I use FB because my family is on their.

My feed is almost entirely not my family, but “suggested” posts, and it made me realize I really hope something becomes popular to replace FB next and my family moves there.

What type of site do you hope becomes popular on the fediverse next?

    So imagine if you can sign in to one of the independent wiki and can edit/comment/link to copy on all federated pages.

    So there doesn’t need to be a Nintendo wiki, but a federation of Zelda/Mario/Kirby etc.

    (Yes I know Nintendo Independent Wiki Association is a thing, but it’ll be easier on them if they have software level federation.)

      this would be cool, but I could see it causing issues for places like Memory Alpha, which have a really strict and well-defined manual of style and acceptable references. I frequently see things on other wikis that you’d never see on Wookiepedia, Tardis Data Core, and/or Memory Alpha, like fanart embedded in articles, links to YouTube videos, incomplete drafts without proper tagging, etc.

      EDIT: Conversely I could really see it benefiting the smaller wikis, especially ones with lots of overlap with each other (all the various Marvel/DC wikis, the specific Clone Wars wiki separate from the main Star Wars one, etc)
