I've been using https://raindrop.io/ and it seems to work pretty well. Good for syncing between devices, reading later, etc.

Looking for OneNote Alternative in c/foss@beehaw.org

Notesnook is a pretty good service. More of a less clunky Evernote. It's free by default but has paid for options and also very privacy focused.

With the decline of twitter and reddit, it's time to take a look at RSS again if you haven't already. in c/technology@beehaw.org

FreshRSS is cools. The way mamma used to make.

Lemmy users, do you use it because of the wider fediverse or because of reddit? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

I’d agree with both. The generally calmer and ad free experience here makes it a good Reddit alternative. It being federated opens things up better as well.

A new onboarding experience on Mastodon in c/mastodon@lemmy.ml

I know what they're going for but yeah it does seem like an iffy move to sign everyone up for a main server. Unless they're letting people get settled and then emailing/encouraging them after a couple weeks/months to change instances?

Problem with that being that most people won't want to move after setting things up in the first place.

[@fediverse](https://lemmy.ml/c/fediverse) What type of social media do you feel is lacking most in the fediverse? in c/fediverse@lemmy.ml

A less messy and equally as comprehensive version of IMDB would be fantastic. I’m not sure what that would look like exactly; instance of something vs a full blown federated platform of its own… But would be cools either way.
