Criteria: * The platform must be somewhat popular or show potential to become somewhat popular. This is a somewhat arbitrary determination and not too much time is spent on research. * Easy sign-up. * Legal. Non-Criteria: * Networks respects privacy of its users. * Tor users are permitted to sign-up. * Anonymous sign-up permitted. * Other ethical or political considerations. * In an ideal world, "perfectly moral" decisions would be made but that is deemed impractical. For elaboration, see [[Warning#Unsubstantiated_Conclusions|unsubstantiated conclusions]]. In that case most major networks could not be used because most fail in one regard or another. Therefore no such attempt is being made. Reasons for account creation: * Reserving account name. * Censorship resistance. * Escaping (potential) shadow banning. * Decentralization, diversity. * Allowing users to choose their favorite network. Non-Reasons for account creation: * Endorsing that network. == Criteria for which Social Networks accounts are most actively used == Amended October 24, 2020. * Usability. The easier it is to (auto) post to these networks, i.e. post 1 time using an (external or third party such as IFTT) tool and then spread to multiple networks, the more likely this network is going to see more posting activity. * Depends on contributor time and availability to mirror posts to these networks. == Criteria for Footer Inclusion == Amended October 24, 2020. Criteria for (wiki) [[Template:footer|footer]] inclusion: * platforms self-hosted by {{project_name_short}} (discourse forums, newsletter, rss) * third party platforms: ** popular, generally active or followed by our user community regardless of whether based on Freedom Software or non-freedom software ** promising platforms that have the potential to grow or are in an expansion phase * experimentation * technical merit (decentralized and/or censorship-resistant) = End-to-End Encrypted Public Chat = Unavailable. * blocker: {{project_name_short}} matrix chat is bridged to {{project_name_short}} telegram chat. Meaning, any messages on matrix and telegram gets relays. (As long as the free relay bot service is functional.) Matrix channel encryption is incompatible with relaying to Telegram. * Other reasons: ** It's a public chat anyhow. Anyone can join telegram and view that chat history. ** No clear threat model. ** Lower maintenance effort. = See Also = * [[Project Chat]] = Footnotes = {{Footer}} [[Category:Documentation]]
