I remember a while ago I saw a TikTok but for fediverse and also an instagram. What other cool programs are there for the fediverse?
Bookwyrm! It’s for discussing, reviewing and tracking books. It’s still beta but I’ve been enjoying it for years now.
I’ve been meaning to join bookwyrm, but can never decide what instance to join, so I keep putting it off.
You can move later and also export and import your reviews.
I run https://wyrms.de/, feel free to join.
Why this over hardcover?
Never heard of it, what’s that?
neodb has other stuff besides books (games , movies ,podcasts, music ) , also bookwyrm license isn’t OSI approved which i don’t like (not looking to start a holy war on this, form your own opinion).
Do you know if book info works between neodb and bookwyrm?
Not really, i did play around with it and added a few reviews and saw nothing like it.
Funhole isn’t exactly hidden but you might not see it if your instance isn’t federated to it.
It’s just always funny to see. Usually some topical and surrealist humor and the comment section is just all
THANK YOU FOR ENGAGING WITH THE CONTENT MMMM YES THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS CONTENT THIS IS VERY GOOD CONTENT THANK YOU FOR COMPLIMENTING MY CONTENT
no phones, just vibes and people being goobers in the moment
Link?
Sorry. It’s funhole@Lemmy.sdf.org
Funhole isn’t exactly hidden but you might not see it if your instance isn’t federated to it.
Not only have I not seen it, I can’t even find it when I go looking for it.
Holy shit, thank you, finally some explanation for that place. It pops up on my feed sometimes and almost never fails to utterly confuse me.
CUM
For federated apps, I really like Lemmy itself for text discussions, and PeerTube for video. The cool thing about the fediverse is you actually own your content and can move instances without losing your audience. It’s like the opposite of the social media trap where you build an audience but don’t own any of it. I’m working on something similar called The Zeitgeist Experiment - mapping public opinion via email to cut through the algorithmic noise. Not federated, but same spirit of reclaiming thoughtful discourse from engagement-optimized platforms.
I’m always searching to expand my feed, so it usually goes from “hidden gem” to completely normal!
That said, I find that the “scaled” search option is excellent upon making such discoveries…
I’d say the “scaled” post listing option is a hidden gem.
You bet your bippy it is!
And dang-bone-it, I miss good ol’ Val Kilmer. (he used to post, sometimes)
What does it do?
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.
