I curate a site for papers and blogs
All of my fediverse instances in one post:
Fediverse is this complex network of many servers and many services and apps. Mastodon is a large well-formed server that looks like Twitter and indeed if you use halcyon front end, it will really look like you are working in twitter. You can also use pinafore front end to streamline the user interface. For a deep dive, check https://fediverse.party/
Besides Mastodon, there are other services and apps that are worth considering and several of them serve specific purposes. While mastodon, pleroma, and misskey serve similar purposes, i.e, allow text based, photo and video sharing and discussion among the various members of the servers and servers themselves, there are others that are more specialised, although they too, have the social aspects built in. Among them,
Peertube is similar to Youtube
Pixelfed is similar to Instagram
Funkwhale is similar to Spotify (allows music streaming and podcast)
Here are the lists of several instances.

Conference Videos: "I’m a big fan of an “exploded presentation” blog post ... where you export all the slides as individual images and you write the spoken commentary"

Have you posted a photo on Mastodon and the preview image hides something important?
If you're using the web version of Masto, you can alter the focus of the preview image when posting photos. Just click "Edit" on the image and move the circle around. When you've finished click "Apply".
(And while you're editing, do remember to add an image description for blind people!)
The two photos below are identical, but one has the focus set to the right and one to the left.
