oh wait that may not work for you on my server, I made it auth protected woops!
It works but im on the phone....so im going to leave it for now. But yeah it works.

I’m an Mbin user.
The Fediverse is pretty cool... Hello, Mbin user!
you can subscribe to not just communities but also users.
Oh, that's interesting.
Not sure what the point of public upvotes is, or what boosting is, but tags and custom CSS sounds cool. I've signed up on your same instance, I'll see how it goes.
Thank you for your comment!
How's my Mbin karma
It's 2500~, but it doesn't affect anything on Mbin, so there's no point worrying about it -

Ugh, the links aren't working as intended I think...
The first Pixelfed link works, but the first Mastodon link just redirects me to the Pixelfed one.
The second Mastodon link works, but the corresponding Pixelfed link prompts a signup...
I believe you, though!

Can you find a lot of content on PeerTube? What do you look for on there?
By now: Yeah, there are some nice creators on PeerTube. Overall, it feels a bit more like old YouTube, many more people just creating because they want to, instead of chasing fame, as well as bizarre and weird little videos here and there. One advantage of it: It has much better native embedding into Lemmy (at least on newer versions)!
Much like in other fedi-places, it's work to curate your own feed instead of having algorithms feed you. I have ADHD, so usually, I have some video or something running on my second screen while working on other stuff, and whenever my attention is spent, I switch to there and scour the recent or trending feed (or new vids from subscribers) for something interesting to share and watch.
For anyone interested - I am always happy to plug [email protected] - we recently hit 200 subscribers and have been steadily growing. If you are looking for an instance to join, I am still tinkering with it, but mine is open to new applications for as long as the server resources allow.

It's basically the same as Reddit karma, it's just the sum of upvotes+downvotes you got

Same, idc, but some people care about it. Also piefed cares, I think it puts a red icon in the username of the users with negative reputation and their posts start with 0 upvotes instead of 1. (If I'm not mistaken)

Yeah its totally my setup sorry! I had some issues with openAI and amazon just slamming my servers so had to make it harder for them to get content.
-
You know, you make it sound like Piefed is pretty strictly better! If the pros for Lemmy boil down to a larger user-base...
Well, I'll definitely be checking it out! Thanks for the reply
Oh yeah filters! They are a thing. Works pretty well on piefed.

Meh, I suppose!!! Thanks for the info~

Mostly Lemmy via discuss.online, with a little bit of Pixelfed via social.photo and Mastodon via utter.online.
I was using Loops pretty heavily for a while, but the most recent update made it not work right on my phone (and there's no web version), so maybe I'll try again when it's out of beta. It's also not truly federated atm, so only sort of counts.
I've tried out a bit of PieFed and it looks really nice. Probably the best Lemmy threadiverse alternative atm. The dev does some interesting experiments like Private Voting
loops needs to add selfhosting for vid quality options alone, everythings so blurry

Do all filters have that 3 level system? Blocking all, most, or none of a certain topic? Because that is a Feature, capital F Feature.
Also, do you know of an alternative front-end for Piefed? I use alexandrite.app for Lemmy, there's also phtn.app. Does Piefed have something like that?

How's Pixelfed's federation work? I thought it was an image-based thing, like Instagram, so how does that interop with, say, Lemmy?
I was using Loops pretty heavily for a while
Is that like TikTok? Or like Reels, I guess, since it's Pixelfed. A shame it doesn't work for you... I'm big on TikTok, might just give it a try, though I'm not sure I can find the content I want on such a niche platform.
PieFed and it looks really nice. Probably the best Lemmy threadiverse alternative atm.
Over Lemmy? Why do you say so? I see what they list as differences from Lemmy and some of the features seem pretty nice, but I'm skeptical of this reputation business. Feels a little like Reddit karma, I don't know.
Pixelfed/Mastodon/etc sort of work with Lemmy, in that they can see Lemmy posts. Lemmy can see posts from them if you tag them appropriately, which rarely happens. They only sort of federate properly. And yeah, Loops is like TikTok for the Fediverse.
I'm not saying PieFed is better than Lemmy, just saying that apart from Lemmy, your best option is probably PieFed atm.

It has front ends but it's inbuilt.

Hmmm, I see... I'm interested in getting into PeerTube and dropping YT, partially, at least, so that's good to know.
I see you talk about EU regulations in your instance. Is it hosted in the EU? If that's the case, I'd love to join it!

There's so many ways to interact with the Fediverse. The most popular, by far, seems to be Mastodon, but Lemmy, Misskey, and Pixelfed are also relatively popular. Kbin used to be popular, but it has apparently been abandoned, and is mostly dead at this point.
I recently learned that Mbin is a thing, checked it out, and it looked really cool! Has anyone used it? How different is it from Lemmy? I hear they have better integration with Mastodon.
What Fediverse services do you actually, regularly use?
For me, it's mostly Lemmy, though I do hop on Mastodon every now and then.

I am an instance administrator for three Friendica instances, Mastodon glitch-soc and Lemmy. I am also a moderator for three large Mastodon instances, Pixelfed and Flohmarkt...
Putting the software I use the most in the first place, I would say I use:
1) Mastodon, that is my historical account @informapirata (Mastodon is really immediate) and Friendica (the most complete experience even if less ergonomic)
2) Mastodon glitch-soc (immediate like Mastodon, but with formatting)
3) Lemmy (fast and with the best layout in the fediverse)
4) Peertube
6) Pixelfed, Mbin, Pleroma, Misskey, Piefed, Bonfire etc that I use mostly for testing
7) Flohmarkt that I started using only a few weeks ago -
