I thought I would mention a few alternatives other than Counter Social or Mastodon. [1]

Good morning, everyone!

I thought would write a short diary about other social media options. I see Twitter imploding with Elon Musk and his antics.

Let’s start with Fanbase!

Here's an article from the Root about Isaac Hayes III and Fanbase.

In 2018, Hayes III, a career songwriter, producer, and son of the legendary singer and songwriter, Isaac Hayes, noticed a kid from his hometown of Memphis who went viral for dancing in a Spider-Man costume to A-ha’s 1984 synth-pop hit, “Take on Me.” After receiving Hayes’ congrats, the young person asked him for advice on capitalizing on his newfound popularity. “From that conversation, I realized that this young man had no idea how to monetize his talent. Marvel and Disney own Spider-Man, so if they want to take it away, they can. But he should still be able to monetize his content and teach people how to dance,” Hayes said. And it was that conversation that inspired Hayes to launch Fanbase.

I thought I would embolden that part to emphasize the monetization of content .

I thought I would mention Christopher Bouzy and pre beta Bot Sentinel.

Here's the Tweet.

x I have some good news. We are now at 40,034 pre-beta registrations! 59,966 left to reach our goal. So if you want to share your thoughts on a different kind of platform, please pre-register here: https://t.co/n2VgQQaCMU



Also, we have a name and will make it public soon. pic.twitter.com/YASJhGE6T6 — Christopher Bouzy (@cbouzy) November 24, 2022

Please keep in mind both Isaac Hayes III and Christopher Bouzy are Black men.

Thank you for reading and enjoy your holiday weekend.
