Some very good answers in this post: I’m aware of kbin, mastodon, and lemmy. Are there any other federated applications out there? : nostupidquestions, some random copy&paste:

Here’s a list of 130: the-federation.info/

From https://fedi.tips/what-other-kinds-of-servers-are-on-the-fediverse/:

As well as Mastodon, there are lots of other server types on the Fediverse, for example:

  • BookWyrm – A social reading platform, an alternative to Amazon’s GoodReads
  • Friendica – A general social network with no character limits, sort of like Facebook used to be on its older interface
  • Funkwhale – Music and podcast storage and sharing
  • Kbin – Link aggregation and discussion, sort of like Reddit
  • Mobilizon – Event organisation, the Fedi’s alternative to Facebook Events
  • OwnCast – Video livestreaming with a chat window at the side, very much in the style of Twitch
  • PeerTube – YouTube-style video sharing site which uses P2P technology to allow even small servers to have videos go viral, as the more people view a video the more bandwidth it gets
  • PixelFed – Photo sharing site, similar in style to Instagram and Tumblr
  • WordPress – Independently hosted WordPress blogs can be turned into Fediverse servers using a special plugin
  • WriteFreely – Minimalist blog where focus is on the text, like a calmer version of Medium

…and that’s just some of them! If you’re a techy person, you can see more comprehensive lists of server types at FediDB and delightful fediverse apps.

One I like not mentioned so far is bookwyrm, which is like a federated goodreads (track books you’re reading, review them, read other’s reviews).

Edit: the flagship instance is bookwyrm.social

I think it’s worth noting that Mastodon is by far the most mature. Everything else is buggy and may not always work the way you might expect but I think many are still worth using if you can put up with the quirks.

Does anyone feel like sitting down in front of the computer and playing around with their notes a bit?

I just wrote down how I set up and try to maintain my (academic) reading list in using the plugin by @marcusolsson and . Might post it again after the holidays, but for now, here's the description of my approach for those who asked. Thus, fulfilling my promise from this thread: https://hcommons.social/@natalie/109557676423033978

May I once again share my excitement about the plugin for from @marcusolsson?

I've finally managed to format my references from so that they show up in Projects without any problems. Now I can finally create a reading list and easily track and change the status of books from within the Projects view.

Wonderful. Can't wait to continue reading for my dissertation next year and finally track what I want to read or have read each week. But for now, it is a reading break here!
