Good morning! I hope this community is not dead 😵

I was objectively wondering if it was advantageous to switch from a Nothing Phone 2 or 2a (which one is already the best?) Since an iPhone 13.

That’s it. Otherwise, do you prefer Nothing or Apple?

I am looking for an alternative to bird.makeup (Because it doesn't work anymore) that allows me to follow Twitter accounts on Mastodon. I saw on GitHub there was a tool called Touitomamout (https://github.com/louisgrasset/touitomamout) which is up to date and apparently does the job well but I don't know much about Docker. Is there an instant solution for me to follow Elon Musk on Mastodon 😆.

 

I’m not going to make a big paragraph to explain myself but here are the positive points:

  • No advertising
  • Diversified applications
  • Very good freedom of expression
  • Fedivers
  • Verification (using a website)

Now negative points:

  1. I was sold instances that served as a mirror with X which would have facilitated integration into Mastodon for users like me. Only 2% of the accounts I follow on X are on Mastodon (Mozilla, Proton).

  2. There are not really « fun » accounts like https://x.com/humansnocontext that post funny video clips, I find Mastodon a little too serious, I see a lot of political accounts and sometimes the lives of normal people like mine. It’s a shame 😕. I mean, I chose Lemmy because it’s so much more diverse!

  3. You cannot change your username. It’s a shame about that...

Well, that was my opinion on Mastodon.

If you have recommendations, favorites of Mastodon accounts, share them with me.

 

Real question. I would like to know what drives you to hate Apple? (In terms of privacy of course because in terms of price it’s another story).

Hello, I hope you are well.

This is a very special period because I am migrating to the Fedivers. If I’m talking to you here, it’s because you suspect Reddit is a first step! Now I’ve moved to Mastodon. I took the mas.to instance and I was faced with a problem: who to follow? So I was wondering if you had any content proposals that I could follow on Mastodon. I am strongly recommended to follow hashtags so I also take.

(I didn’t know it but thanks to ActivityPub I can follow Lemmy communities from Mastodon, if it’s not crazy)

It would be a solution in the short term but do people know how to mirror a Twitter account for free?
