Things are getting different in social media.
X: Probably still my favorite platform but it’s getting worse and worse. At least, my lists and circles are fully functional, the search works quite good and brings me up the desired content. Finding new people gets different and is almost only possible when they commenting things with valuable content. The stream is going in the wrong direction (at least for me), where videos of fights, death or typical “sex sells” posts are shown. But working with communities and lists is still a great way to use it.
Fediverse: Runningm my own instance here for month. Sure no ads, but just a few interactions, finding new content is difficult, using the search is the probably worst experience ever. Sure, an instance cannot have knowledge of all instances in the world but when searching for not even niche content and only finding three posts that are even outdated, this is not useful or a great experience.
Threads: Could have been a great alternative. However, EU accounts do not support Fedi federation and the content is too mainstream in form of the typical Instagram content which is more about “sex sells”.
Blue sky: Anyone really still using it? I haven’t seen anyone anymore there being active.
Nostr: Hm yeah, too nichy.
Conclusion:
X stays on top, because only there I can find and interact content and people. Feediverse is a great alternative when you finally found your matching community where people are sharing your interests, because finding something by the search is just annoying. I can clearly understand why many ones are going back to Twitter/Y.

@romanzolotarev@mas.to what about snac? Not even SQLite, just plain files which comes much more to the aspect of minimalism of BSD users. My instance runs it for example -

This is how one of the cases looks like for the #VisionFive2 #RISCV board.
Happy serving on #OpenBSD & #Ubuntu. Hopefully soon again back on #FreeBSD. #rv64 #risc #risc64 #riscv64 -

Wondering if there have
been any suggestions for
quote support
If not, I'd like to request it
Works for me by using „>“ like in mails. Not quite sure if this default behavior or gets interpreted by the client as a quote -

Very interesting post about „how decentralized“ the #Fediverse really is…

#snac2 's memory usage is really insane - in a very positive way! If you have ever played around with #Mastodon you know how much memory you only need for running all the services... #snac / #snac2 is not only leightwight in code, easy to compile and to set up but also when running and maintaining. #activitypub #fedi #fediverse #federated
