I’m curious if any of you still use anything other than fediverse. Since discovering it last year I’ve deleted all my non fedi social media, and it feels great!
I used reddit and discord. Now I use lemmy and discord and occasionally mastodon but I dislike the format.
I didn’t like twitter before so I didn’t really get into mastodon
Nope. I will never use centralised social media again. Too many years exposed to social media that just doesn’t give a shit about the welfare of its users
This
LinkedIn for job shit only. I don’t like follow and comment and shit. I don’t really get the whole point.
The point is to network and make yourself look very successful and likable, a great lover or humanity, one of the best in your field but yet the most humble and grateful for all things that happen in your life… :)
You regularly post obvious uplifting quotes to your peers, who likes them and writes little comments back about how true that quote is, hoping to be promoted the next time there is a company reorg.
I can’t stand it. :)

Surely this is just ass kissers liking and commenting on the bosses weird ass linked in ego trip?
Is anyone liking and commenting peer’s linked in stuff thinking that’ll score them a promotion? Why would the company care about this?
Where I have worked, try company arranges events at work, like cooking something, or some mystery game, and then takes pictures of that and posts on linkedin. Then they ask employees to comment and say how fun it was.
It’s just HR marketing disguised as something else.
I too loathe LinkedIn, but have to use it. To make myself feel better, I spend an equal amount of time on shlinkedin afterwards.
Same bro 😮💨
Reddit, Twitter, BlueSky. Does Discord count as social media?
There’s something insular and self-righteous about the fediverse so I’ll never only use it. But lemmy is pretty great.
YouTube+discord
All of them. If a social media site exists, I’m on it. I have the world record for the most sites having signed up for.
I have a bluesky account because several twitter friends went over there. I barely use it because my mastodon feed is a lot more interesting.
Discord until I find a reasonable alternative
YouTube, Reddit, Twitter and Pixelfed
Mastodon and Instagram(To chat with friends) For contacting I use Matrix, XMPP, Telegram and IRC.
Yes, one beside Lemmy out of necessity. There is this app called LINE that started as a humble instant messaging service to serve as a communication aid during the Tohoku Earthquake in Japan. Now it tries to be everything: payment, shopping, interest groups, food ordering, ride calling, music, news, loaning money, etc.
I only use the LINE core function to get by every day, because everyone around me is using it, casually and professionally. My country is using it for everything, even in governmental affairs. It’s however only very popular in Japan, Taiwan, Indonesia, and Thailand, where I reside. There are theories regarding why it is so popular in those countries, but one I believe is its “cuteness” functionality, where you can send “stickers” to each other, something like an elaborated emoji.
I, too, use LINE regularly because I used to live in Japan and have many friends there I’m in regular contact with. I agree with you that the cuteness is a significant factor for its popularity.
Not really. I have an Instagram account I haven’t truly used in years but that’s about it
Removed by mod
I tried screaming the latest r/new posts on the subway but I got stabbed. No more social media outside for me.
I got rid of pretty much all social media. Since this is anonymous I don’t really think of it as “social media” the same way I would Facebook or Twitter. The only other thing I have is an Instagram account under a fake name that I just use to follow a few celebrities and craft profiles and look at women trying to promote their OnlyFans accounts lol
anonymous
Pseudonomous, not anonymous.
