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.

    Yeah I just tried to look for one video but found nothing 😅

    better version of discord, whatsapp, telegram, imessage, fb-messenger, signal, etc.

    How would I set it up?

      Yes, thats peertube atm. Check sepiasearch.org and sort by newest. That helped me.

      I‘d try it first. You can use matrix.org as a starting point. Its the biggest matrix server and from the foundation that made the protocoll.

      If you want to selfhost you need a server that is available on the web (vps or port forward). You then put synapse on it (i did it in docker) and the bridges you want. Once you get the hang its easy.

      There are many detailed explanations. If you need a video explanation, I can make one.

      Good luck.
