It’s the best Chromium browser. Company seems like it’s run by decent people who listen to their users.

Smaller instances won’t have a lot of the issues that the main instance has. I run one at https://dmv.pub. DMV being the DC/Maryland/Virginia region but anyone is welcome to join.

Yep! I’m going to go with the C1 Pro for $80!

You’re welcome to join my https://dmv.pub Kbin instance. It federates with Lemmy.

I thought it had Gateron Browns.

I’m not worried about that because I hard wire my keyboards anyway.

I love Keychron. I have a K2. Was thinking about a C1 Pro Custom. Only $80.

I’ve been an early adopter subscribe for months and I’m loving it. The tools available make searching easier and so much more useful.

I started paying for Kagi a few months ago and I’m loving it. Search results and tools are great. People balk at paying for a search engine, but at least this way I know I’m not the product.

No hashtags, no full text search. Just an algorithmic feed and a following feed, and you can only search users.

This is what happens when you launch with no content discovery features, so you have to whore yourself out and follow anyone and everyone if you want to get any attention. “Content creators” and clout chasers are the primary customer of this service, so without that I don’t know why they’d want to use it.

I switched to Firefox/Librewolf (with a brief stint on Vivaldi) last year and haven’t looked back.

CalcKey just rebranded to Firefish. It has a very pretty UI but UX is currently bad as there is no way to globally disable boosts so you will see the same posts in your timeline over and over and over again. Following hashtags is limited to the Antennas feature so you won’t see those posts in your timeline. Until they fix these things it’s unusable for me personally.

Have you tried Akkoma or Pleroma? I run an Akkoma instance at https://shrediverse.net if you want to try it out. You can use the web app or an app like Fedilab on Android.

Have you tried other ways of viewing Mastodon? Different web apps or mobile apps? Like https://elk.zone , https://phanpy.social , https://semaphore.social.

There’s been a circle jerk going on for years and now they decide they’re unhappy?!

The fediverse has made social networking fun again.
