I found this funny flow chart about traditional social media. I am wondering if there is a info graphic like this but with social media of the fediverse. If this does not exist, can someone create it?

Welp, done it

I'm not sure about all of it and had to remove the racist/sexist stuff, just because I don't know any software on the fediverse with controversies like this...

Feel free to give feedback and if you think I should change something, I'll post it later on this community !

From top to bottom, left to right :

Friendica GNUSocial / Mastodon Vernissage Wordpress ? Writefreely ? Pixelfed Loops Jlai.lu (French lemmy instance) / Lemmy (with the lemmy.world logo because it's more colorful than the plain lemmy logo)

most of pleroma instances are packed with nazis, go figure

also nostr is mostly altright and cryptobros (but it's not activitypub)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Nostr is a really good protocol, but its impossible to stop spam in and its full of cryptobros and people who were too extreme for twitter.

I’m not sure about all of it and had to remove the racist/sexist stuff, just because I don’t know any software on the fediverse with controversies like this…

Soapbox, a fork of Pleroma, is made by a TERF who previously worked for Gab.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Well, you got me. I'm trying to do better.

Unfortunately Reddit has plenty of racists these days. Like I’d say the average redditor is somewhat racist now. Which wasn’t the case 5 years ago.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They were more subtle about it but they've been there from the start. Now they're just more vocal.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

Do not mistake the vocal minority for the majority these assholes use bots and try to spread their agenda Every fucking place they go.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 week ago

Reddit is definitely for opinionated people that can't keep their mouth shut. And has quite a few bigots too. So this chart is unrealistically complimentary of redditors - I'm guessing you found it on reddit, which explains the judgemental opinion about TikTok and Insta.

The original image seems related to Westernsphere social media huh

Facebook in my region (Southeast Asia) is still filled with Gen Z, wirh various niche groups that often have more than 100K members. From anime meme to satirical anti-corruption group. Or fried chicken seller group and book barter for your small city.

I was active moderating on one local music group band on FB with 250K members.

I hope I can change Facebook for fediverse, but there's still no Facebook group alternative and actual active community on fediverse to make it happen.

"Got a Job?" for LinkedIn? The amount of desperate unemployed people there sharing yet another online certificate they've completed makes me think otherwise. 😬

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Unemployed people use LinkedIn mostly for the job board. The employed people use LinkedIn for the social media features, and oh boy

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago

This reminded me Threads exists. Huh, didn't know it was still around honestly

Do you like star trek and linux?

line continues after Reddit

"Do you care that anyone you speak to might be Ai?"

Yes - Lemmy

No - Line does a loop and goes back to Reddit

No one on LinkedIn has a real job, they're all just bragging about being self-employed or paid to post there to "generate positive public opinion on 50 hour work weeks".

Honestly at this point I might go back to 9gag, like I just wanna scroll through funny memes

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (4 children)

what's in the bottom left?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

9gag. A site that was funny in the past.

Nowadays it is full of reposting bots and pro russia, anti lgbt, racist and other content that are not good for the mental wellbeing.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That is 9gag.

Don't, just don't.

I appreciate you might be curious...

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

TIL 9gag still exists.

It used to be fun around 2015, i haven't visited it years

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Just slap the fediverse in place of the 'please stay off social media' rectangle.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

Hey! But I don't wanna use reddit anymore!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

Lemmy: every single on of those

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

This is just somebody trying to throw judgemental insults at a stereotype

Not really content you should be minding

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (7 children)

Isn’t instagram the same shit as Facebook in another container?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Both products of the same company but they seem like quite different experiences and userbases to me. Anecdotally, facebook is where my dad sends his friends things he found funny and instagram is where my brother posts pictures of his nights out

I am being a judgemental asshole toward myself because I ended up on Reddit per that flowchart.
