  Try taste.io, you cannot find users, but it will suggest you movies that people with similar tastes liked. Source: almost 2 years ago

• In-show bi- and homophobia?

  On a social website (taste.io) I read a comment complaining about ‘bi- and homophobia sprinkled throughout [Elementary]’. The site doesn’t allow to react to comments so I couldn’t ask the person, but their comment got me thinking and I would like to hear people’s opinion: Do you think the show has some problematic moments in regards to lgbt+ representation and if yes, can you provide concrete examples?

• How difficult would it be to build a recommender system for TV shows at scale?

  It's John from taste.io, I think it depends on the method you want to use and where you're able to retrieve data to train the model. With a short amount of time and limited resources, you won't have the luxury of creating a collaborative filtering model....content-filtering is possible if you can also be resourceful with APIs + build crawlers.

• How difficult would it be to build a recommender system for TV shows at scale?

  I have been asked to build a recommender system for TV shows at large scale, meaning thousands of users across the entire libraries of services like Netflix, Hulu and Amazon Prime.

  You might want to look into some of the Facebook-like open-source social networking programs like Friendica, Hubzilla, Libervia, or GNU Social. Source: 7 months ago

• We need a Facebook groups style decentralized alternative. Does one exist?

  I think that Friendi.ca is the fediverse equivalent of FB, in the same way that Mastodon is to twitter. https://friendi.ca. Source: about 1 year ago

• Looking for a “news aggregater”.

  In addition to what has been said, you can also use Friendica, another great decentralized alternative (server list). It supports RSS, along with being a regular social network. Source: about 1 year ago

• 📣 Apollo will close down on June 30th. Reddit’s recent decisions and actions have unfortunately made it impossible for Apollo to continue. Thank you so, so much for all the support over the years. ❤️

  Facebook being whatever it is would be friendi.ca. Source: about 1 year ago

• Open Source Social Network php based social networking software

  Given the similarity to FB, what's the advantage over Friendica or Hubzilla? Both support federation with other servers and can be run as a closed community too. Source: about 1 year ago
