lpoutine, Victoria Watcher has just posted a new topic entitled "Northsocial.ca" in forum "Online Media". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- A group of alumni from the University of the Fraser Valley in British Columbia is launching a new Canadian social media platform they say will provide a "homegrown alternative to U.S.-dominated" sites. Co-founder and CEO of Northsocial.ca, Colin Schmidt, says in a news release that the goal is to provide a place for Canadians to communicate and connect without the influence of "big-tech algorithms that are out of our control." The release from the university says the platform is built with Canadian technology and private data is stored on Canadian servers. The website is live, with an app on the way, and they say they plan to add groups, a built-in marketplace and gaming features. https://www.timescolonist.com/national-news/group-from-chilliwack-bc-launches-canadian-social-media-platform-12120869 (https://www.timescolonist.com/national-news/group-from-chilliwack-bc-launches-canadian-social-media-platform-12120869) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The topic can be found here: https://vibrantvictoria.ca/forum/index.php?/topic/7951-northsocialca/?view=getnewpost You can unsubscribe at any time here: https://vibrantvictoria.ca/forum/index.php?/unsubscribe/Zm9ydW1zO2ZvcnVtczs0MzszNjI5OzM2Mjk7bGF1cmVuY2UucG91dGluZS52dnZ2QGJsb2dnZXIuY29t/ If you are not following any forums and wish to stop receiving notifications, uncheck the setting "Send me news and information" found in 'My Settings' under 'Notification Options'.
