mine is perhaps a mastodon with dislikes
a loops like but for youtube shorts instead of tiktok
email (i am not technical but since it is hard to self host email what if someone made a email that could be self hosted that is a part of the fediverse)
and a facebook like that isnt outdated as friendica
email
Email is the original federated service. It’s the way you explain the fediverse to newbies.
well sorry for providing little description on the email part
what i mean is that i know email is federated but like it isn’t easy to host and requires a bunch of stuff that you have to pay or not own for
so because the protocol’s that the fediverse uses are mostly modern basically i mean that it is a easy to host email requiring fewer things and fewers money to spend on
What makes e-mail hard to host is not the protocol, which is actualy great (especially for its age) or implementations (they are even better), but the actual specifics of the service: volume, popularity, importance. All these pull various bad actors: spammers, scammers, big corporations wanting monopoly, etc. I don’t think fediverse have means to fight that. E-mail services got a of mechanisms to fight most of that, and that makes it difficult to host.
maybe yes but since the implementation can have plugin support it will be likely that it wont be that hard (unless the plugin’s have bugs)
especially if that implementation can defederate without bugs and also i expect people making those implementations can add a send limit per minute or something else
The problem isn’t a lack of plugins. Email servers have all sorts of “plugins”. Any spammer prevention plugin you can think of, and a thousand others that you haven’t even imagined have already been implemented for email.
And email servers already defederate all the time. That’s why it is hard to get small email servers to reliably send mail. You have to convince others to federate with you.
Do you host any type of Fediverse server? If no, why not?
i do self host things just not fediverse i know to use nextcloud searxng and a bit more
My point being, yes hosting email is a pain in the ass but it can be done. Hosting a Fediverse server is also a good bit of work. So email is the original federated protocol but there’s really no way to “fix” it.
maybe but also like i dont think we should fix email we should start from 0 again IMAP is rotting
Ethnical LinkedIn alternative
LinkedIn is mostly unethical because of it’s user base. I call it facebook for corporate psychopaths.
this sounds great

I want something to get my wife off Pinterest.
Damn, guess they sell everything there now.
pixelfed is likely gonna help her
I was under the impression that Pixel was more like Instagram. I’ve never used either Pinterest or Instagram so I don’t understand exactly what the differences are, but I’m reasonably sure there are some.
Nope, it’s not the same. Far from it. I wish it was.
i want something that was reddit circa 2007-2013.
lots of nerdy cool stuff without the politics.
lemmy is too politics and not enough nerdy stuff.
I would like something like nostr for user accounts so that you could just go to any federation thing and be on it but I would like every federated thing to have a config tab combined with something like trust cafe where you can rate everything and your view would be based on your own private ratings (I don’t think they are private in trustcafe. make make public private a user option) and then cap it off with as much configuration and more that piefed has to allow for configuring your feed.
A fediverse with people?
you could be a part of the fediverse and make content for it on the parts that need it (such as loops and peertube) if you can and if you want to
one that is similar to indeed forums/ glassdoor reviews which allows to segregate fields, jobs, or certain areas of the industry by category, but without the astroturfing and shutting down, the only problem is getting a huge userbase to use it.
A proper platform for open science. Link doi, they get referenced, be able to search by doi, either interact with a pseudonym or identify with orcid.
I have some hopes for bonfire, as they are working on an open science flavor, but I also hope it would get broadly adopted.Facebook but old school bbs that you self-host on a raspberry pi and every message is encrypted and you can only read it if the poster included you in the recipients.
So that you only see posts from the friends and family members (or other accounts if you are into that) who you follow.
Just a pull based community and not a single push notification in sight.
so it is that you make a post you send it to people and only those people can see it right?
Correct
tumblr. tumblr’s style of post is much better than twitter. there’s goblin.band but it’s way too small
I don’t mean to argue with you on your idea, but YouTube shorts, Instagram reels, and tiktok are the same thing. Loops basically is just that. The only difference I can think of (aside from maybe technical behind the scenes things in how each company did it) are the communities and content.
Is that what you want? Loops to just be more like shorts than tiktok?
Mastodon with conversations. Maybe I’m just on the wrong instance, or not following the right people, but it’s all just posts with empty comment sections.
you may want to follow people to find stuff
- I can login using my user/pass and login to any of the instances.
- I can up/downvote things like on lemmy/piefed.
- I can create custom feeds for myself either mastodon style OR lemmy/piefed style with sudo algorithms.
- I can subscribe to and fedi service and it just works.
More pornography.
You haven’t found FediNSFW yet? It’s been steadily growing.
I don’t know if there’s much to a platform that would make it pornography-specific. I’d think that one would just use an existing platform for pornography.
thinks
Maybe tagging based on geographical legal restrictions or something. Or maybe more extensive efforts to maintain privacy than is typically the case with ActivityPub.
the old luelinks with the links.
