Fediverse Futures
Social Media Reimagined
This is a companion to Fediverse Futures on Social Coding to elaborate the Fediverse from high-level, non-technical perspectives, brainstorming our visions and dreams.
We need a more holistic approach to fedi development and evolution. We need product designers, graphics artists, UX / UI / Interaction designers, futurists and visionaries to join the dev folks. Everyone is encouraged to join here and enrich our views on what Fediverse can be with diverse and different viewpoints, and to stimulate brainstorming, creativity, thinking out-of-the-box and crazy, wild ideas.
Some guidelines
- Choose a descriptive title that speaks for itself.
- Be substantive in your comments and stay on-topic.
- Treat others as you want to be treated, respectful.
- Don't be overly critical, we are just brainstorming.
Please read the Social Coding Community Participation Guidelines for more information.

Dating-like apps come up in fedi discussions quite often. They have interesting aspects, for instance where obviously privacy is a big concern and where current generation of federated apps aren't adequate for dating. And how do communities / instances establish their trustworthiness? There are kinds of 'dating' were the requirements can be less severe. Like "Meet new Friends" kind of services where e.g. you seek folks for collaborative gameplay in some MMORPG or something.
This is interesting, I struggle to see how/why it makes sense as a federated service. What does the person hosting the instance get out of it once they've found a partner? Seems like an open source dating app would be better suited to a p2p implementation.
