@thomas well popularity aside (compared to masto at least) the amount of Reddit alts is approaching the Twitter alts now (just much younger):
Lemmy
Kbin
Mbin (fork)
SubLinks
Piefed
Azorius
(Plus some I prob forgot)
And if forums count, NodeBB, with discourse coming (?) #threadiverse#fediverse
I just attended the "ActivityPub Based Forums and Threaded Discussions" call, and I really like their work on standardising the way, how forums federate.
I think the fedi needs to be more about clients/apps than it is currently.
Agreed, and I kinda touched on this earlier about how the #Threadiverse should've simply been a frontend where people just use their main fedi account instead of having to create another account for forums in a link aggregator... :sagume_think:
Tbh all the #fediverse implementations in the first place should've been backends first and foremost. Why should I not be able to have #Misskey's frontend in #Mastodon or #Pleroma? And the other way around too. This does mean that we will have to all agree on a common client API and MastoAPI will dominate, but I'd rather have Mastodon dictate client API than fediverse implementations. :seija_coffee:
