My mother told me to make Facebook. I tried explaining Facebook already existed, but it was no use.

You can run a Friendica instance and act like you invented it. My family was impressed when I "made my own Netflix" with a Plex server lol.

Moms don't know the Fediverse. Set up your own Twitter (Mastodon), Facebook (Friendica), Instagram (Pixelfed), stuff all of them behind some form of SSO to pretend it's all one common service.

You can still make Facebook, you just need to register it on a domain they haven't claimed. Then get sued and live in a box for the rest of your life while paying Zuck your bucks for trademark infringement.

I want you to just make a house! Well, obviously not a house like this brick house, but something like it..
