  • BeReal

    I’d love to see a federated — or first of all just in any kind open source — version of this. I really love their approach of making social media less addictive, but they’re starting to introduce some features which I think are counterproductive to their initial concept.

    Since it is just a mobile-oriented product (for obvious reasons like needing two cameras, taking selfies, carrying it around the whole time) it might be hard to build something like that but I guess it would be nice.

    I also have no idea how you would make something like that federated, but the approach might be like that the different instances are working as the BeReal timezones, so the BeReal time might be the same for all members of an instance.

    Maybe someone is working on that, but I guess this will take some more years, because BeReal is not that popular for a long enough time…
