Pardon my ignorance, please but what is friendica? I've not heard of it before.

Sorta like Facebook, but federated with activitypub, so it can interact with mastodon and Lemmy a bit.

This blog post does a better job of explaining it.

@ProdigalFrog @harrys_balzac I totally agree with this, I have a feeling more people coming from #facebook would greatly prefer #friendica...marketing is everything. That and a polished mobile app ... And cross platform:)

@lps In my opinion, from the fediverse point of view, the really interesting thing about Raccoon is that, since it is compatible with mastodon, it manages to give even Mastodon users the pleasure of using Activitypub groups, whether they are Lemmy communities, Magazines Mbin, Friendica groups or gup.pe.

Mastodon's design in fact penalizes users of groups, but this app solves the problem for Mastodon users too
