@fediverse Let’s face it. When talking about the Fediverse, it is very hard to sell interoperability between different types of instances as a major advantage.

      @RookieNerd I think most instances have there place when it comes to what users may want there user experience to be like;
      Mastodon - a more Twitter / X like experience where you can microblog
      PixelFed - a more Instagram like experience where you can share Images without the META data collection
      Lemmy - more towards a Reddit like experience
      ext.
      The good part of the Fediverse is that we can join together through different parts and interact from our own instances (including ones we run ourselves). The main reasons people seem to not want to move over is because they are used to the social media they are already one, the main people they follow don’t want to move across and Instances are somewhat confusing at first.

      My thoughts are that if META does actually make Threads federate then it will not only open people’s mind a bit more when it comes to the Fediverse but maybe other social media’s will follow including METAs Instagram and Facebook making it so you no longer have to worry if you are on ‘X’ website / app instead you just ask for there username and you can chat and see there posts.

      The specific use case is why I think a reliable, independent review of each is useful.

      What differentiates these Lemmy clients:
      * #Muffed;
      * #Voyager;
      * #Eternity;
      * #Lemmy Redirect;
      * #Jerboa;
      * #Thunder;
      * #Combustable;
      * #Liftoff;
      * #Lemmur;

      There are almost as many clients for each of #Pixelfeed, #Mastedon, #PeerTube, and the rest of the #Fediverse, for a single platform.
      Switch platforms, and discover a plethora of other clients.
