Friendly for Facebook mentions (5)

• Ask HN: Banned from Facebook

  I created a facebook account about 6 months ago for one reason only: to interact with a rare disease group that setup shop on facebook. I post once a month at most, last month to share a dissertation in the research group and 2 months ago to discuss fitness trackers in the parent group. I donated money to the foundation when they were asking for donations and I read new posts from time to time using an app on the... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• How to follow without reddit?

  Friendly app does a pretty good job with hiding ads etc. Https://friendly.io/. Source: 10 months ago

• Trying to convince my FIL that a guy on Facebook selling a "cure for diabetes" is a scammer. Can anyone help me provide him solid "proof?" I know it's stupid but he's stubborn.

  Friendly Social Browser https://friendly.io/ is for mobile, you would delete the Facebook app and use Friendly instead. Source: about 1 year ago

• Current FOSS list - let me know what you think!

  Frost - Facebook Mobile Site wrapper. No longer supported, unfortunately. Friendly is a decent, if non-FOSS replacement. It has the edge with keyword filters. Source: over 1 year ago

• I created MacTube: a native YouTube app for Macs

  Nice and simple! I’ll give it a try. I’ve been using FriendlyStreaming (https://friendly.io), but I don’t really like it. Your app is much simpler and to the point. Source: about 2 years ago

• Mastodon provides the highest (over 12%) engagement under posts

  > whatever that Ruby-based alternative was, that Zuck famously invested in, but to which I have zero memory of the name right now I think you're referring to Diaspora. https://diasporafoundation.org/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaspora_(social_network). - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Imgur Is About to Wipe a Ton of Porn From the Internet

  Maybe if reddit manages to kill itself, one of the decentralized projects like diaspora will expand. Source: 12 months ago

• Twitter will remove accounts created solely to promote other social platforms

  I remember making similar comments about Diaspora vs Facebook a decade ago, but people are... lazy. Yeah, let's go with lazy. Source: over 1 year ago

• Stop

  To be fair, its not Mastodon, its the #Fediverse. Mastodon is arguably the least rich platfrom on the 'verse. IMHO Friendica is where its at, and you can still communicate with all the twitter refugees on Mastodon, as well as meater content on services likeDiaspora*, not to mention full integration with Lemmy (which works fairly similar to Reddit) while Masto you can see lemmy posts and replies without having to...

• Open source social media

  Several upstarts have tried to capture what you're talking about. Diaspora was an early entry, the Fediverse is another that seems to be gaining momentum in a way Diaspora never did. Source: over 1 year ago
