Consumerium analysis work in progress on social media
We can divide the various social media by type. Most obvious is profit vs. nonprofit which we will use here.
Free social media
Consumium free social quartet
Consumium free social as of 2016 hosts 4 free social media:
- https://d.consumium.org diaspora* since July 2013. See diaspora* listing for more alternative instances
- https://friendica.consumium.org Friendica since 2016
- https://hub.consumium.org Hubzilla since 2016
- https://social.consumerium.org GNU social since 2016
Additionally there is a GNU MediaGoblin media hosting instance at https://media.consumium.org. Interesting to see when this will actually take off.
Hubzilla
- Hubzilla (.org) is a very nice free social media where membership is to the entire network, not only to an instance.
diaspora*
Friendica
- Friendica (.com) is the least steep and long learning curve free social media alternative to Facebook.
- The Friendica Directory is a place where you can find instances by location, groups, interesting tags and quite naturally people on the network
GNU social
