I feel like everyone suggests following hashtags, but depending on the hashtag, I find the content that’s being posted quite overwhelming when it comes to the amount of toots, and that it’s hard to get an overview. Anyone that relates?

    I follow where you’re coming from.

    I can see the perks to the Bluesky option, but given it’s centralized, venture capital funded (and they’re already trying to figure out monetization), and so forth, I’m personally not inclined to rely on much related to it.

    However, I’m very aware of the hurdles the option I shared present to those unfamiliar with all of this, and why they’d choose otherwise. Then again, we’re here using this stuff, I’m posting from a microblogging instance (Sharkey) to you, and so my posts are also indirectly for others on other microblogging instances (like those using Mastodon).

    For anyone these replies may reach on a Mastodon instance, using Phanpy is much simpler. It’s just going to Phanpy.social, logging in with their info, and they’re set to use it. Much like someone on Lemmy can go to Phtn.app and give Photon a try.

    All that said it would be preferable if there was a guest accessible version to Phanpy (or any similar catch up-style service for fediverse stuff), without a doubt.
