https://loops.video/ is honestly pretty great
You can bite people and play room on wafrn.
Idk why, but I always read wafrn as warfarin, which is a blood thinning medication I think?
Same
I chose Piefed over Lemmy since I thought the UI looked nicer. The pace of development has been really impressive lately, and for my specific instance, I’ve been very happy with feddit.online.
Mastodon seems like the default answer for this question, and I do also like Mastodon. I self-host that one.
I only use lemmy/mbin/piefed thing for now. I would call it a reddit replacement but its really to me a newsgroup replacment. I like being a member of the federation so far over the reddit star empire.
We need more conversational content that isn’t related to news, gaming, or tech. As far as covering those topics go, we have it down.
I’m currently using Lemmy, and Friendica as my only fediverse accounts, and will probably keep it that way. Friendica has a lot of features, but in my experience it’s slower than most
PieFed.
It is an optimal experience already.
There’s honestly a lot out there…

I’m happy with Communick. They offer Lemmy, Mastodon, Matrix, and Funkwhale for one subscription. Its worth paying for, because the Fediverse isn’t free.
I’ve seen their price list…sorta smacks of ‘hey, guys! I’ve thought of a way to make money without doing fuck all for it!’.
One appeared to offer just Mastodon - nothing else - for a ridiculous $9/month.
Grifters.
That’s a family plan for 6 people.
It works out to $1.50/person/month.
FUCKING PAID?! sorry but isn’t the fediverse supposed to be free?! it’s decentralized so anyone can just host their own instance for free. youre a bot. i know Steve, dont lie to me, tell me, are you a person that works at communick?
I mean… Some people will host free servers, some will be paid. Omg.lol has a fedi server, and a bunch of other stuff, and it costs $20 per year for it. It’s fine to expect users to pay you back for your time, effort, and cost???
If you’re not paying for domain and hosting someone else is. If you are so sure that’s free, why don’t you self-host your own instance?
I don’t know anything at all about communick, just saying. Supporting a fediverse provider run by individuals who otherwise volunteer their time monetarily is a virtue not a sin, and plenty of open projects do this.
It’s not free. Servers and bandwidth cost money.
If you’re not paying, someone is being generous and paying for you.No I don’t work there. But I have been paying for 2 years. And it’s the only way for the Fediverse to scale. Donations won’t get us to 100M users and beyond.
With respect to Communick, I doubt you’d get close to 100m subscribers either.
Not even 100 subscribers.
But I was referring to the Fediverse in general. It won’t ever scale to a real global default social network, on the donations and the kindness of strangers.If we don’t pay for it, then it’ll be paid for by adds.
Then we’re back to what we’re trying to get away from.
Communick or whatever, just pay. Even if it’s a donation.Sure, but if you make it mandatory to pay for anyone to use - it doesn’t grow. And if you’re right about the Fediverse, donations aren’t enough and it also dies.
People make lots of online buisness that grow just fine.
It’s just when people get used to a kind of thing being free, they feel like its impossible or stupid to pay for it. Even when those same people complain about how enshittification ruins everything, they refuse to directly pay instead.
People make lots of online buisness that grow just fine.
I didn’t say it couldn’t grow, just that model becoming huge is very unlikely.
…where have you gotten the impression that it’s “supposed to” be free?
Hosting your own instance will always cost money? Either as an electricity bill, or in the form of paying someone else’s electricity bill and server maintenance for conveniencd. Even self-hosted server admins pay with their time in away also, there’s even moderation to consider as well.
Nothing is free. Someone is paying for hardware, electricity, internet, and man hours.
On legacy social media, the advertisers and the consumers of your data are paying.
On the fediverse, someone in the community is paying.
Whats your expirience woth funkwhale? I tried to get on it some time ago and i hit wall after wall after wall.
I use it for my music server and have enjoyed it, but I haven’t really used it in a “fediverse” kind of way. I’m just using it for my own music collection, for the same use case that most people would use Navidrome for.
I disabled federation after I first set it up, because all of the sudden a bunch of podcasts showed up in languages that I don’t speak, and I couldn’t figure out how to hide them.
It has been just fine as a plain old music server, though. I used it for podcasts for a while, too, but am currently switching to Pinepods, since that has more podcast-specific features that I was looking for.
I played with it. Had no problems. Worked fine.
Then realised it doesn’t do much for me personally. But it seems cool.
It’s yet to have multiple instances but loops.video seems to be a good short-form video content space
