Mine was either mastodon or matrix. I got into both at the same time. What are some other fediverse sites for beginners?

PeerTube. I was getting really sick of Youtube, heard about it and went exploring.

By the way, Matrix, while it is a federated protocol, isn't part of the "Fediverse" (a word for federated software using the ActivityPub protocol [edit: and some others, see reply] , which are aimed towards social media rather than instant messaging)

@comfy
Fediverse is not only for ActivityPub. There are more. Diaspora, ostatus, zot at least.

Thanks for telling me, I just saw it on some fediverse charts

Hah, just a technicality. I like Matrix, but we won't be seeing any Matrix<->Mastodon interaction any time soon ;)

Huh, that's interesting that a chart included it, do you happen to remember which one?

I'll find it for you

Here, it sjows matrix on the side. I just meant encryption and private rooms tho. It was the one with trees https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fediverse#/media/File%3AFediverse_branches_1.2.png
