I have already swapped like 95% of all of my american applications to European alternstives (all besides YouTube). However, I have a question…: What the heck is happening on Mastodon?

a) there are a few people there (even in comparison to Lemmy it is just microscopic

b) seems like Mastodon has never seen Any moderation: even though I followed politics-related people/organisations, Mastodon was, almost, bombarding me with unmarked and VERY unwanted NSFW content. Why?

So the question is: how to deal with Mastodon? Is it only me? It would be very nice to get back there and make theiving conversations and threads like here on Lemmy.

Vive l’Europe, Vesi

Especially if you were hoping for your Local feed to give you anything short of a firehose of everything. Starting on smaller instances, maybe an instance formed around a topic that interests you, or you are passionate about, usually means a much more usual local timeline. From there, like @[email protected] says, you can pull in the stuff you want from the other, and bigger, instances into your instance.
