Which social media platforms are a good match for SailfishOS?

Thanks to Sailfish X, and to the Youyota tablet, it looks like some of us will soon get our hands on a SailfishOS + Dalvik device for the first time. This has started me thinking about what social media platforms would make a good match. I am thinking particularly of platforms that:

  • Work smoothly with SFOS (maybe with a native SFOS app?)
  • Fit in with the philosophy of not profiling/monetizing users, and respecting their privacy

Would some existing SFOS users be prepared to share their experiences and thoughts? I have looked in a superficial way at Wire and JoinDiaspora, and I would be very interested in hearing about how people have got on with them and also other similar platforms on their SFOS devices.

Personally, I am not interested in Facebook or Google stuff: my objections to them are what have kept me interested in SFOS for all this time.
