With so much hate all over Kenyan FB, it's amazing that Facebook "fact checkers" even have time to police and fact check internet memes. My FB account has been restricted for 90 DAYS for sharing the following memes in jest! NO APPEAL option. It's ridiculous to say the least! I know the "independent fact checkers" have to earn their bread but gimme a break 🤣🤣🤣 I suspect a Kenya politician's team not happy with my posts has probably paid the so called fact checkers. Anyway, we need our own social media platforms!

Probably a great opportunity to actually engage the Facebook team… just saying.. For me the fact there’s some sort of fact-checking going on is a move in the right direction.

Just yak-shaving here; but should someone in this list want to do so, check out: Spritely Goblins: <https://spritely.institute/static/papers/spritely-core.html>; it promises to improve the work on ActivityPub: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ActivityPub>. I wonder, what Kenyan social media platforms are out here? And in particular, one with a solid user-base. -- Munyoki Kilyungi D4F09EB110177E03C28E2FE1F5BBAE1E0392253F (hkp://keys.gnupg.net) Free Software Activist Humble GNU Emacs User | Bearer of scheme-y parens
