Pretty much only Lemmy. I like and prefer the form of post which can be media or weblink with description or just text and text is unlimited, with threaded comments for discussions and comments, and thematic categorization (in communities).

Occasionally, I open https://loops.video/ or some other random platform. That’s nothin regular, though.

I have accounts on multiple instances, which is another layer of thematic separation. Community spread and content duplication is a downside, but also a technical consequence of the design.

Been on Mastodon for like four years. Ironically, I joined when during a major Twitter exodus, but I’d already left Twitter like two years before. I came here because I started to get tired of my content being used to make money for Mark Zuckerberg and I also noticed that “the algorithm” was primed to make me both addicted and angry all the time.

Came to Lemmy because I find it has more memes and humor than Mastodon and scratches the reddit itch (I left that platform about two years ago). It’s also a pretty good place to see news from around the world.

I also use Pixelfed, but rarely. I like to look at it when I have downtime but don’t want to be inundated with political posts and commentary. It tends to just be pretty pictures of flowers and mosses.

I love the Fediverse for being influencer-free social media. I really want to start a PeerTube instance for my own content (I’m a priest at a small Episcopal parish and I use streaming for our Christian education stuff and I find a huge disconnect with using a predatory and exploitative platform like YouTube for any kind of actual Christian material).

Been on mastodon for awhile. I decided to make a lemmy account because trying to view lemmy from mastodon is annoying.

Only on Lemmy, ever since the APIpocalypse on Reddit.

I tried Mastodon and just couldn’t really find much I’m interested in on there.

I use the fediverse because reddit really pissed me off by taking away functional app options for a second fucking time

I just recently joined Lemmy; never had a redditt account. Have been using Mastodon for quite a few years now; only ever dabbled in twitter. I like that the fedi stuff seems more organic and less manipulated by algorithms, although, that also makes it easy to miss stuff as well. Still getting a feel for Lemmy and discovering interesting communities. My ultimate social platform was Google Reader (still miss my sharebros/gals. My primary social media after the demise of GR was the comment section, BBS, of BoingBoing – we had a mass departure after the publisher did some petty bans (started our own discourse instance)

Just Lemmy. I never had Twitter so Mastodon probably wouldn’t appeal, I had that problem with Bluesky.

More than anything Reddit just got annoying to use. I had no social media at all for a bit until I signed up for Lemmy, and I haven’t decided if I like it yet. I do enjoy that there isn’t a ton of content to endlessly scroll, feels healthier I guess.

I want Peertube to be good but the content just isn’t there for me yet.

I’m on mastodon, lemmy, pixelfed, and loops. Also on Bluesky until the ads start.

Here to avoid ads and dark patterns. Fediverse is where interaction is done with users in mind instead of being the product. No nasty algorithms here.

I only use Lemmy. I tried Mastodon but it was too similar (in its principle) to Twitter which I disliked.

I came on Lemmy because I was starting to get tired of looking at Reddit : always the same stories and content too much filitered. Then the API thing happened so it was over for me, since I only used third party clients.

I stayed because tech and discussions.

We were informed about Mastodon from folks on Twitter back in 2019 that were looking to migrate. (I forget what Twitter was up to at the time, but part of me wants to say some form of censorship was going on) Never looked back on that end as Twitter’s vibes were always rancid, well before the buyout, and the Masto instance we were on felt so much more like an actual community.

As for Lemmy, kinda similar story but we never had a Reddit. Never felt it necessary to interact with that community whereas this one feels more real, joined a couple years ago now I think?

We’re also looking at WAFRN to replace or at least bridge from Bluesky, we kinda begrudgingly joined that site only after learning that Dorsey was out of the picture but it’s just been nothing but the admins shooting themselves in the collective foot for as long as we’ve been on Bsky.

Lemmy, Mastadon, and a bunch of old school forum sites. I tried piefed and the UI isn’t quite the right fit that lemmy is for me.

I can’t be bothered to care, or have the time to keep up with, whoever’s weekly petty political nuance about who runs what instance and why they’re each a faschio-socialist whatever. If I wanted social media run by 8th graders, I would be on Truth Social.

I started exploring Lemmy/Kbin during Reddit’s API drama. I use Lemmy daily, mostly just lurking, but occasional participation. I probably participate here more than I did on Reddit. I post to & scroll through Pixelfed occasionally, definitely more than I ever used Instagram. My Mastodon account is essentially abandoned. I never had a Twitter account, so not exactly surprising. Oh, I also briefly tried Loops, never used TikTok. I’m not big on videos, so I haven’t tried Peertube.

I’m tired of billionaires and big tech and want to support alternatives.

I have Piefed and Mastodon accounts. I prefer the “old reddit” style and the Piefed instance I’m on doesn’t have it so I can’t really get into it. I hate all these supposedly “modern” UIs yells at clouds.

Mastodon is different, it’s fine, I guess. I check it out now and then. For many years I’ve tried to understand microblogging. I just fucking don’t. I never understood Twitter, I’ve always found it obnoxious and inscrutable, even before the Nazi takeover. Mastodon seems like a less fleshed-out version of Twitter, so, again, I just don’t get it. Lemmy? Upvote, downvote. Mastodon… favorite? bookmark? boost? Are replies threaded, I can’t really tell. Does anybody see my posts at all? I’m following like a hundred hashtags and yet my feed is all from one news blogger I’ve never heard of. I just don’t get it. So just every now and then I post a picture of a loaf of bread I baked or something and people seem to do things that cause my notifications to light up once or twice.

Pretty much only Lemmy. I use it because I believe centralized social media and the companies that run it are killing the internet, and want to put energy into something that might replace it instead of creating free content for Reddit as I did for years.

I came from reddit when the API thing shut down my mobile app of choice (RIP Baconreader). I tried lemmy and kbin right away, but couldn’t really get into kbin. This is my only active social media account, unless you count an occasional steam review as social media. I have been using the jerboa app and it works nicely.
