The first #Fedibook Security Review.

https://sindum.dk/fedibook-security-review-1/

The code is there for you to review and test

Come and try it out at the showcase instanse https://fedibook.net

Yes, Fedibook is heavily written with AI. That's a deliberate choice.

Big Tech will use it. Corporate business will use it. I'm scared about where this is heading — but I decided to learn to use it thoughtfully rather than look away.

My first rule: use AI to build non-AI tools. Don't embed AI in the product itself. The code is open source — real humans can take over. The exit is always there.

So I'm fighting fire with fire. Can we harvest the power of AI in open source without surrendering sovereignty? I think it's worth finding out.

My hope is for local models to step up — and I'm actively investigating how they might fit into Fedibook.

Today I have deployed showcase instance for #fedibook

https://fedibook.net which is an Instance deployed form the git code repo.

It is as I wrote a showcase instance - I invite you to join, test, play aground and use for not-so-important stuff. I will aim to push new releases a coupe of times a week and the goal is to be able to do so with non-destructive upgrades.

For anyone intrested in the process I wrote an article on my blog https://sindum.dk/fedibook-fighting-power-with-power/

@sindum Thanks for taking the initiative to create a focused and simple solution for groups in the fediverse. Looks good, too!
Once you have a prototype you're happy with, what's the plan forward? Will you still use AI for development? Will you keep the current codebase, or start from scratch?

Would you like to test your own #Fedibook instance?

Don't expect to much - but if you like to play along then have a go

https://codeberg.org/sindum/fedibook

Comments on features, functionality, how to install and general architecture is welcome. Low level code feedback is to early - I'm still prototyping and moving fast.

I would REALLY like to have your instance in a group chat 🙂

I need your feedback

As some of you may have noticed, I'm building a new fediverse / social media platform — #fedibook. The goal is a familiar look and feel, but one that's actually better for your mental health.

I accidentally included likes in the UI without really thinking it through. Not finished or properly tested — and honestly, I'm now wondering whether likes should exist at all.

What I'm considering instead: likes as a private bookmark only. More like a personal favourite — something you save for yourself to find later, but which is never shared with the author or the rest of the #fediverse.

Good idea? And what should they be called? Vote or comments - Thanks.

You are also invited to just the dev server at https://dev1.fedibook.dk follow the development process at first hand.
