This is my review of the Friendica social network, and a follow-up to a previous video I did about the Fediverse. Friendica is my new favourite way to interact with social media, and in this video, I explain why.
As always, my current social media contacts are always on my web site.
Detailing my experiments with the fediverse. You can join the services I mentioned using the links below: PeerTube, Mastodon, Diaspora, PixelFed, Also, my current accounts on these services can be found on my personal web site.
I didn't know you had a Peertube channel! Very nice introductory video to Friendica. Please continue making videos like this and spreading #fediverse awareness.
I checked out #friendica a while back when I first learned about the Fediverse but I never actually used it. Mastodon seemed enough for my needs. However, I do admit that contact groups, granular post visibility controls, and wide communication protocol compatibility are nice features you don't see together in other platforms.
That was my first Mastodon account. I created my account there but then the topics of my toots expanded beyond FOSS so I created an account on mastodon.social
You could also have moved the account from fosstodon to mastodon.social 😀
Toots creeping "out of topic" is one of the reasons I created this poll. I want to know how people generally address this on Mastodon, if it's a concern at all.
That's true. I wonder to what degree that's acceptable though. If someone adds my account to a list catered to #privacy for example, I wouldn't wanna pollute their feed with "off-topic" toots. Am I overthinking this?
I run two accounts, but I think I'm a no on this because one of them is an organisation's account that theoretically might end up being used by someone else sometime.
