      grindr in particular would be tricky! the location data has to be kept safe from bulk collection and targeting, but public for limited queries

      it also has to update fairly quickly

        Maybe base it on IP, it’s not like that sort of data is private either way, and gives you a general location I feel

          IP is still information you don’t want falling into just anyone’s hands… the issue is you don’t want a big list of people, locations, and “dating” metadata all gathered in a single place - ESPECIALLY if that information includes things like sexual orientation, and in the case of grindr, HIV status etc

    youtube would be a big one.

    big creators could run a bot which just uploads their videos on it.

    although monetization would be a difficult one, FOSS users aren’t fond of subscriptions. (at least that’s my impression)

    made even worse by the insane costs of video hosting/streaming.

    Pinterest, their recommendation algorithm is so good , and scary the more you learn about tech and how things can be used against you, it’s impossible to take advantage of that service without letting it learn more about you ( based on your saved pins and interactions ), it’s just how it works, and it works it’s just there’s no transparency or ethics involved, they sell your data

    So a FOSS alternative would be awesome, there’s Pinry but it’s self hosted

    Why would anyone want TikTok to be federated? The moment it gets federated, I’m fucking out of here.

      To have a federated alternative to Tik Tok. It’s that simple. I guess a bit deeper would be to peel users off of Tik Tok to have a more privacy respecting, decentralized alternative.

    Facebook. The part where I can share pictures of my kids withethe grandparents, without all the other things facebook does. The important part is if I don’t know you, then you can’t see the pictures as they are private.

    None. I’d like them all to stay away in their own walled gardens. If I want to interact with them, I will, otherwise they can go away.
