Happy #GlobalSwitchDay

Good to hear. Just yesterday I decided to remove my LinkedIn account!

[souroak@lemmy.sdf.org]

Anyone on Loops? I tried signing up a few days ago, but the sign up page wasn't working. Now the landing page says they aren't accepting new users.

sup is how I update my FreeBSD /usr/src tree! Twenty years ago.

Matrix is federated, Signal is not.

[prodigalfrog@slrpnk.net]

XMPP is an established federated messaging app with encryption.

[jerkface@lemmy.ca]

I miss Jabber so much. There was a brief time where my one XMPP client and an easy to install server could let me chat with everyone I knew, whether they were on ICQ, Y!, gchat, MSN, IRC, or AIM. We fucking HAD interoperability.

There isn't much information about "Sup", but if I had to guess it could be that dansup is making sup app with XMPP(rotocol) as the messaging protocol.

[biggerbogboy@sh.itjust.works]

although it is federated, it isn't apart of the fediverse, as it doesn't use activitypub.

[pennomi@lemmy.world]

I’d argue it’s part of “the fediverse” but not “The Fediverse”.

[biggerbogboy@sh.itjust.works]

Fair point, definitely still apart of the same style of platform but not the same protocol.

[prodigalfrog@slrpnk.net]

That would be rad if true ^^

Yes finding the right instance on peertube is a nightmare — and also the general lack of quality content, or subtitling, which makes it as good as useless for deaf people like me.

[triflingtoad@sh.itjust.works]

I like the Lemmy one, but peertubes logo looks like it's gonna stab my eyeballs in my sleep

[lazycog@sopuli.xyz]

Let's hope so!

[cracks_inthewalls@sh.itjust.works]

Might be talking about the Bookwyrm client on F-Droid?

[pineapple_pizza@lemmy.dexlit.xyz]

A federated social fitness app(like Strava) would be cool

[victorz@lemmy.world]

Same with Sync, unfortunately.

[jaybone@lemmy.world]

The Lemmy logo always looks so sad or angry to me. Wished he could oook happier.

The only ones on the right I really like and signal and friendica. (I had never seen the friendica logo before. This is really well done whoever designed that. Good job.)

All the big guys of course can afford graphic design teams and marketing/PR research.

The notable exception for me is mastodon. While I’m still not a big fan of that logo either, it certainly looks better than the X logo. I’m guessing Musk DOGE’d his design teams in favor of some yes-men.

[loganninefingers@lemmy.ca]

I went back to check. This is correct. It's the un official one in f-droid.

My bad!

[davidagain@lemmy.world]

Absolutely, signal isn't federated, but I don't want my messaging app to be federated. I want my social media to be federated. Lemmy is good because it's open. Signal is good because it's shut.
