What do you get if you combine #Myspace & #Bluesky? It's ##SkySpace! https://skyspace.me/?youronly.one Now can someone combine #Friendster & Bluesky next? Or, maybe, #Plurk & Bluesky?

Aww man. By the time #MySpace came around, I already had social network fatigue. #Sixdegrees, #Uboot, #FriendsReunited, High 5 (?) and my old sixth form friend pressuring me to sign up to #Friendster so I could connect with her uni mates (????)... after that I was done with social network sites and didn't care when MySpace came around. I probably would have liked it though, and had the most garish profile page.

I know it’s not the same thing, but @Fedicate’s idea of positive “endorsements” has stirred memories of Friendster testimonials

I did not “get” Friendster, but I used the hell of out it

Ha ha, social network, what a joke

But looking back, those Friendster testimonials I got were some of the most sincere, genuine, loving tributes I’ve ever received

Where does that happen now?

Here’s to projects promoting positivity 🥂

#Mastodon #Fediverse #Databases #Friendster

Learning for the first time tonite about #Friendica - it originally sounded like a misremembering of #Friendster, the 2003 #SocialMedia precursor to #Myspace, which, as an #InternetElder, forms part of my long lived experience online. Having been so happy with my #Mastodon & now my #Bluesky experience, it's cool to see the #Fediverse also has an option for both (AND #Tumblr & #WordPress) to be supported within Friendica. I'm not scared of the install either, so this might be a fun option for me.

There are, I think, only two ways to get the #Filipino all over the world to use less—if not leave—Facebook and Twitter:

1. We need a @plurkofficial UI and UX; and
2. A #Friendster like UI and UX (original Friendster) …

… for the #Fediverse and/or #ATmosphere ( #Bluesky ) networks.

With optional features like:
* Pages
* Videos and Shorts
* Games
* DM/PM
* Neat image gallery

I think #Streams #Hubzilla and/or #Friendica fit for those options. We'll just need it to have a UI and UX similar to the original Friendster. A highly customizable profile and allowing HTML use not only in profiles but in comments as well.

For Plurk-like, we just need Plurk itself to federate, seriously. @plurkofficial yuhoo, time to federate!

Once up and running, we can get traditional media and social media writers to report on it, so Filipinos everywhere will be aware.

Then again, the #Philippines media generally ignored and is ignoring the Fediverse, Mastodon, and Bluesky, it's why very few Filipinos are aware of it. And telcos only provide free and/or discounted access to Meta products, Twitter, and Viber.

Though, I think it still is possible even without local telco support.

What do you think? What can get Filipinos to use Facebook and Twitter less, and more Fediverse and/or ATmosphere?

#Friendster

Anybody want to join a "new" SM site? A guy bought the domain and set up a pretty tight website, though he wants to keep all the "nasty" stuff out of it, like what's posted on FB and Twitter and Redit and all the rest of the SM sites. Also no moderation policies or tools... yet. As of rn there are only a few hundred People on it. The dev has given us 50 invites to hand out.
