Are there any innovative platforms in the Fediverse? (reddthat.com)

I've explored a few platforms within the Fediverse, but most of them seem to be inspired by and mimic existing mainstream social media platforms like Twitter, Reddit, and Facebook. While this familiarity can be comforting, I can't help but wonder if there are any truly innovative and original platforms out there that offer a unique experience.

What makes them unique? How do they reimagine the social media experience?

I think the open data projects have a fair potential for innovation. They need some kind of backbone for permanence which would need widespread federation, but they're a conceptually interesting addition to the Fediverse.
