I mean, I still post to social media every day, but it's pixelfed. It's not toxic, it's just me throwing in my art on the pile with everyone else's art that I also get to flip through and enjoy, in chronological posting order, with no advertisements or other subject matter present.
No ads and no "algorithm". That's all I ask for
I remember when Facebook used to just show your friends posts in reverse chronological order. You could react to stuff in real time and it felt great. People would do stuff like watch sporting events and TV shows live and then react with all your friends online.
Then it changed to just pure alogrithm garbage filled with ads.
Mine is at https://pixelfed.social/tanisnikana, if you want to get an idea of what gets posted. There’s much better artists than me on that site too!
It’s a really interesting thing that happens, Pixelfed put me in touch with some amazing industry photographers like NatGeo dudes and such, and it’s actually got my photography career properly started.
Your work is beautiful. I'd heard of Pixelfed of course but never actually seen it before, and it's blowing me away. I'm looking at the explore page right now:

I'm a fan of landscape and nature photography anyway, and I absolutely love this. I crave beauty in these times, and there is plenty of it there. Many thanks.
Ah, OK! So it's basically de-enshittified Flicker.
that sounds amazing!
I use vernissage rather than pixelfed, but yeah, it's the only one I deliberately try and post to every day!
