Bit of a simple question: Some people on lemmy are still posting stuff from youtube, xitter and the like.

Have you gone full fediverse yet or how far are you?

  1. traded reddit for lemmy/kbin
  2. xitter for mastodon
  3. discord for matrix
  4. youtube for peertube

Obviously I also mean other alternatives. Which ones do you use and why?

Disclaimer: this question is me asking genuinely but also trying to make it fun by arbitrary ranking/escalating it. Not trying to say one is better than the others.

    It is a protocol. Element or fluffychat are two clients.

    The main benefit is you can host it yourself. Fully encrypted, stored on a server you either own or know the owner/location of.

    No ads, nitro or otherwise.

    You can bridge discord and nearly all other messaging apps like whatsapp, signal, fb messenger etc

    Its pretty huge imo.
