将 Discourse 用作社交媒体平台

This plugin could come in handy! :eyes:

Actually, @keegan seems like a guy who could really help us out with this project, don’t you think? :grinning:

The “In-feed ads” option would work extremely well with what we’re doing!

Oh, and along with that, this would probably serve us better than the “Top” view ever could.

Also, @Justin_Vega recently submitted a feature request to Pavilion that would be a perfect fit. Make sure to go vouch for his suggestion! :clap:

We should use the Discourse instance linked in this topic as a model. What do you think?

Here’s another gem I found. Sharing here for future reference! :blue_heart:

I simply couldn’t resist! :grin:

I’ve found another theme-component that would be perfect for us to use!

I have a gut feel about a core difference between topic/forums and systems like Facebook/Twitter/Instagram:

On forums the discussion is almost always led by an OP. The person with the most vested interest to gather insight and move the conversation forward. Much like in a face to face group conversation. With more than 38% of posts, the OP on this post has ensured this topic continues to live.

The key on social networks like Facebook and Twitter is to incent a much wider participation from a larger more random community. The OP rarely is part of a viral discussion. So on those networks the algorithm is tuned to bump up topics that have a much flatter long tail of responses. They are short, pithy and meant to be controversial to gain momentum.

And the other type of topics/posts gather literally zero response. They are mean to signal and gather a passive viewership without any real discourse. The huge majority of posts are like this I think. Facebook is an archive of virtue signalling and bragging.

Have you ever seen a viral discussion on Twitter? Eventually the OP plugs a product or some SoundCloud link. It’s like a meme to do that.

If you want to build a competing social network you’ll need to adopt this interaction mode somehow. It requires an algorithm to put a discussion in front of people who would rarely ever even bother looking at something. And making sure that many respond so that the OP can just eat popcorn and watch. This is social media’s best (and of course worst) feature - getting people to talk who normally don’t say anything. I call this a “forced discourse.”

And Instagram of course. Even LinkedIn! It’s insufferable and a huge turn-off from using those platforms.

I would agree that replicating this is not desirable.

I wonder if a “relevancy algorithm” plugin could be created?

2 个赞

Of course it could. But let’s start with identifying what would be the algorithm to identify relevancy to me on a particular forum.

  1. the semantic and meta data of content I liked, posted

  2. who I am connected to in the social graph

  3. items that have a large set of likes and responses

  4. more

Then what do you prioritize? Is it the same for everyone or shift based on other factors.

And the most important thing: is it any different than just me visiting and using my own head to select what to read and respond to based on my notification settings and basic browsing?

I’m not interested in tracking my users outside of my website.

As for the whole “do it yourself” idea, why wouldn’t you want the process to essentially be automated?

我从 @hellekin 那里听说 NLnet NGI0 资助以增加 Fediverse 联合支持的计划未能通过。这意味着你们会将计划搁置到下次公开征集,还是说联合支持本来就在你们 Discourse 插件的路线图中?

附注:我刚刚在 fediverse 上 发帖 询问 NGI0 是否这标志着方向的改变,因为一项关于联合 Gitea(已通过 forgefriends 开始联合实现)的资助也未获批准。

是的,可惜那个应用程序没有成功。我们仍在为此寻求资金,但这显然会带来延迟。

我认为 Hashnode 可能是我们正在寻找的一个很好的例子。它是一个博客网络,但其用户界面非常出色,对于那些长期关注这个话题的人来说可能会很有趣。

Discourse 发布了一篇非常好的博文,肯定能帮助我们识别社交媒体和 Discourse 之间的区别。如果我们想取得进一步进展,那么我们就需要“弥合差距”,找到合理的平衡点。

5 个赞

这是一个绝妙的后续! :grinning:

哦,另外,有人找到了一个很棒的用户可定制信息流视图的示例。解释得非常清楚。

这个话题提供了一些绝妙的建议,可以帮助我们在移动平台的方法上朝着正确的方向前进。

非常有见地,发人深省! :thinking:

这个 Theme component 结合 热门标签 将会彻底改变多信息流视图!

说到标签,如果有一个 Plugin 可以在用户输入帖子时推荐各种(相关的)标签,那就太棒了。这不仅非常适合社交媒体平台,还能鼓励用户更频繁地使用标签。这绝对值得研究!:mag_right:

将“主题”改为“帖子”和将“帖子”改为“回复”可能比最初想象的要困难得多…… :thinking:

我们还应该研究一下 Discourse 实例在不拖垮系统的情况下能处理多少标签。

我完全忘了小部件!如果可能的话,我们绝对应该利用它们。

这个主题中有很多关于 Discourse 信息流视图的讨论。我们应该从中吸取教训,避免某些陷阱。

你好 @merefield,想提前通知你,NGI zero 有一个新的 Open Call,已在 fediverse 上宣布,新闻稿在此:

如果能再次尝试,那就太好了。请注意,我之前提到的 Gitea 已获得资助,并且许多 FOSS 托管联合项目正在顺利进行,以开放和民主化代码托管,将其引入 Fediverse(谁知道呢,也许还能打破 Github 的主导地位)。


另请参阅之前的申请:

此项目已归档。由于某些原因,原计划的项目未能进行。此页面将作为占位符保留,出于透明度的原因,也希望能启发其他人继续这项工作。

有人最近创建了一个主题,我觉得值得在这里分享,因为它与整个“社交媒体”的讨论息息相关。

另外,尽管我最初的想法是,实际上有一种方法可以让用户直接从主信息流中与主题进行交互。尽管这是一个重大突破,但这个配套的#plugin 却不知怎么地被我忽略了!经过一些小的修改,它就能完美地满足我的需求。

到目前为止,这是我最喜欢的例子!
