Hello folks

I don't think I'm the only one here who thinks the fediverse is a great technology that connects people all over the world via a robust decentralised network. This network encompasses the widest range of interest groups and the most diverse ways of interacting with each other. Whether forum, video or image platform, whether books or music network, everything is part of one big whole.

Despite this diversity of possibilities, I personally still miss some services that I would like to share with you.

dating apps - A decentralised, open source dating platform on which you can join instances according to interest groups or sexual preferences.
git hosting - A platform where you can host your git repos and collaborate on software projects across instances. (Forgejo is already working on it)
networking and personal profilation platform - A LinkedIn-like platform with instances by industry, interest or region where you can network, present yourself or exchange know-how.
crowdfunding and membership platform - A mixture of Patreon and Kickstarter where you can share your own content according to different support levels and crowdfund projects.
event, group organisation and community participation - A platform on which you can join groups like on Meetup and organise meetings but also internal group interactions like on slack or launch and support civic initiatives like on Decidim.

What do you think of this? What services do you still miss on the Fediverse?

What part of what I wrote do you not understand? Because it's painfully clear you are completely mistaken about how Federation works or what it is. I've already explained the differences to you, but you don't seem to be able to grasp them. So where is the failure of communication here? Which parts are you having trouble with?

Decentralization does not mean that one part of the network can’t go down but the network itself will survive it.

What does this sentence even mean. It's just word salad and looks like you are throwing out buzzwords you've heard somewhere but don't know what they actually mean contextually.
