Hello fellow Europeans!

I have already swapped like 95% of all of my american applications to European alternstives (all besides YouTube). However, I have a question…: What the heck is happening on Mastodon?

a) there are a few people there (even in comparison to Lemmy it is just microscopic

b) seems like Mastodon has never seen Any moderation: even though I followed politics-related people/organisations, Mastodon was, almost, bombarding me with unmarked and VERY unwanted NSFW content. Why?

So the question is: how to deal with Mastodon? Is it only me? It would be very nice to get back there and make theiving conversations and threads like here on Lemmy.

    “there are a few people there”

    Even if you have a Mastodon account yourself, the content and contacts are not limited to Mastodon.

    You are connected to a large part of the Fediverse from Mastodon and so you can i.e. also comment in Lemmy threads or send content to Lemmy.

    Personally, however, I didn’t get on so well with Mastodon because I found the structure confusing and also missed some functions. I therefore moved my Mastodon account to Sharkey and have also been using Friendica for a long time. It also has a better thread structure and many more functions.
