@andy @thisismissem What do you mean by "governance"? In Friendica we don't have a defined structure or a defined leader (I hope). We discuss possible new features and we mostly act in consensus. So I guess everyone is welcomed who is a team worker and doesn't want to push some agenda against the will of the other members.

The codebase is PHP.

@SheDrivesMobility Er ist auch auf Bluesky, Threads und Instagram aktiv. Es ist eher so, dass er auch die bedient, die noch da sind, aber keinen Grund bietet, dort zu bleiben. Nur das Fediverse bedient er leider nicht.

Alles gute für die OP!

@meanmicio I deeply hope that they will find this constant flow of money and that they will become the equivalent of "Signal" in the world of social networks, since I guess that (money aside) they are doing a really good job.

But don't misunderstand me: My heart belongs to the Fediverse. I'm coding for it now for more than 10 years and I'm one of the maintainers of one of the systems in the Fediverse.

@meanmicio According to bsky.social/about/faq there are no more billionaires on the board:

I don't see the "dopamine" problem there either. There is no default algorithm. Instead, you can choose or even create one or more algorithms of your choice.

However, there is one big "but" that I think I share with you. And that is the problem that you will somehow need a constant flow of money. And the question is, where is that going to come from in the long term?

@mattgrayyes @ErinInTheMorn It's an interesting test. Although I suppose there will be some false positives. For example, I think I wouldn't hesitate for a second, even though I've never had the impression that I was born in the wrong body - but I think I would find the idea fascinating.

I find it fascinating that the trans community has developed this test themselves. I think that makes it a lot more accurate than some tests that have been developed by people who don't know the feeling of uncertainty of being trans or not.
