Telegram channels alternative
Hello! What is the best alternative to Telegram channels in Fediverse? I need platform where I can post messages in different topics and users can subscribe to them.
Telegram channels are basically discord so:
Discord and Matrix is more messangers and "groups chats" when Telegram Channels similar to Mastodon but with specific topic
Telegram Channels similar to Mastodon but with specific topic
So is Matrix. There are both general interest and topical Matrix rooms (eg support or development channels for specific software projects).
AFAIK Matrix isn't ActivityPub compatible like most of the fediverse, if that's what you're asking, but there are official and unofficial bridges for several other platforms so it may be possible.
I'm not understanding. With Matrix you get channels like "Rust" where you join and it's all about the Rust programming language. Or you can have a group chat with a few people in it.
They're not, they're more like Twitter circles. A channel is one or more authors (that can be masked as simply a post by the channel) blogging to infinite many followers.
I think it doesn't have channels

It seems what I need but it is incompatible with ActivityHub, so cannot be followed or viewed in Fediverse (Mastodon)
Websites can be bridged to ActivityPub with https://fed.brid.gy
Could use a Lemmy community I guess
Also Lemmy posts aren't displayed correctly on Mastodon
No, in Lemmy communities everyone can post messages, and discuss.
I can just create several Mastodon accounts and use each for separate topic bit it is not very comfortable.
I wouldn't say best, but Movim (xmpp based) has a personal and shared blog feature, which the latter being somewhat similar in concept to Telegram channels, even though the UX is more blog like.
It is like what I need. I registered on conversations.im but can't access neither my account nor created channel from Mastodon. How to fix this?
I think you are confused. conversations.im is not the best place to register for using Movim. Better chose from https://join.movim.eu
Also, XMPP is not ActivityPub, which Mastodon uses.
Try to rephrase the question: is there an alternative to Mastadon in Fediverse where you can write posts in different threads (not only in your own feed)?
Why do you want sub-accounts, if you can have as many regular accounts as you want?
Seems like this is the only way. But if I want to create many accounts I need have several emails or self-host own instance.
Will the WordPress integration work for you?
It is too powerful for small messages posting
