Why even thought twitter and reddit are going into selfdestruction only twitter alternatives became somehow popular? (lemmy.world)

@niszogen IDK if I’d consider it just a Twitter alternative. From Mastodon I can follow any Lemmy communities on federated servers and see the same posts that I can see in my WefWef app on my @Khazram@lemmy.world account.

how do you follow Lemmy communities on mastodon

[–] khazram@mastodon.social 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

@niszogen All I have to do is know which instance, the community is that I want to follow, is on. For example @aww@lemmy.world was the first option that came up when I typed Aww into my Explore tab on Mastodon but I could also follow @aww@lemmy.ml if I wanted to.

The hardest part was getting used to a different type of UI. I never used Twitter much but I was a Redditor for 10 years.
