@J12t what would you hope to achieve using that proof?

@jenniferplusplus Many objectives. One obvious one: money. There are currently two not-for-profits out there (one I'm marginally involved in) attempting raise money for some activities that would undoubtedly be good for the Fediverse, from organizations that are in the business of funding things that are good for the world. They are asking, in so many words: you are saying all sorts of good things about the Fediverse, where is the evidence that what you say is true?

@J12t @jenniferplusplus I'm aware of Mastodon gGmbH and IFTAS, Inc β€” I'm not sure if Newsmast is a non-profit off top of head; There's probably others (I'm not sure who you're involved with Johannes?)

@J12t Ok, then we'll go up a level and ask the question again. What claims have you made? Who did you make them to? What mission or criteria would they follow for funding decisions?

This question just isn't answerable until you define good. Good for whom? Good in what way?

@jenniferplusplus You are misunderstanding. I have not made any claims. I'm only attempting to collect what might exist roughly on the subject. So I'm looking for pointers, although I suspect I will end up with an empty set.

@J12t
I'm obviously not in these conversations. I'm just going based on what you said, "They are asking, in so many words: you are saying all sorts of good things about the Fediverse, where is the evidence that what you say is true?"

Someone told someone else that the fediverse was good. Without knowing who any of these people are, or in what context this was said, the question is unanswerable.
