Is there a Mastodon alternative?

[โ€“] OsrsNeedsF2P@lemmy.ml 36 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yea, go to another Mastodon instance

Firefish

[โ€“] redcalcium@lemmy.institute 5 points 1 year ago

There are so many I lost count:

  • Pleroma
  • Misskey
  • Friendica
  • Firefish
  • Akkoma

And perhaps many more. Heck, even Kbin has microblogging support.

Smile, you're already on ~~Candid Camera~~ it!

Mastodon and Lemmy don't have great interoperability. They use the ActivityPub protocol in ways that are not compatible with each other.

You're right, they're pretty different, though you can post from Mastodon to Lemmy I don't know if you can do the reverse.
As others have said Firefish is a better fit, also Misskey is nice (long live Ai chan!)
