I plan to end my Facebook account before January 19. I like the format and would like something similar in the Fediverse. Also, I need a good Facebook alternative I can show people when trying to convince them to leave Facebook.

So what is the best Facebook alternative as of 2025? Frendica, Diaspora or Pleroma? Or something new and promising?

Even if you find an alternative it might not help you if not all the others would follow, too, and you could find the type of content and contacts you currently have in FB on that other platform.

Same problem with many social networks that became toxic, but that can't be replaced easily, because in other, better places, you might not find the same content and contacts.
