Firefish just has a different ✨vibe ✨ going on, although it’s not for everyone, here’s the guide I’d use:

Twitter -> Mastodon Reddit -> Lemmy Tumblr -> Firefish YouTube -> PeerTube

They all work the same, and are (to some extent interoperable), but it’s just what layout you’re used to the most.

thanks! As somebody who never used tumblr, what's the vibe?

Tumblr is focused more on microblogging, so there are longer form posts, fandoms, and artists. I still have my Tumblr account (for some reason, I never use it) so here’s a screenshot of what it looks like compare to Firefish.
