Yeah I unfollow ppl if they like stuff I dont like since it taints the algorithim, for the most part I get a suprisingly decent feed on my official real person account, and a really good one for my 3d visuals account.
I like seeing other ppls likes, my whole twitter feed used to be some of my friends likes that ithe algorithim realized I enjoyed (itd show who liked it when showing you the post) my feed went to shit after they turned that off.

Touchdesigner, if you want to put a little effort in and can run it.

most of social media is anonymous, ill remember you theoctonaut from mander, that makes this social media, I remember some users and see them pop up all the time, theres a social aspect, its not just sharing links

helps a little if they have close to standard names

https://lemmyverse.net/communities

I need to redload reddit or some frontend so I can steal interesting links from there to post, one day ill be bored and feel like growing some communities

I do think if any of those pop culture communities get abnend because of a controversy they might come here, isnt there a defederated drama community?

I don’t feel out of it, but I also use tiktok, ig reels (suprisingly amazing algorithim, least controversial, my 3d edm visual profile (amateur af) only sees 3d and edm reels for the most part, doesn’t really favor low follower counts but its great for popular stuff.

I miss old twitter, wondering if any mastodon or pleroma instance is like that. Sharkey seems more tumblr ppls vibe. It was always current and fun to talk in.

Reddits out of it forsure, ppl can identify a redditor and its never a compliment lol. I always hated when ppl called me on, but they were spot on. Lemmy’s not too bad, ppl just dont seem to care about pop culture here, might be due to lack of communities or posters, gotta be the change you want to see in growing communities like this.

I need to start posting more stuff on the edm ones, I feel out of the loop there and want them to be as active as reddit was.

If I ask something here, no one will tell me to google it because it was asked before 5 years ago (like mf that information isn’t relevant still)

Reddit is fake liberal idk what it is, mfs say its so liberal but id be forced to see conservative posts with no way to block them

Less repetitive, less “inside” jokes that get spammed, people reply. I got used to arguing so much that I get defensive here, everyone wants to argue over everything on reddit, while here ppl are more likely to show interest.

also easy to host for yourself

I use an alternative frontend for actually watching stuff, just google and find one with a public instance, no ads, can do pip on your phone for free

Getting weird ad blocker issues, site didnt have ads last time I used it, might not be good anymore

If you do buy it, buy hardware from them it comes with the 300$ one time purchase so you can get free hardware with it basically

vfxmed I thought had linux but it couldve been mac, maybe here https://codec.kyiv.ua/ofx.html

Doesn’t it require identifying yourself or something? I saw the warning and moved on.

Hunger.sucks for a charity maybe lmao

Too many file extensions can be used as domains lol

Lol .jpg and .abc domains when? Actually suprised abc isnt one while xyz is, maybe alembics already existed.
