Diaspora* - is it any good? - eviltoast

I just read up on it and it seems good, at least in theory. How does it compare to Lemmy, would you say?

    Yep that was my experience too. Deafened by the silence. Firefish was like that too. Lemmy’s nOt aS bIg aS rEdDiT but at least people reply to you here.

      Well firefish federated perfectly well with masto and the other microblogs, so its userbase size doesn’t matter so much.

        That’s what I heard about kbin too. Doesn’t make sense to me, but I guess people like this kind of thing.

          I don’t think it’s true that kbin federated perfectly with masto. It’s more accurate that it consume content from masto but doesn’t provide a complete substitute for microblogging. Firefish is a complete microblogging platform on the other hand.
