Not sure about any that try to be exactly like Facebook. The closest off the top of my head is Pixelfed which is meant to be like instagram if that seems like something you’d be interested in.

Which fediverse software is the best pile-of-dogshit alternative? hmm.

Time for a new direction. You're already here!

I use my local real world bar instead of Facebook

ScaNtuRd OP ,

Thank you all! It seems like there’s consensus that Friendica is the one. I’ll probably check it out, but I’ll most likely not end up using it, since there’s no way all my normie friends will ever get on there…

That really is the biggest hurdle for new social media platforms when there are established platforms already in use. Overcoming the inertia of having your entire network on one platform is a monumental task and requires a collective consensus that is hard to reach.

Friendica is also a good way to follow Mastodon and Twitter accounts, so you combine that.

Nostr? I never heard of that one , how active it is?

ScaNtuRd OP ,

Nostr is very active, actually, and works a little bid different than Lemmy. Go watch this video, it explains it very well: www.youtube.com/watch?v=yIccRIEr2gQ

I was using Mastodon as Twitter as most of the people I used follow move there

ScaNtuRd OP ,

I heard that Mastodon isn’t great because apparently it basically turned into de-federated instances with power hungry admins. But I haven’t tried it out myself.

Only if you want to play around weigh crypto bros.

Oof. Just had a quick look at it. It’s like 90% crypto content. And lot of it are obvious scams to steal your coins.

I wonder why Lemmy isn’t listed as an alternative to Reddit.

Packopus ,

That’s actually strange… It /was/ listed there not too long ago, that’s how I found it. Kbin was the less-known site at the time too (about a month ago).

I haven’t used it personally but I believe Friendica is the thing.

Friendica, apparently. I've never used it.
