This infographic is still incomplete; I'm posting it here in the hope that I can get some feedback about it. It has three goals:
- To explain what federation is. No technobabble, just a simple analogy with houses and a neighbourhood.
- To explain why federation is good for users.
- [TODO] Specific info about the Fediverse, plus some really simple FAQ.
Criticism is welcome as long as constructive.
EDIT: OK, too much text. I'm clipping as much as I can.
The X icon looking a lot like a swastika… didn’t know if intentional or if others would pick up on that. Maybe sub for some other icon?
The similarity is totally a coincidence. Just like the one between a certain someone's "my heart to you!" gesture and a Nazi salute. /s
All three (the bot, the Nazi, the pig) represent problematic kinglets of social media, who may or may not correspond to RL people.
I'd like to order a high-quality PNG of that symbol, please. Preferably located in a central white circle on a red flag.
(no, really; I want that as an image macro, but I lack the skills to make it)
It looks like a great flag for X. Very suitable for its leftover userbase and owner. I bet they like strong colours.
[Grab it while hot, otherwise imgur might delete it as it doesn't know the context.]
