Who is using Mastodon (I’m going to give it a go), and what app do you prefer for it?
@sarcassem I gave up on it. I think the first step is to try to find a mastodon instance that suits you. Something I never managed to do. I settled on mastodon.technology but it never felt worth my time.
If you find a good instance/app/workflow I’d like to hear about it. I still have some interest even I can ever find a way to use it well.
@ronguest thanks, Ron. I’ll def keep you posted. I’m not entirely sure it’ll be worth my time either, but I do like the idea of getting away from Twitter entirely.
@sarcassem on iOS, Toot and Tootle were the best options. Both have their own issues, but they seemed to be the ones worth checking out. You can also look into using your m.b account as well.
@zap @sarcassem i also use Toot! And Mast
@sarcassem as others have commented, I also use Toot! Mastodon doesn’t seem like it’s going to dethrone Twitter any time soon, but it’s still nice to have an alternative.
@sarcassem I use it and have the app Toot. It’s not bad but I don’t get anywhere near as much enjoyment from it as what I do with Micro.blog.
@martinfeld awesome 😀 thanks! Yeah I don’t know much about it other than it’s a decentralized social network. Just pretty curious about it.
@sarcassem I find that it's an interesting place but it feels messier than Micro.blog. If you like having a calm place to settle down into some engaging posts, this is a better place for it. Mastodon is more like Twitter.
