If xmpp and matrix are included, why not include email?
I’ve been missing an alternative to Facebook that I can use for non-anonymous planning of events and communication in hobby groups etc. and I had never heard of any of the “Facebook-type” federated stuff before!
Now I just need to convince a bunch of people that this is viable to use without being the annoying guy…
Which of these are the Facebook ones?
Friendica, but it s still …uh…far from ideal. It is a start, though.
I know Threads sucks, but where would it fall on this? Another Networking one?
Yes as it is almost the same category as mastodon
BookWyrm was my first dip into the Fediverse, back when I was looking for an alternative to Goodreads.
Really surprised it’s the only book related fork of the fediverse here
Do people not read any more?
I don’t think this is the exact cause for the situation, but having more book related forks would probably just do harm by splitting up the audience. The book reading trackers are absolutely dominated by Goodreads, and any alternative desperately needs as much user concentration as possible.
Most people I know who read a lot use StoryGraph, and mostly for personal tracking, not as a social app.
This graphic is almost two years old, is it still up to date?
not really. kbin is kinda dead. long live mbin
mbin is everything I wanted kbin (and lemmy) to be.
What does mbin have that Lemmy does not? Should I switch to mbin?
