minus-squarenasi_goreng@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down1·1 month agoMisskey. It’s not exactly niche, but it has a lot of cool features. For example: Drive features to reuse your image or other media. Misskey games, so far only have Bubble Game and Go. Groups Antenna, basically subscription for any post with your set of rules. Playful profile decoration, similiar to Discord/Steam.
