I was never an avid #Twitter user, so "switching" to #Mastodon during the #eXit movement was quite easy (my last tweet was from mid 2020, and there where only 12 answers to other posts form 2020 till my switch to here in 2022).

However, getting rid of the #Meta services feels more difficult. Non the less, I made that cut now, as well, and am quite proud of myself for it.

On the way, I found a service that is not part of the #fediverse but as a #opensource product with #selfhosting capability at least in the close vincinity;

@linkstack is a replacement for the proprietary and profit-oriented LinkTree. You can run a #selfhosted instance of it, or choose from one of the nearly 20 different public instances listed at their website. I'm loving it, so far - and especially now, while switching away from all my proprietary social networks it is a great help to poiting people with one single link, to where they can find you in future.

Plus - as many other (proprietary) services do not yet support links to mastodon, pixelfed, and others ( #LinkStack btw *does*!), but all of them usually have a homepage field, this is the one URL that will help you out in these instances.
