Setting aside Big Tech and surveillance capitalism for a minute — I wonder if fediverse microblogging apps like Mastodon aren’t fairly antisocial and inclined to individualism, while apps like Lemmy are more community and artefact/stuff-to-share centric.
People are complex, societies infinitely more so, but software can nudge us this way or that way too.
I’d be interested to hear what others here think.
Mastodon is awkward to use for me. Filters and following give poor control. Lemmy gives me only what I want to see.
I like bluesky feeds and wish mastodon had them. Then it would be easier to use imo
