One of the members of the GenZedong Matrix space recently created a communist Akkoma instance at spectreofcommunism.boo!
What is Akkoma?
Akkoma is like Mastodon but lighter and faster. It’s an open source microblogging platform where you can post “microposts”. It’s kind of similar to Twitter, but actually good :3
Like Lemmy, Akkoma is federated, meaning you can interact with people on other servers regardless of which server you’ve signed up on (similar to how you can see Hexbear users on Lemmygrad). Akkoma federates with all fediverse platforms, including Lemmy, so you can actually also interact with Akkoma users from Lemmygrad, and vice-versa!

I can join, probably will not post frequently but I have joined
I have deleted my account. I don’t think this type of social media is for me (or any form of social-social media tbh). I am topic oriented and have very little interest in people-centric stuff. Just FYI. ^ ^’
I’m late to the party, but yes, I use Lemmy way more than my Mastodon-ish account for this reason. I’m more interested in following communities/topics than specific people.
