i want a Pinterest replacement too. There is a project built on ATProto that functions a lot like Pinterest. I’d prefer something I could self host though.

I set up several Circles on mine. I have one called “People Only” and it is just the people I follow. No news sites or tech sites or RSS feeds for sci-fi tv, no celebrities or astronomy feeds or cat picture accounts, just people. When I want to catch up just with people I follow, I click it.

I did test the calendar feature with a non-event event and was able to see and respond to it from my Mastodon account. I have not yet played with the groups feature though. That is on my (eventual) to-do list.

I originally saw this post on reddit, then saw the thread had been brought here too. As I said over there, I LOVE Friendica for the Bluesky, Mastodon (etc), Tumblr, WordPress, and RSS integration. I wish I could recommend it to my non-tech friends trying to escape Facebook, but I can’t yet. They’d go crazy with the random freezes and errors. And the UI has some rough spots. But for me, it has become my primary browser tab for social media.
