I’ve been on Mastodon for 5 years, and have a great community there. I also use WriteFreely, if you count that as social media—it’s really just a blogging platform, not a lot of interaction.
The only corporate social network I’m still on is LinkedIn, because it’s essential for my job.
I need to ask, how do you deal with other languages posts? here I mostly watch stuff in English, and that is fine, that’s how Reddit worked for me but on Mastodon other languages such as french, japanese and Chinese sneak out in my feeds (I follow hashtags of my interests) and that makes my experience poor.
I know there is a handy translation tool, but I’d rather want other users to respect the language posts (as I do, when I type in Spanish I change to the language for example, I also have a filter within the Mastodon settings to hide other languages but Spanish and English) than having to manually translate everything which is not in English or Spanish… It would be nice if the translator worked automatically too.
Sorry I can’t give a better answer, but I follow people rather than hashtags, and only people who post in a language I know, so it’s never been an issue for me.

Damn that’s a long time.
