Thanks, I should have included it.
I got your back, amigo.
I only just learned about the fediverse at the downfall of Reddit, so seeing how vast it is (in my eyes anyways) is quite interesting. I didn't know any of this existed.
Yeah, the media alternatives was something I did not know about.
I am now looking into bookwyrm and funkpod because of this
bookwyrm is great!
How do you like it compared to Goodreads? I mainly use Goodreads as a tool to log info about the books I read, which I’m sure I could easily do on any other service.
I wasn’t able to find an app so I’m guessing you made a PWA for it as well?
I never used goodreads, but i basically do the same that you do on bookwyrm, so you should be fine lol. I mean, thats the bare minimum a book network should manage.
There actually is an app! Its on the F-droid store (or straight from github) though, not the Play Store (no idea about the apple store). But its basically just a PWA, so its up to you.
Why no simplex? I thought I heard ppl trying to host their own simplex?
it doesn't seem like there's a fediverse alternative for short form video content is there? my stupid little monkey brain requires it lol
If by short form you mean something like Twitter, there is Mastodon. Did you mean something else?
video content, should have specified, will edit
stuff like yt shorts, ig reels, tiktok
