While not part of the fediverse if you want Twitter like activity I would suggest BlueSky. However I am also on Mastodon and I find it to have plenty of activity. It’s not the fire hose that Twitter is but to me that makes it much more manageable.

Good point, thats the correct way to look at it.
I’ve never heard of Orkut, the only Google social network I ever used was Google+. When I first heard about Facebook I couldn’t even sign up because my college wasn’t a supported .edu…lol and I guess the Facebook format/design isn’t inherently bad, just the algorithm is horrendous. There are more adds and post from suggested groups than people and groups I follow on my feed. Then the post from Threads a social network I don’t even use forced on me and adds in the notifications. It’s just a garbage experience and way of going about things. Although it’s still hard to see the point of an alternative that the people I know IRL aren’t on when I have Mastodon, BlueSky and Lemmy for like minded people.
Still a thing, known as writer decks. Projects for them are all around the internet.
Sure but what’s the point of feeding a question that is basically irrelevant to the post. This isn’t about a stock PS1. Of course you can get one cheaper and it can’t do a fraction of what this can.
I saw someone suggest Yandex as a Google substitute in de-Google thread recently...lol
You realize this has a lot more features than original PS1 hardware, right?
Mastodon is fine. The fediverse doesn’t have to pretend like it has alternatives for every social media network overnight. People expect semi equivalent experiences to apps developed by massive teams and corporations.
Why does software have a political stance?
More people should have asked that question before November.
I don’t even know what that means. Tik Tok is a stand alone social network. I also don’t understand the need to have decentralized replacements for every social network. It’s also not realistic because the fediverse isn’t about profit and that’s what lead corporations and massive development teams to create these apps. People have to come over organically and there are already good experiences. A crappier version of an app or service they like isn’t going to convince casuals.
