    @alyaza seems like this is no longer a fantasy.

    It will be a huge blow to the world if America basically splits apart, with shockwaves going all around the planet.

    I do not think that the states will hold their place on the global rank though. Most of the states economy is aided specially because of the fact that they are a part of the same federation. The fact that the “states” are basically just provinces of the same country and you can travel without internal border checks. Otherwise, in a scenario where states are going to be real countries, companies would also need a presence in each of the said state. And this is not something most will be likely to do, hurting the states economy in the process.

    And this is just the tip of the iceberg!

    I did not receive your response in time, that’s why I edited my previous comment. Sorry about that.

    Imo, I’m more concerned about Facebook’s data hoarding practices and its future moderation practices than whether it has a public feed or not. LinkedIn and VK (probably G+ either, can’t remember) - other two social networks that are more similar to Facebook in UI - do not have publicly accessible feeds either on their home pages, yet they still managed to get plenty of users. Probably no longer still relevant, but diaspora is also featured as the 1st alternative to Facebook. Yet if you go to any diaspora server, say diaspora-fr.org/, there’s no way to access a public feed either.

    Some Friendica servers (probably some Mastodon servers too) are also actively blocking their local feeds from unlogged users, so that’s also an aspect to keep in mind.

    I understand that for some people (I simply don’t care that much about this aspect, but I understand you do), the lack of a public feed might be an impediment, but I think it’s way less harmful than other things that Meta does to its users.

    It is a Facebook alternative, after all. But now that you’re speaking, I think it would work if a link to the community page would be visible straight from the login page. You can still see the public feed as of speaking, but you have to go to instance.address/community to see it.

    Edit: seems like this is not a universal issue with Friendica, but rather just something to add to the Frio theme which is the default for the majority of the instances. For example, where the Vier theme is used by default, there is a community button available: social.outsourcedmath.com/ is one example.

    Hopefully someone does a more modern theme that has this button too.
