There’s so many ways to interact with the Fediverse. The most popular, by far, seems to be Mastodon, but Lemmy, Misskey, and Pixelfed are also relatively popular. Kbin used to be popular, but it has apparently been abandoned, and is mostly dead at this point.
I recently learned that Mbin is a thing, checked it out, and it looked really cool! Has anyone used it? How different is it from Lemmy? I hear they have better integration with Mastodon.
What Fediverse services do you actually, regularly use?
For me, it’s mostly Lemmy, though I do hop on Mastodon every now and then.
I am coming from a time when IRC, Gopher, usenet etc. was all we had. Then suddenly the www was the latest and the greatest.
So the fediverse gives me old days vibes.
But when you come from the time of centralized services it has a really existing threshold until you feel comfortable with it.
I hope that the federation of the different services will go and in the end we have a centralized access that collects and presents it in a streamlined way.
Still a way to go but lemmy, mbin etc. already are on a good way. Still my statement is valid, unfortunate.
