I guess being new here I need to understand some things a bit better. Someone tagged my first post as an ad. I honestly don't understand why, since it stated reasons to move from mainstream social media to more ethical and meaningful platforms. If anyone would like to share advice, that would be more than welcome.

On another note, some of the platforms I found have the "non-US" advantage. Some of them are non-profits, others are user-controlled...

Some platforms are great for browsers, but they have no APP or they need a third party APP.

Any suggestions? Where to move from Instagram? And Facebook? And X? And Linkedin? and Amazon? Spotify? Youtube? Google Drive, Dropbox or Onedrive?

Hey yeah, sorry you had a rough first day. We’ve got a real problem with people creating a new account, shoving five-ten posts, and then deleting your account. Fedi does get touchy about ads; I can’t see the post so I don’t really know how ad-y it was, but generally speaking self-promotion is accepted. You’re in the right place. In order, the fediverse apps you’re looking for are: Pixelfed, Friendica, Mastodon, dunno, dunno, Funkwhale, PeerTube, you don’t want this one on fedi.
