Which federated social media is the most user friendly to you?
Sharing is very appreciated.
Please share your experiences too if you don't mind.
Hello, @redstarfish, I got a new poll above I think you would be interested with.
I also mention my friends @nemo and @Zergling_man.
Hello @FediFollows @feditips @FediVideos @feditrends my friends, what do you think of my poll above? It is about the #Fediverse!
Hello, @freedcreative, thank you for participating and resharing my #fediverse poll! What did you choose? I chose Mastodon.
This poll above grows to 200 participants already and currently #Mastodon is leading. Please share your experience with #Fediverse.
@ademalsasa Pleroma does what mastodon't.
@Zergling_man thanks! Person I knew who use Pleroma is Dr. @schestowitz.
@ademalsasa @schestowitz I recommend chatting to @velartrill and @thor
@Zergling_man thanks, I got new friends. This speed to make new friends was what I could not get at Diaspora at that time.
@ademalsasa @thor @velartrill @schestowitz To be fair, that's more of a community issue than a software issue, unless the software actively hampers attempts at communication, like a certain rather famous one... Or two...
@Zergling_man I am talking as a whole (gestalt) here without making difference between parts. That was my personal experience.
@ademalsasa pretty much the same experience i had
someone mentioned hashtags but as a purely personal thing i've never, ever found hashtags useful except for some fairly high-context specific ones like fediblock where i'm already invested in what's going on anyway and already have a non-trivial background to know what to look for
@ademalsasa While I don't use it any more, I actually found #Diaspora to be more user friendly than Mastodon. I love that they had you enter a handful of hashtags that you were interested in that they then used to suggest people to start following from the beginning, then they followed those hashtags for you so you had content in your (single column!) timeline from the start, then you could easily create your own groups (aspects) to post to. I still miss all of these things in #Mastodon.
@ademalsasa I haven't a clue, I just am getting used to this one.
@ademalsasa@floss.social for me its misskey. have been using mastodon and pleroma for a while. mastodon is a nice entry point when coming from twitter but it also feels somewhat restricted.
also i think this is impossible to answer objectively because user friendly is such a subjective thing
@ademalsasa Even though it is not part of the Fediverse, I've chosen #Diaspora. The remote-thing in Mastodon & Friendica could hardly be worse for non-techies.
@ademalsasa IIn generally, my experiences are very positive. Lovely people, no spam. Very interesting folks, all in all joining the fediverse is a triple win situation for me, IMHO. :D 👍
@nemo true! Same experience goes to me also, Nemo. My pleasure too to receive your experience, my friend.
@ademalsasa Thank you Ade my friend :D 👍
@nemo I have a new post about job here https://floss.social/@ademalsasa/106720861590118891 you can participate, nemo. If you have more sources to add, please kindly add.
@ademalsasa Sure Ade if I find something I'll add it :) np 👍
@kazriko nice experience! Thanks for sharing it is wonderful to me.
@ademalsasa Could it be worth doing a poll at some point including some of the "protocols" (e.g. Friendica, Pleroma, Misskey, etc. - see https://the-federation.info/#protocols )?
@ademalsasa I said Mastodon but I think PixelFed is really promising too. I’ve never tried Diaspora so I can’t comment on it.
@freedcreative @ademalsasa Diaspora is a bitch to set up.
Further comments to come.
@ademalsasa I just tried Mastodon and that's quite user friendly!
@lauteshirn hello, welcome to Mastodon and you are right!
@ademalsasa this dues say a lot about the #geekproblm
I chose Mastodon.
Let me share with you. Mastodon is the user friendliest federated social networking site to me. Easy to join, easy to make friends, easy to post and share everything, quickly and understandably.
As a comparison, with respects to the developers, when I found fediverse at the very beginning, it was Diaspora and I really had no idea how I shall use it, nor I got friends I could chit chat with like I did with Mastodon.
