    I don’t think those brands are familiar enough yet to put up their logos without their names.

      For anyone who’s wondering in the comments. The logos are: Peertube, Mastodon and Friendica.

    I love how someone seems to have made the peertube logo from scratch for this post. Shaky craftsmanship, but craftsmanship nonetheless.

    That’s a great idea but you should provide detailed explanations or at least mention the platforms you are identifying. I am a little bit familiar with them but I still had to look them up.

    Peertube

    PeerTube is a free and open-source, decentralized, ActivityPub federated video platform. It can use peer-to-peer technology to reduce load on individual servers when videos get popular. As an ActivityPub platform, it is part of the federated network known as the Fediverse.

    Mastodon

    Mastodon is a free and open-source software platform for decentralized social networking with microblogging features similar to Twitter. It operates as a federated network of independently managed servers that communicate using the ActivityPub protocol, allowing users to interact across different instances within the Fediverse.

    Friendica

    Friendica (formerly Friendika, originally Mistpark) is a free and open-source software[5] distributed social network. It forms one part of the Fediverse, an interconnected and decentralized network of independently operated servers.

      When they hear more about Xing, Postmarket OS, Ubuntu Touch and Interac to demand their representatives to invest in these great available alternatives.

      A few years after the rest of the world stops using them.

    Give tax credits to companies that help serve content via something like Peertube. They can use their spare capacity.

    Use it for CBC as well.

    And they dont have to necessarily bring in any communities to their official Lemmy/masto/Friendica server: use them to disseminate info. It’s the same thing they’re doing on bsky, the same as they were doing on xitter, and the simplest thing to do on these new ones too.

    Mark “Big Daddy” Carney is pretty active on Blue Sky… or his team was pretty active during his campaign.
