when I see what you can do with it :
- follow lemmy community, up/down vote and interact
- follow mastodon user
- subscribe to rss and share its posts
I wonder why mastodon is more popular in the fediverse ?
@chimay Well, my regular claim is “Friendica, under the radar now for more than a decade”. But I’m happy about that. I think that it removes a lot of pressure from the team.
There is a stable number of servers and users, that’s really fine.
I only wish that we wouldn’t be ignored that often, when people name the different systems in the Fediverse.
quiet and powerful, I like it

@goatsarah Isn’t there some commonality with Friendica and Hubzilla? edit: I was just wondering if you had ever used it? @chimay
a long time ago, but didn’t dig deep
good reminder, though
yes, it’s mentioned in https://hubzilla.org/page/hubzilla/discover
It should also be fediverse compatible, but for now I can’t follow some random mastodon accounts. Maybe I missed something
I’m re-discovering it right now
- features are similar
- hubzilla is more modular, you can add modules called “apps”
- e.g; : there is an app to manage groups
- there is a cloud storage (“files” app)
- it’s easy to import a channel from another instance, and sync your channels
both are great.
@chimay Yes, I’ve had a fiddle and it looks incredible. I’m [email protected] I was wondering about self hosting but got cold feet!
I’ve tried zotum.net, nice, last version, but it’s down sometimes, so I’ve cloned the channel in hub.hubzilla.de, works fine
@chimay Hubzilla e-mailed me to say to said hello! I tried to view you at zotum and it seemed to be broken. I’ll try again today. :)
right, I forgot to mention it !
number of servers almost doubled in the last year, I hope it’s like lemmy that showed a similar growth in servers but no growth in active users before exploding (power users and early adopters liked the platform).
The more you get used to the fediverse-way, the more you like it. With people rushing in mastodon & lemmy, it’s only a question of time before it gets more attention, imho.
