    Bluesky is another alternative, whilst not decentralized, its been pretty cool over there. I also have a mastodon account though

      So what’s the point? enshitification will inevitably hit them as well and then people will have to migrate again and again

        I love the fediverse, but it hasn’t fully solved the migration need problem. If I open an account on an instance which I later discover I don’t like, I have to migrate for that as well.

        The point as I see it is just limited to who do I want to follow, and what platforms can I use to do so? If bluesky turns to shit in a decade, but I get value out of it for that decade, maybe that’s enough for my needs.

        (FWIW, I am not on bluesky)

          But at least the user content doesn’t disappear into a black hole. Like what happened to parts of reddit.

          For Mastodon there’s a feature for transferring your account from one server to another, with its history, etc.
