@joel @feditips The best ones to ask for this are the Japanese Fediverse users. They probably know a free DB to use as a starting point, and if there is none, they're the best ones to start an open DB.However, I think it's best to make it: "Asian animation and comics" so it includes manhwa and Korean anime. There are also a lot of good ones from mainland China and the diaspora. (And my own, the Philippines.)

#ActivityPub is to #Linux#Fediverse network is to Linux users/communitySoftware which implemented ActivityPub is to Linux distros. Examples:- Mastodon is to Ubuntu- Pleroma is to Debian- MissKey is to Linux Mint- Friendica is to Pop_OSYou don't stop using a refrigerator because the brand you bought broke down immediately. You find a new brand.It's the same with Linux and the Fediverse.

Another thing people are forgetting: when you first joined Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram, you never had followers. You built it by (1) learning the platform; (2) using it; (3) interacting; and (4) building connections.Same process in the #Fediverse network. It's not magic. 😉

#Suggestion: Point #TwitterMigration to the Fediverse so not everyone is flocking to a Mastodon instance.You see, the network is the #Fediverse, the underlying tech is #ActivityPub (which is a #WebStandard).Mastodon is, but one of many flavours connected to the Fediverse network. There is no “Mastodon network” or "Pleroma network” or “MissKey network”, they are all “Fediverse network”.Promote the Fediverse. That is what who we are.

@eloraraymond Aye.(1/n) What's happening currently is everyone who wants to move away from Twitter are searching for Mastodon because it is what they see, what is talked about, and what's being suggested.The truth is, Mastodon is only one software (or platform) for what is inaccurately called "Mastodon network". The network is called "Fediverse".The underlying technology in Mastodon is #ActivityPub. ActivityPub is the #WebStandard that guides software developers on how to interconnect.

@eloraraymond (2/n) That said, there are other software using ActivityPub, such as, but not limited to, #Pleroma and #MissKey. They are connected to the same network Mastodon is connected to… the #Fediverse network.The incorrectly called "Mastodon network" is not about Mastodon, rather it is about the Fediverse.Unfortunately, many are using Mastodon instead of Fediverse in Twitter-land. Nothing wrong with that, but there are disadvantages, if we can call it that.

@eloraraymond (6/n) If users were directed to "Fediverse" instead of "Mastodon", it could've:1. Spread out mass migration to more servers.2. Those who left thinking "that's it ?" or "This is not for me", probably would've discovered they like the other software/platform, and stayed, and gave good word for the Fediverse network.3. Those who'll never use Mastodon anyway would've saved time if they found the other options in the first place. (And saved admins from a growing database.)

@eloraraymond (3/n) Now, People are searching only for "Mastodon". 70,000 people created accounts on various Mastodon servers (primariry those with "mastodon" in their domain names; and especially mastodon.social -- the flagship server).This led to the following:1. Overwhelmed Mastodon servers.1.a. People will think "Mastodon", and the "Fediverse" itself, is not capable of handling the load.1.b. There is only one server.

@eloraraymond (5/n) 3. There are those who'll never stay with any Mastodon-powered server because they prefer another software/platform.3.a. They created an account in various Mastodon-powered servers, only to abandon it later, because they like Pleroma, MissKey, or Friendica better.

@eloraraymond (4/n) 2. There are those who doesn't like the UI/UX.2.a. They leave. Share their experience elsewhere. It not only affects Mastodon, the software, but the entire Fediverse network.2.b. They leave without being aware that there are other options like Pleroma and MissKey.(aside: Personally, Pleroma is more like Twitter in UI and UX.)

@pthenq1 Of course, devs will promote their own. I'm referring to us regular users. While some have chosen their preferred platform, there are those who are more about the protocol than the platform but haven't realized Mastodon is only one of many platforms for the ActivityPub protocol (or Fediverse network).Devs are excused, especially the founding devs. But us users, this is how we can help. 😉

@agnew_hawk @rysiek And did you know that #Web3 / Web3.0 was first coined and used to refer to a Federated Social Web? It was never about blockchains and coins. For whatever it's worth, the latter simply joined an existing advocacy to take back the web.

#DidYouKnow? The #Fediverse (technical: #ActivityPub) is not the only #protocol with #federation.One such, and is the oldest, is #XMPP (formerly known as #Jabber protocol).— If the Fediverse is for the #SocialWeb; XMPP is for messaging and presence.— It has been around since 1999, and is developed at the #IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force). Yes, it's not a hobby!— It is a #privacy -focused #InstantMessengerWant to learn more? Visit the official website: https://xmpp.org

@feld Even #Misskey dropped their flagship instance a few years back.It was taking too much of their time instead of concentrating on developing their software.@lain
