It seems like the FOSS community is continuing to grow, and FOSS apps keep getting better (Immich reallh blew my mind recently), which is a big win 😎 but there are still many apps I use that I would kill for an open source alternative. I am curious what you guys think? Are there any apps you'd love alternatives for?

They want to use a single account for everything and have the most people possible.

That is it really. They don't want to have to make 50 new accounts where every account has to deal with getting past the spam policies and filters only to find that their potential base is 1/10 of that on other platforms

That's why reddit became the de-facto forum for many things also. 1 interface, 1 account, people can trace your account across different "forums" and it was searchable (on search engines, not shit reddit search).

There are currently a wave of people moving certain activities to Band of all fucking things (using it side by side with facebook due to facebook policies). It's basically a shitty korean clone of facebook but slower and with less stability and even less features.

They could have picked ANY of the platforms actually designed for the intended purpose. But Band? It's the OPPOSITE of useful.

People don't make sense.
