Bit of a simple question: Some people on lemmy are still posting stuff from youtube, xitter and the like.

Have you gone full fediverse yet or how far are you?

  1. traded reddit for lemmy/kbin
  2. xitter for mastodon
  3. discord for matrix
  4. youtube for peertube

Obviously I also mean other alternatives. Which ones do you use and why?

Disclaimer: this question is me asking genuinely but also trying to make it fun by arbitrary ranking/escalating it. Not trying to say one is better than the others.

    1. Yep
    2. Wasn’t on Twitter really (I’ve had various accounts over the years but they never stuck), couldn’t see the point of it. Got two active Mastodon accounts though and I’m all over it like a rash.
    3. Nah Discord is still perfectly fine for the way I use it
    4. Uploading my stuff to both. But PT really need to acknowledge the major discovery problems before it can get anywhere, and at the moment they don’t even seem to accept that their instance search tool (ie the first thing most people will need) is broken, so I don’t have high hopes.

      1. there are puppeting bridges for matrix->discord. Just saying :)
      2. I just raised that issue a couple moments ago in their gitlab. Might even start working on it if I can understand it. Let’s see. Because I see the potential and want it to succeed.

        Haha, yes I know, this entire thread is just an opportunity for you to tell people about Matrix Discord bridges! But I’ve personally got no use for it yet. And that’s ok 😉

        Glad someone might be in a position to help with the PT stuff. I can’t help with the actual codebase but have been pulling together feature requests and bug reports as well as doing a lot of tech support for new users so we all do our part where we can. Teamwork!

          Awesome! And yes, I just told my wife that I might have to make a video tutorial on that bridge thing. Would be easier than typing it out all the time. But alas I get to tell people and we might see even more users in the fediverse.

          Feel free to hit me up on matrix btw. I like to connect to other open source folks.
