Well, the only other ones I really actually use besides Lemmy are Mastodon and my InsaneJournal account. Been totally slacking on that, though, so gonna give it to Mastodon.
I don’t include things like Wattpad or yt because I spend most of my time not actually communicating with others on either platform.
BlueSky and Spoutible. I’m new to Lemmy, really enjoying it so far.
Not counting Lemmy
The only other one I even use is Tumblr. And only when Lemmy is extra slow and boring. It’s harder to actually just talk to people on Tumblr, the way “replies” work there. I use SM more for the social part. The memes and content are just bonuses.
Mastodon is my preference 😊 I really like my timeline
Mastodon, as I can filter any content with specific words, and tbh it’s the best thing ever.
I’m following some hashtags and find that many posts with them are in languages I don’t know. Is there a way to keep posts to the languages I do know?
Yes, Settings > Preferences > Other and there under Public Timelines you can filter which languages you wish to see.
A belated but appreciation filled thank you!
Excluding porn, YouTube is around 90% of my internet use. However, I must give credit to Twitter for the most accurate recommendation algorithm that almost exclusively only serves me content I’m interested in seeing and has been doing so consistently for a decade.
Good recommendation algorithms don’t change the fact that the platform is owned by someone who is actively staging a coup
