Hmm… somehow all of them now that I think about it. I don’t use a single meta platform (even though my family hates me for not using WhatsApp for years). Also no Twitter and most recently no reddit. Not even YouTube anymore
It’s not that I don’t like it. It’s more like I don’t have the time anymore and rather watch a series or movie if I find the time. Oh and I hate all these ads on YouTube. Yes I could block them, but I rather don’t have to deal with this at all.
I escaped pretty much every major social media platform.
Social media addiction was wasting much of my time and sometimes even making me kinda depressed.
I currently haven't ran from any community, just sort of browsing for better solutions but I guess I've never really liked most platforms. Nor actually post on them to much, my family and friends still use META based platforms so I still have them but really don't use them but from what I've seen so far with Lemmy & the Fediverse I really do hope this is the future of the internet.

What are alternatives for YouTube though? Vimeo?
Gorroth@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y
Actually I don’t use any alternatives. When I have time to watch videos I watch something on Netflix.

You don't like commentary videos? That's pretty much all I ever watch on YouTube.

You have time for a full movie but not a twenty-minute commentary video? That seems backwards to me.
Gorroth@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y
No not for a full movie in one part. But with Netflix gladly I can pause the movie and then resume where I left.

What genre of music is "Lemmy and the Fediverse?"
SamXavia@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y
Not music, It's what the Decentralised Socials run off and I use Lemmy for my 'Reddit' Alternative.

I was making a joke because it sounds like a band name.
