No, ime, it looks outdated. See every other comment in this thread for why that is.

It has all of them, but it’s bare bones and doesn’t scale well. The instance where I have an account regularly falls over - sometimes for months at a time. Most of my friends there haven’t returned.
I don’t feel it’s currently a viable Facebook alternative, and it would need monumental amounts of work for it to become one.

I had a browse of the code recently. It’s really well put together, I think they have a great foundation it just needs to be optimized. I’m hopeful about friendica.

Reay ? Isnt it the oldest Fediverse project?, i remember having a go a decade ago. I still have an account but it seems broken.

Yes if it’s that old if they was possible to fix it’s problems then surely they would have by now…

agree with the scaling issue. i tried an instance with 300 members and it was too slow to use,
