I remember when you could go on Facebook and look through your feed at what your friends are saying, catch up with them, and browse posts that they have made. Now, it’s just completely random and chaotic, almost nonsensical. There’s no logical sense to my Facebook feed at all. As you can see in the image, they are showing me stuff that I’m not even following. This is not even something that I am actively a part of! It’s some random group. So what’s the point of following a group or liking a page, if they’re just going to show you random stuff anyway?

Like, wtf happened to this website?

    I do know of a project that does what you are looking for, decentralized (100%), FOSS, easy to set up, encrypted…

    I built a very basic chat program on top of it quite easily, a “FB clone” is not far away IMO.

    So what’s the project? It’s my Tenfingers protocol & implementation (http://tenfingers.org) and it’s just waiting for adoption!

    I’m in the process of making the documentation and installation guide, but you can check it out right now.

    I’d love showcasing it somewhere, getting feedback, help out with problems etc.

      sounds interesting, is the source code on somewhere like codeberg or GitHub?

      How does it work?

          Very cool. 100% over my technical knowledge level but I’ll take a look at the code and give it a whirl when I get a chance.

          I think it would be awesome if it worked. Power to the people! ;)

            Hey thank you!

            I finally have some free time ahead, I’ll put together a first ‘real’ documentation that covers installation and basic use cases so that people actually can have a chance of testing it for real. I’ll swap the cringy 1990 web page for it on tenfingers.org

            Do tell if you try it out 👍🏻
