I'm aware of kbin, mastodon, and lemmy. Are there any other federated applications out there?

Applications, social media interfaces, instances, I'm not sure what the correct word is šŸ˜….

Something that's often overlooked as being federated: Nextcloud.

How exactly does federation on Nextcloud work? I use a hosted Nextcloud instance but it's just an OneDrive alternative for me.

I think it's through the nextcloud social app, I haven't installed it though because my nextcloud is slow enough without it

Edit: just checked and it has mostly negative reviews and it's listed as beta

Why is nextcloud soo slow?? Is it just bloated?

I have no idea. I'm using the fpm docker image with a redis container and it's still slow as shit. I haven't looked at APCu though so that might help.

It's just an incredible pain to set up, I'd quite like to know it's not going to run like shit if I go through all that effort ha!
