The fediverse has many micro blogging implementations outside of mastodon if you don't like their featureset (and they federate with each other, unlike bluesky). The only features I couldn't find are those that contributed to making Twitter the dystopian toxic space that it is.
Is anyone here opposed to bringing more people? I'm upset that people are going to an unfederated platform like BlueSky. I wish more people to join, no matter who they are.
I haven't been on mastodon much, but lemmy is quite diverse.
Very much the same. I was terrified of regex, now I love it
I preferred the Internet that isn't driven by non-genuine posts by profit driven influencers. I am glad that those people don't like mastodon so they don't ruin another platform.
It's not the best platform for the profit driven, and I much prefer it that way.
Oh no, now nostr is ruined
And you'd still have federation issues, so doesn't solve OP's problem.
Actually being able to self host and federate, and without any dependence on the main instance.
And ability to federate with other open and federated services, like how mastodon can federate with so many others like lemmy and pixelfed.
Depends on the distribution, many package managers can filter by license. So you can find anything that doesn't have an open source license.
So what happens, does it just not boot? Any error messages?
Well I am speaking about users who may be picky about mastodon's features. If someone is picky, I don't imagine they'd care much about just finding a platform with their preferred features, similar to how they didn't like mastodon and found bluesky instead.
