Peer2Peer tier (Impossible to take down)

Briar (Chat, groupchat/private forums and Forums) ManyVerse (Chat, groupchat up to 7 and Facebook style posts) Jami (Chat and groupchat) Aether (Reddit style forum)

Decentralized tier (Hard to take it all down at once, no single point of failure)

Mastodon replaces twitter Diaspora/Friendica replaces Facebook Lemmy replaces Reddit Basically anything that support ActivityPub

Self-hosted tier (Easy to take down)

Nextcloud (pi) for home cloud YunoHost for private hosting, Matrix/XMPP/email/websites, scripts etc.

Phone and computers (Disregarding the physical spy chips on modern CPU's)

Use Linux on your computer, use open source ROMs on your phone. If you can't hack it, it's not your hardware.

Mastodon

So far as I can tell, there's nothing on Mastadon. I don't think anyone really wants to learn how to use it. It seems rather counter-intuitive and un- user-friendly.

I subscribe to a lot of open source producers (pinephone, fairphone etc) and programmers, newsbots, interesting people etc.

Mastodon isn't just a website like twitter, it's thousands of mastodon websites interconnected.

I also subscribe to youtube and instagram style platforms through the same account and get it in the same feed. I run a dedicated script that converts RSS to AP, so I subscribe to newssites through Mastodon too.

No wonder nobody is using it - I REALLY don't want to go to work when I get home from work!

That's a false assumption.

I REALLY don't want to go to work when I get home from work!

You don't understand the concept of user choice and filtration. Go watch TV and listen to radio grandpa.

I understand that it's already a failed endeavor, shitbird. A waste of time.
