Friendica is much closer to feature-completeness (but still far from it).
You are wrong, Diaspora development is quite active. And I like the community there. You can see current development proposals discussed here: https://www.loomio.org/groups/194

A pity they don't plan to develop TW3 for Linux so far. Even Linux support on GOG is lacking yet. GOG is a digital distribution service, and they are a subsidiary of CD Projekt Red. Their specialty is a hard stand on DRM free games.

Feel free to vote for it: http://www.gog.com/en/wishlist/site/...sions_of_games

Thanks for mentioning - even though I'm "old time" gog.com user While I agree and voted already, I must admit that lack of "official" support seems to be related to wine. It's super-easy to run 99% of gog.com games using it, including TW's. Maybe people saying "wine is slowing Linux down" are right after all, but meh.

But, it is off-topic here, so just a minor clarification and we're out of it - gog.com isn't subsidiary of CD-P RED, REDs are studio that is subsidiary of CD-P (which, in itself, is games distributor). In the same way, gog.com, indeed is subsidiary of CD-P (but not REDs).

That proposal isn't about Wine, but about selling native Linux games (like Humble Bundle does). But yeah, let's not go too far off-topic.

I am sure that the percentage of the Jolla potential customers on Diaspora is incomparably bigger than on other social networks.

About Jolla support open media like diaspora:

You do realise that diaspora API is not yet ready?

https://github.com/diaspora/diaspora/wiki/API-v1

However I think the mer community definitivly should take a look and make it work in nemo at first. The "social media plugin API" are the same used in sailfish AFAIK so its should not be that hard make it work on saifish too. But dont expect Jolla to prioritize this when diaspora API not even near to stable.

Btw. To start a flamewar, RubyOnRails sucks bigtime. I prefer web2py and DJango over RubyOnRails. What a shame diaspore using RoR

Yeah, Diaspora API is not ready yet, because they are in the process of changing their federation architecture.

I'm not too much into web development, but I think RubyOnRails is good in its own right. It's progressing and if some stuff there is inefficient - it can be fixed. Other than that, it's simply a matter of preference or familiarity with whatever language like Ruby or Python
