Any reason to join the #fediverse is a good one. For microblogging, join #mastodon. Video creator? Join #peertube! Into pictures? Join #pixelfed! Into books? Join #bookwyrm! Do you organise events? Join #Mobilizon!
You can subscribe to all of those services from one account. It's like following Instagram (Zuck), YouTube (Brin and Page) and Goodreads (Bezos) accounts from Twitter (Musk)!
Publish-subscribe at its finest, brought to you by the #openstandard #activitypub: https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/.
@Erik you can follow all these accounts from mastodon and pixelfed oder Pleroma I guess. With mobilizon you can not follow a #funkwhale channel, and If you could, you wouldn't get any content. As you can not receive #peertube content via a funkwhale account oder a #gancio account. The impression that you could do everything with one account on one plattform is missleading.
But yeah, #fediverse is cool
@Erik
Similar setup here, except for books
