A tip for people used to birdsite's algorithms creating their timelines for them:

This thing works like Twitter did a long time ago. Your timelines are what you make them!

Liberally follow, unfollow, and mute accounts. Use the filter preferences (e.g. with "#eurovision" "@twitter.com"). Create a new timeline with hashtags to follow. In short: treat your timelines like a garden, both planting and pruning to your liking.

Write Freely is another type of server on the Fediverse

Its focus is entirely on long form text posts, so things like articles, essays, stories etc. It has a very minimalist interface which aims to be as distraction-free as possible, so that it's easier for readers to actually read.

You can follow Write Freely accounts from Mastodon etc because they are both on the Fediverse.

There's more info on the official site at https://writefreely.org and you can follow the project at @writefreely

You can get a Write Freely account from servers listed at https://writefreely.org/instances or at https://fedidb.org/software/writefreely

There are official apps at https://writefreely.org/apps
