Twitter, under the leadership of Elon Musk, continues to add features that make users more and more addicted. After all, the platform’s introduction of a daily limit on the number of tweets you can see has had a huge impact around the world. Android users started looking for the best Twitter alternatives.
You can now try on these Twitter alternative apps
What are the applications that offer a Twitter-like microblogging experience? Twitter, with its controversial innovations after Elon Musk and its emphasis on the paid Blue subscription, is forcing users to switch to alternative applications. The best applications to try in this respect are listed below:
- Mastodon
- Bluesky
- CounterSocial
Mastodon
The decentralised social network Mastodon has gained popularity since Elon Musk took over Twitter. The social media platform, which competes with Twitter and has recently seen a significant increase in users, has made it much easier to join.
Mastodon has been developed as free and open source software where anyone can add code and run it on their own server infrastructure or join servers in collective networks managed by others. The platform has also grown in popularity, especially with the recent emphasis on decentralisation.
Bluesky
Bluesky, which has a very similar design to Twitter, is actually similar in thought. The application, which allows you to share text, photos and videos, has a similar character limit to Twitter. The content you share on the platform cannot exceed 256 characters.
The interface is simple and generally blue, with the main menu on the bottom left, discovery in the middle and notifications on the bottom right, just like Twitter. The name of the application is like a reference to Twitter: Bluesky. The name, which means blue sky, may be a reference to Twitter’s blue bird.
Reddit is a popular social media platform where users can participate in discussions, share content and join communities called ‘subreddits’. Active since 2006, it is one of the most important tools on the internet with its specialised communities.
The platform is managed by a large number of topic-based communities, each with its own subreddit. These subreddits cover a wide range of topics including news, entertainment, technology, science, sports, games, music and art. Users can follow content by joining subreddits that match their interests.
CounterSocial
Covering more niche topics than other platforms, CounterSocial is also a privacy-focused platform. All content on CounterSocial is stored end-to-end encrypted. You can create your own list of followers and read posts from popular sources.
“No trolls. No abuse. No advertising. No fake news. No foreign activity”. It should also be noted that it has a very strict policy.
