Looking for an entry to the Fediverse that's made for a single user. Preferably Reddit/Lemmy-like. (lemmy.jamestrey.com)

I'm hosting and running a Lemmy just for myself, and am having no problem with it. Lemmy is great. But I'm looking to branch out, and see what else exists out there.

@caos @butter All depends on what you're looking to get out of it. I've been quite happy with Friendica but it took me trying ~10 other things to learn that. I landed on it because it gave me the most compatibility with other fediverse things. Hubzilla or Streams are two others that offer even more compatibility but I haven't yet gotten comfortable enough with either to make a decision. Everything has slightly different features to offer, so I'd recommend give em all a ride. The main base models are going to be Mastodon, Pleroma, and Misskey. Each of those have a handful of forks to look at as well. If you're looking to self-host any of them, none are overly difficult as far as I understand.

These pages should provide you with more info than you probably want on em all.

Okay. Thank you very much. I have a lot of reading to do. I'll be sure to report on what I do and my opinion on whatever I land on.
