The thing is that since all content is federated, each government would have to ask every single instance worldwide for user data. Seems unenforceable.

AFAIK not. Feel free to develop one!

Many people, including some in the thread!

But now that FB is overrun by AI bots and real users leave, there won’t be many mutual friends left very soon…

UK instance please! :)

Maybe you can request your instance to be added here: https://codeberg.org/flohmarkt/flohmarkt/wiki/flohmarkt-instances

The idea would be to host local instances.

Maybe share your vision with the devs or actively contribute yourself to the development of this platform? :)

Fleabook

Wouldn’t that lead to other instances engaging into “evil” instance-wide bans?

There is a “Global” feed.

Feel free to host an US instance :)

Maybe someone may want to put links to Flohmarkt instances on Craigslist or FB Marketplace to put more eyes on it?

Check out Flohmarkt https://codeberg.org/flohmarkt/flohmarkt Instance list here: https://codeberg.org/flohmarkt/flohmarkt/wiki/flohmarkt-instances

Bookface replicates the Facebook UI in Friendica :)

People only move to Bluesky because they don’t want to change their thinking (picking instances is hard!) and keep using “Twitter”.

FB Marketplace --> Flohmarkt is missing!

The Thunder app is still my number one candidate.

I guess thats what the Kickstarter is for. Also, don’t forget that the benefit of sup might be communication across all fediverse platforms, which means that as long as you have a single account in the fediverse, you can talk to all other accounts. Quite a bigger network than Signal, which is only a single platform.

Pixelfed user numbers seem to rise a lot: https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/28627765
