The main thing I wanted from Mastodon was to have conversation related to something other than computers. I could have survived longer otherwise :) I haven't logged in in years and have lost the link to my instance / handle.
That said, I don't log into social media in general anymore (nitter instead of twitter, libredd.it instead of reddit, yewtu.be instead of youtube). midnight.pub and IRC are "just right" for me.
I have to check out the former things you list and check out IRC. I remember IRC was easy to download and set up back when it first appeared, what is it like setting up IRC these days?
