I’m not going to make a big paragraph to explain myself but here are the positive points:
- No advertising
- Diversified applications
- Very good freedom of expression
- Fedivers
- Verification (using a website)
Now negative points:
-
I was sold instances that served as a mirror with X which would have facilitated integration into Mastodon for users like me. Only 2% of the accounts I follow on X are on Mastodon (Mozilla, Proton).
-
There are not really « fun » accounts like https://x.com/humansnocontext that post funny video clips, I find Mastodon a little too serious, I see a lot of political accounts and sometimes the lives of normal people like mine. It’s a shame 😕. I mean, I chose Lemmy because it’s so much more diverse!
-
You cannot change your username. It’s a shame about that...
Well, that was my opinion on Mastodon.
If you have recommendations, favorites of Mastodon accounts, share them with me.
I follow some meme accounts, if you'd be interested:
These aren't meme accounts per se, but their " of the day" posts are still neat to me:
I hope this can be of use to help lighten up your Mastodon experience. 😅
Thank you! I was on the lookout for this kind of thing too.
