The most popular fediverse platforms are not American.

The most popular fediverse platforms are not American.

That's awesome. Together we're proving that a world of thriving alternatives exist beyond the USA.

We need to embrace that.

So I started https://MadeInCanada.social for my fellow Canadians.

Let's show the world how magical #ActivityPub is

@dansup@mastodon.social for the best part madeincanada.social hosted on Cloudflare

@dansup

are you the only canadian lead developer on the fediverse? if it's going to be about Canada, you should try and find out if there are other federated services with a large degree of canadian development

@dansup

Thanx for this post

@fribygda@fribygda.no no, I develop NodeBB, and am from Ontario.

@evan is Canadian as well.

@dansup Can't believe I'm pointing this out to a Canadian, but don't let the USA claim the name of your continent!
Pixelfed is American, but not from the USA.
And of course, I'm also falling into this trap from time to time...

@dansup I chuckled when reading that Canada is not America XD

@dansup my thought here is that the country of orgine here doesnt matter. If the better Open-source alternative is american ill use it. As long as the developer isnt some MAGA guy it should be fine

@kleisli i mean the app was made by a canadian and not by all american countries collaboration

@dansup You will need a french version for that.

@dansup I'm not going to join because I'm unfortunately in the USA. But bravo!

@dansup I don't see any way to join on the page

@3rdi@mastodon.social @stevejb@beige.party I don't think it is a social network, Dan just made a landing page showcasing (his) Canadian alternatives.
