Mastodon and Sharkey (Misskey fork), though I use Sharkey much less.
I also have a Matrix account which is a different kind of Federated service (chat and instant messaging) though not Federated in the same way as Lemmy and Mastodon (uses a different federation protocol).
I use email.
Everyone is mentioning email. I also use the World Wide Web.
DNS is also super cool can’t imagine my life without it
I use Mastodon and Pixelfed mainly. But I also have an account on Friendica and Loops.video, but I rarely use them. And does Matrix count?
Oh and I forgot about Funkwhale for putting your music collection online.
Matrix certainly counts as “federated” which is whats in the title, but its not using activitypub so its not “fediverse”. Email is also federated and i assume you have that too lol
Good point.
This is the only federated software that I use because it is the only one in a format I enjoy using. I liked reddit for the threaded forum kinda format, so lemmy was an easy transition.
Never liked facebook/twitter/instagram or those formats so no interest in a federated version of them.
Matrix, XMPP, Mastodon, Lemmy,
Maybe make onboarding easier or the fediverse dies a slow death
But nah, why bother making it easy for users to join when you can just gatekeep everything into low engagement
I use :
Mastodon. It’s much better than Lemmy.
Mastodon and Pixelfed. Mastodon is my main (Retro Gaiden) but I’m experimenting with the Fediverse to see what works for me and what doesn’t.
Mastodon but not nearly as much as Lemmy.
Bookwyrm but not nearly as much as Mastodon.
I really wanted Bookwyrm to be more useful for me. But it’s really not geared towards what I want in keeping track of books. ymmv
Mastodon. Lemmy is good for discussions, but Mastodon is more Twitter -like so you can follow friends and see what they’re up to.
I host: GotoSocial, Bookwyrm, Matrix, and a number of self hosted git related services (Radicle). Some awesome emulators of more modern game consoles are over on the federated git (not GitHub) nowadays.
I also made a UI that transforms mastodon to look more like lemmy/piefed/etc…, where hashtags are the communities. Its not really ready and very bare bones.
I have a funkwhale account. I wish I used it more.
Most of the above have an rss feed so thats how I keep up with it all.
the common stuff (email, telephone), mastdodon, mbin, loops and i have many more accounts
Mastodon on my pen name.
Piefed for the hell of it.
Used to use one of the “key” forks, but the instance I was on shut down, and I never went back.
Haven’t really bothered with the rest because they don’t fit any needs, and tend to be based around things that aren’t my personal interests enough to use regularly. Peertube, I’ll never put videos up, but I use it when other people link to it.
That’s really it. I don’t want/need the kind of services friendica is for, nor whatever the name of the Instagram clone is, and loops is totally not my thing.
I don’t have anything against them, mind you, I just don’t use those kind of platforms
“use” might be a stretch.
I have a mastodon account I check occasionally
I have a pixelfed account I use rarely
And a loops account I think I logged into once
Just email dan lemmy. I dont care for social media. I havent had one for a long time. I just dont see the appeal. I registered on peertube but its pretty lackluster.
Just Peertube. I’ve been orphaned from my Mastodon instance and I don’t think I’m going to sign up for another one.
I use Lemmy and PeerTube. Host a version of both myself. I use Loops a little as well and will probably pick up Pixelfed at some point.
In times past, when it was still thriving, I was an avid user of Usenet.
Sharkey. Piefed. Pixelfed. In order from most used to least used. I don't use Lemmy.
Besides lemmy only pixelfed
Nah that kind of thing isn’t important to me unless the product is polished and as good as the original it’s replacing including the amount of content available
Matrix and Email :D
Mastodon, but I’ve largely dropped it for Bluesky. I’m no purist about full decentralization, and I think it’s enough that the latter both has users, and isn’t currently awful.
I’ve used Bookwyrm a bit. I kinda like it. But it had some UX issues imo, and didn’t keep me hooked.
Also tried Pixelfed. It’s pretty slick, but I just can’t see the point. Like Instagram, seeing a feed of just pictures wasn’t all that interesting to me… though I probably just haven’t followed the right accounts.
Matrix
Tried them all, I think. Lemmy is the only one I like this far.
Excluding email, nope. Seeing as no one else in my friend group uses Federated services, and they’re all still too small to have any niche content, there isn’t really anything for me.
Catodon, same as Firefish but with haptic feedback (and other stuff)

Misskey, as most of East Asian and SEA community are on there.
