It could have several even as many as 100 different people with part of the key to access the center point for the passports so that any decisions would have to be unanimous and would keep things purely being monitored for technological updates.
Ideally on a platform similar to Gmail in its decentralized nature but connected to the fediverse and accessable through the main fediverse website as well.
We could allow for duplicate username with a unique 10 digit code identifier allowing you to adjust your privacy settings for each platform.
No. There is no particular reason why there needs to be one (say) twitter alternative.
Having multiple versons of the same type of platform artificially divides the Fediverse and makes it more likely that they'll split along ideological lines
Heck, there is not even a reason why there should be a alternative. Fediverse is allowed to be their own things.
While it would be awesome if we could figureout unique formats of social media, everything has basically been done, Myspace, Facebook and Linkton are the format of keep up with your friends.
Twitter and BlueSky are the basic format for literally "see whats trending"
Reddit and Lemmy are the basic format of Curated Community Content.
Youtube is the basic video sharing platform.
Tiktok algorithmic video sharing and platform which actually improves on youtube.
It would be really hard to fine a way to make a truly unique social media site but would be awesome
When I say centralization I don't mean letting a few control the many. This is what I mean.
Figure out what the alternatives are for these sites we don't need several Twitter alternatives.
Each site needs a front page, Accessible on the Fediverse front page. This allows people to easily make an account.
There should be one main site which will be the largest instance, people can edit the UI to feel how they like, but we need to allow communities to grow big.
To safe guard against point 3, fund the sites with 100s or thousands of co-equal owners. Say you get 5K people donating $5 a week to each site, they each get 1 stock or piece of the "company" and now it prevents a reddit or twitter situation.
The final thing, we need Fediverse user accounts, where once you make an account on 1 site you are automatically signed up to all of them and anyone can follow/subscribe and follow on all platforms, leading to a more cohesive biome
