I got the PeerTube android app. It's very bare bones. As a first foray into peertube I'm not sure it's the way to go. I think I've set myself up for failure.

Anycase, I'll dedicate some time to try find some pocket of content I like tomorrow. Getting away from YouTube sure would be nice.

Unfortunately, I don't know a single person who uses Friendica, and that is also, unfortunately, self-defeating because there's no way I could convince them to go without more than just me using it.

Apparently it makes a good RSS feed aggregator if nothing else.

And that makes it a Facebook replacement how? Facebook is terrible and the only reason I ever go there is to check in on people I know. I don’t understand Friendica at all. I can get all the social interaction I need from Mastodon, BlueSky and Lemmy if my goal isn’t people I know and just like minded people.

I already done my part. I only keep WhatsApp for professional reasons (and barely use it) but the rest is already done. 😁

Friendly reminder that peertube can expose your IP address.

Could the software selection be more diverse? There's also MBin/Piefed, and Misskey/Sharkey/Firefish/Akkoma/Iceshrimp. Just a suggestion tho. (obviously they can't all fit in the image, but it would be nice to see an alternative to popular software like lemmy/mastodon.)

PS: Signal is not federated at all, it's centralized. It should either be replaced with SimpleX or matrix/Jabber.

Try Matrix or XMPP instead of signal

[–] jerkface@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I miss Jabber so much. There was a brief time where my one XMPP client and an easy to install server could let me chat with everyone I knew, whether they were on ICQ, Y!, gchat, MSN, IRC, or AIM. We fucking HAD interoperability.

Thank you, this covers everything I could have thought of!

[–] alzymologist@sopuli.xyz 9 points 1 day ago

This should promote matrix, not signal

[–] Elrecoal19_0@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (3 children)

Wouldn't Matrix be a better alternative to Signal, since it doesn't need a number? Maybe it has a too difficult learning curve to the average user, though
