Looking for focused alternatives to Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, etc Not just for myself but for my family members and friends who I wish to keep in touch with… any other threads going on about this? Maybe have a general thread and subsequent migration movements, we really need to act on this social life fascist monopoly we’ve became hostages to…

    That’s true. It’s very often I’ll get actual replies to things I contribute, which is cool!

    I think a lot of the ghost town effect is because other platforms focused on superficial things you don’t really see much here. Big sparkly notifs when you get an updoot and meta-currencies and that sort of thing.

    I don’t get a lot of upvotes on stuff, which sometimes gives the impression nobody’s seen it. Furthermore, I find if I respond to something posted older than a few days or a week? That convo is dead. Haha.
