Maybe provide a link to where and a suggested alternative wording.

If you know that these things exist you should provide links to them, and suggest where you think "prominent" is on our site.

In any case, this list is meant to deal with promoting PostgreSQL itself, so maybe a better place to discuss this is pgsql-www, which is where the people maintaining the websites are paying more attention. regards -- Tomas Vondra http://www.2ndQuadrant.com PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services

Ummm, are you sure the best way to change things is to go to a mailing
list and insult people who may be genuinely confused about what exactly
you're proposing?
Ironic isn't it ?

Some examples:
https://fediverse.party/en/portal/servers
https://diasporafoundation.org
https://joinmastodon.org/
Postgresql home web page should have hyperlinks to official postgresql servers for these services.
So, next to the home page which shows:
https://twitter.com/postgresql
There should be:
https://postgresql.org/mastodon
https://postgresql.org/hubzilla
etc.
Of course, each community social media service should describe the postgreqsl configuration.
But I don't believe that there are official PostgreSQL servers for/on these platforms (and it seems difficult to know whether there are unofficial ones). We do have Slack and IRC setup and links to those are on the "Community" page.

As Magnus said[1] a bit earlier, there's already an in-progress item to implement language updates on pglister, but it's not a trivial change. Now that we're passed the PostgreSQL 13 release (which for who track things with the pgweb ecosystem, *a lot* of changes were added to help support the release ;) my guess is this will be handled in the not-too-distant future. Suffice to say, this is being addressed. Thanks, Jonathan [1] https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/CABUevEyS0_xFc-7ZaWKR%3Dd5h-HfvGEt%2BPhEP2Dpp5H7sTxY6Ug%40mail.gmail.com

Unofficial servers may be found via tags. Agree that's it's difficult to find within the fediverse (which is why the suggestionis made that official postgresql domains within the fediverse are created). Example public "tags" that refer to postgresql: https://mastodon.org.uk/tags/postgresql https://mastodon.social/tags/postgresql
