   @simsa0 Implementing something like gstools.org to gnu.io/social would fix that problem. Many social problems can be fixed with tech’s help ;)

     @mmn@social.umeahackerspace.se Quick question: is the FacebookBridge plugin supposed to work? I ask because I tried it for the first time in a long time last night on my GS instance and it did not send posts to FB. Maybe FB's recent API changes screwed this up? Anyway, let me know the state of this plugin.

     @steve I haven't been able to try it since I'm not a Facebook customer. If it works, it's only one-way (GS to Facebook).

     @steve I'd assume it is broken. I want to remove it for ideological purposes anyway. .)

     @draven @mmn @mmn@social.umeahackerspace.se No charging, but there are limits: https://developers.facebook.com/policy/ (points 6.10 & 6.11)

     @draven Yeah, but that's just if you're popular enough and have requests in the thousands (per hour or whatever it is). First taste is free you know, their API access lures you in and locks you up.

     @simsa0 @mmn Freedom of choice, for Q.se as well as for the users :)

     @simsa0 But the users have the freedom of choice regarding their preferences of node’s features.

     @simsa0 So in short: there should a comparison chart on gnu.io/social :)

     @simsa0 I see and understand, what you mean. But in this special case I think my solution would at least help a big step forward. It doesn’t solve the social issue of dependency of the admins though, but as a starting point it would be good to point new users to.

     @simsa0 gstools is curated automatically via a statistics plugin. So, this would be a reliable source.

     @simsa0 The plugin itself is activated simply by one line in the config.php (sadly the development source is down)
