not sure she's hidden anymore, but @violet08@lemmy.world
This isn’t what I asked. I don’t care for shitpost
oh, you mean what are some good federated apps? like peertube instead of youtube, etc.?
Yes
have you tried searching for your answer?
I found this post, for example: https://lemmyverse.link/feddit.uk/post/280651
Wow this is cool. Why is nextcloud there and where is masstadon. Do you recommend any?
For Mastodon: https://joinmastodon.org/
Nextcloud is included because it's part of the fediverse: https://nextcloud.com/blog/federation-a-foundational-concept-for-digital-sovereignty/
Mastodon is fairly popular and well supported if you like Twitter-like micro-blogging. Some Lemmy instances actually federate with Mastodon instances, so you can post to Lemmy communities from Mastodon, and vice versa.
I do have a peertube account I use to host videos sometimes, but otherwise I don't personally have any recommendations beyond thinking Mastodon is a relatively mature and popular platform.
