Another note (updated thanks to detailed explanations in a reply by @clacke): I previously left out Diaspora from this thread because it doesn't directly federate with the social networks I mentioned, but it does, partially. Thanks to common elements in Diaspora and StatusNet software stacks, users of Identi.ca, and StatusNet and GNU social instances, can see posts from Diaspora users. However, the differences mean that Diaspora users can't see their posts, and replies do not work.

@f00fc7c8@kind.social GNU FM is summer 2009, GNU social later that year, using StatusNet code is 2011 and merged project with Free&Social in 2012? There was also a moment when some OTHER project tried to claim the name GNU social and that was after I left the FSF in June 2012.

@f00fc7c8@kind.social also worth putting it into context that GNU social was focusing on a Facebook replacement. All the typical Facebook stuff like Events etc.
