just DM friends.

try used webcord instead, discord frontend

Out of the open platforms, I use:
Reddit: Lemmy, Beehaw, Kbin
Twitter: Mastodon, Calckey
Facebook: idk nothing really plus I don't even use Facebook that much anymore

I may occasionally use proprietary ones like Twitter, Tumblr and Threads.

Beehaw is also lemmy !
