The new European social network open source is launched in March 2019 This social network may be an alternative to G+ https://www.openbook.social/en/home
France & Germany had a joint research project named Quaero with in the beginning had the goal to research novel search technologies, see en.wikipedia.org - Quaero - Wikipedia This started in 2008, changed its direction once or twice and was ended end of 2013.
Also in 2013, another European search engine launched named Qwant which has been in development since 2011 and which officially does not want to compete with Google (and with Axel Springer Digital Ventures having a 20% stake since 2014). We will see if this will get ready as a Leistungsschutzrecht friendly competitor.
Openbook is developed in Europe but welcomes users from anywhere in the world.
It'll be a modest beginning, but it looks like they are doing most everything right. I've signed up and chipped in. Will be interesting to see how it turns out.
Per Siden Cristian Motoiu Dankeschön für die Erklärung, es war etwas verwirrend für mich, oben zu lesen... Europäisches Netzwerk. ;) Ich hoffe sehr darauf, dass die kostenlose Version ein echter Ersatz für G+ wird! Ich wollte zwischenzeitlich das Friendica versuchen... Aber ich verstehe die Sache mit der Server Auswahl nicht. Ich habe ein kostenloses Flickr Konto und bin nach etwas Eingewöhnung sehr zufrieden damit, für Foto und Kunst aller Art. Aber mir fehlen dort die anderen Informationen, die ich hier auf G+ bisher hatte!! Also setze ich Hoffnung auf Openbook. :)

Signed up for a beta couple months ago and never received any e-mail from them. As I know it only works on mobile.
ReplyDeleteIst es nur für Europäer???
ReplyDeleteIst es nicht für den weltweiten Austausch???
Maybe, but it is still in development so can't take it for a test drive.
ReplyDeleteThe next status update with a date for the alpha release comes around the 15th february. You can support them on Indiegogo to get access to the alpha or wait sometime for the beta release.

Mobile only? That would be a non-starter for me
ReplyDeleteDoug Tyrrell Nope. Also desktop. Read the medium article I linked here :)

ReplyDeleteI do not know there are any restrictions
if it is created by Europeans it will no longer be fined like Google or FB :)))
Thanks for the info, I registered for the beta and got an email to verify my account.
