Pretty much in the title. Maybe you wouldn’t even use it, but would like to simply see it exist for the sake of having a federated alternative.

For me, it’d be the following:

  • LinkedIn
  • Meetup
  • Tiktok

I am on the first two, but would prefer a federated alternative. I’m not on Tiktok, but would like to see a federated alternative.

I’ll admit these might not be a good idea. But as a thought experiment, I’d be curious about the community weigh in on what you all think this might look like.

    Pinterest, their recommendation algorithm is so good , and scary the more you learn about tech and how things can be used against you, it’s impossible to take advantage of that service without letting it learn more about you ( based on your saved pins and interactions ), it’s just how it works, and it works it’s just there’s no transparency or ethics involved, they sell your data

    So a FOSS alternative would be awesome, there’s Pinry but it’s self hosted
