GoToSocial
GoToSocial is a microblogging service and one of the Fediverse's replacements for Twitter.
It is just a server though, without a frontend, which means you have to use Tusky or Pinafore to use it.
 A lot of info might still be missing and the page might change at any time. |

What does GoToSocial feel like?
Since you use it with Tusky or Pinafore it feels exactly like Mastodon when using one of these apps.
There are just a few little differences.
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.
