That is a sad, depressing joke. I hate this joke.
Anyways, on the positive side, this led me to think, we can contact FSF for support, even if it’s just moral support.

Newbie.
Groups and Events would be super-helpful in persuading folks to switch…
and, if I understand the architecture: portable accounts,
and, sorry, cross-posting to FB
I say this with humility, as my contribution here would be simply in
getting folks to switch… …(my other contribution: hosting a friend implementing
physical world off-the-grid-access-to-the-dWeb - and in the
middle of a food-forest, I hope … actually a 4.8 acres
little community up in the hills )
They’re both awaiting someone to step forward and take them on. Hopefully among the G+ influx there will be developers who want these features enough to work on them.
Account migration is being worked on. It is a super-complex feature and so has taken a long time, in testing as well as coding. Some of the current work can be seen here.
Facebook totally broke cross-posting from other services about a month ago. Before that, Diaspora had a working cross-posting feature, but under Facebook’s current policy it will be impossible for any other service to cross-post to Facebook. You can still cross-post to Twitter, Tumblr and WordPress from Diaspora, if you are on a pod whose admin has enabled those services.
I am unsure what purpose this thread serves these days. It attracts asking the same questions over and over again, and it renders basically every comment off-topic, as there is no clear topic. This isn’t really what discussions on Discourse should be, so I will close this, and ask people to…

on diaspora* to know what’s up.
