@sindum from what I've seen so far today, this is a great idea. And great execution so far. You should put up a ko-fi and (eventually when you find the time) create governance around this project. It seems really really good. Similar to, but not at all like Friendica. Never managed to make Friendica work well, but this seems very promising. (Not their fault, probably too much legacy stuff in the project)

(Not their fault, probably too much legacy stuff in the project) Friendica is a fun and very powerful software (it's currently objectively the most powerful in the Fediverse), but its ergonomics make it difficult to use, and Hubzilla makes the user experience even more difficult. The only alternative on the horizon is Bonfire, but even that isn't exactly easy to master. Fedibook is currently little more than a concept, but it has a simple and very interesting interface. It also seems to natively manage groups, although I haven't tested them with federation yet. For this reason, I believe Fedibook is a very interesting project and one that deserves close attention. Congratulations to @sindum@mstdn.dk for his initiative!
