I had a lot of fun last night cruzing the fediverse on free speech extremist .

We’ve kinda built up a name brand here at wolf balls. Launching and keeping a instance up reliably for over three months with basically less than 5 minutes total downtime.

People don’t yet know how to use the fediverse. I feel like my marketing skills have grown after creating the character master of balls for videos.

This would be an easy expansion for us. I can use the same postgres instance. And market another technology.

What would you guys like to see on a twitter/gab like clone?

Even less censorship ? We could probably allow straight awful shit to be posted and not blacklist it seeing as it’s personal timeline content and users can block users.

Gab doesn’t fulfill my needs because its a walled off garden and it’s UI kinda sucks.

I don’t really trust other instances like free speech extremist. I don’t know if they will be here tomorrow.

What do you guys think?

Probably gonna do it anyways but I’m looking for input from users here to what they would actually use.

    I do like instagram. If not for fact checks and warnings. I could launch a pixilfed thingy. I dont like their tech stack at all though and this would fit nicely with wolfballs. Pleroma feels different enough to twitter to me. Iike actually a joy to use. no fact checks, no bull shit. Different UI’s. And you instantly get access to all the other fediverse users. It will just be a companion service and you will be able to see all your wolfballs post from their too. Some of the search features you are asking for probably already exist and i could write them if not that doesn’t sound hard.

      I have never used girly sites like pinterest and i instagram, but then i’ve never used twitter either, but it stands to reason that every successful platform paradigm needs an alternative/free version.

      It needs a catchy name, i don’t know what people would go for …“memetrucker” is too contentious, maybe just call it “pintagram” or “instarest” or something.
