I'm hosting and running a Lemmy just for myself, and am having no problem with it. Lemmy is great. But I'm looking to branch out, and see what else exists out there.

@butter Most software in the Fediverse is not topic-centred like #Lemmy , but account-centred.
The best known alternative to Lemmy would probably be Kbin . According to #FediverseParty, there are Moontree, Lotide and brutalinks, which is from @mariusor
#Montree #Lotide #kbin

Interesting. It's account central considered better? Or more complete? Maybe I should try one of those, what do you recommend?

@butter @caos in my own experience, it seems to depend what you want your feed to look like. Account central gives you a Twitter like feed of every individual account you follow, whereas something like Lemmy is going to be focused on following communities as a whole.

Personally I use mastodon and subscribe to the lemmy communities I’m interested in seeing in my account-centered feed, good middle ground to get both in one place
