Due to recent shitshows at Twitter, Reddit, and elsewhere, there's been a renewed interest in decentralized platforms. Mastodon is like a chain of Twitter-style islands. Pixelfed works in a similar way but is intended for sharing images. If anyone has accounts on these platforms, please post them here.

I've been using it for years but only a handful of people I follow from other sites were on it. Now many more people are moving there. If I had the time and money I would love to set up a toy-centric Mastodon server. Some day.
Mines been in review limbo for months. Gave up on it after a bit since I don’t even use twitter that much. That said, the functionality it has at least seems better than twitter’s. Let’s hope it can compete
I'm in there but haven't sorted out how it works yet. Never used Twatter. Anyone try Counter.Social yet? https://counter.social/faq.html Set up and run by The Jester. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Jester_(hacktivist)
Revised the first post in this thread and bumping it to test Pixelfed image embedding. Is anyone else here using these platforms?
@bananas@pdx.sh fer Mastodon, but I haven't done ANYTHING or even looked since the day after I signed up.... last year?
