   Some Fediverse alternatives to "big tech" social media:

   Twitter ➡️ @Mastodon

   Instagram ➡️ @pixelfed

   YouTube ➡️ @peertube

   Twitch ➡️ @owncast

   Goodreads ➡️ @bookwyrm

   Facebook Groups ➡️ @mobilizon

   Medium ➡️ @writefreely

   You don't need an account on all of these in order to interact with them.

   Because they all use the ActivityPub open protocol, you can (for example) use a Mastodon account to follow someone on PixelFed or vice versa. That's why they are collectively known as the Fediverse, because they federate together at a technical level.

   Also, this is an incomplete list, there are many other Fedi projects out there such as @funkwhale or @inventaire that are not direct alternatives but are their own thing.

     @feditips great list. One more though:

     Reddit ➡️ @LemmyDev

     There are many Lemmy instances these days (here's an anarchist-leaning Polish instance, https://szmer.info/ @szmer ), and they federate: for example, one can follow the Solarpunk community on Szmer by following @solarpunk.

     Gotta say I am pretty excited about Lemmy joining fedi.
