Egalu is me and a couple other peoples idea conceived in a discord movie night. Egalu is going to be built on the activitypub protocol. It is meant to be an FOSS version of facebook, without data selling, transphobes, dickheads, and bot moderation. We expect the first version of this within 3 months (likely not this long, just ensuring we don’t get anyones hopes up with something like 3 days for the 1st version)

    Friendica is the most beautiful and powerful social media software in the Fediverse: it can make you write long, formatted posts with in-line images, with title or without title, it can publish scheduled posts, it can make you follow websites with RSS feeds , Diaspora and GNU Social profiles, it has a connector for Bluesky and TumbIr, it can manage circles like Google+, it can manage public ActivityPub groups (basically like Lemmy communities) but also private ones, it manages activitypub events like those of Mobilizon and Gancio. I will take a bigger look at it now.

      Very good. I’m glad I was able to spark your curiosity! 😅 Sometimes, good ideas can hide even behind the worst interfaces and the most obsolete technologies… 😁
