GoToSocial/en

{{InfoboxTemplate:LangSwiInd |title=GoToSocial |website=docs.gotosocial.org |instance=gts.superseriousbusiness.org}} GoToSocial is a microblogging service and one of the Template:Internal Link's replacements for Twitter.
It is just a server though, without a frontend, which means you have to use Tusky, Elk, or another Mastodon-compatible app to use it.

What does GoToSocial feel like?

Since you use it with Tusky or Elk it feels exactly like Template:Internal Link when using one of these apps.
There are just a few little differences.

Your profile and public posts also have a read-only web view which is simpler than the web view on Mastodon.

What are some advantages over Twitter, Mastodon & Co?

With GoToSocial you have a character limit of 5000 by default - the admin can change that.
Same goes for the default limit for poll options (6) and other limits.

The web view loads a lot faster than on Mastodon.

For admins, GoToSocial uses less storage, memory and other resources than Mastodon, so it can run on less powerful systems.
