Besides Lemmy which I love a lot, I’m also enjoying a microblog platform called Catodon, which is much less basic than Mastodon and has a very nice interface. Pixelfed is also fantastic if you like photography rather than just being Instagram influencer nonsense. Where else are you hanging out? What have you liked and not liked?
Friendica is really versatile. To get started, I’d suggest you watch @anubis2814a’s videos (on the tagged PeerTube account or on YouTube) in order to get used to all the functions on the platform. There’s also a Wiki on their website (and likely on the node you may choose) or you can post any question on !helpers
Thank you. I’d like to understand better.
