Index – National – Viktor Orbán confirmed

Christian, conservative, and right-wing views are also limited by Facebook to narrow their reach. I also have personal experience of this

– writes about the community side of the Minister of Justice.

So the Hungarian regulation is in a corner. The winner of the fight against Facebook could be Hundub, which promises users a censored social experience. Since the pro-government press first announced the launch of the Hungarian alternative, Hundub is seen by many as a kind of NER book.

Although the community platform doubled its number of users from 40,000 to 80,000 registered users compared to mid-December, Murmurati Limited, registered in the offshore paradise of Belize, has left the company, leaving only Csaba Pál, who sees the future of Hundub. in community. financing.

According to Csaba Pál, the investor’s exit does not mean the end of Hundub. Development of the social platform app, available on Android and iOS, is already underway, but donations from users are expected to be completed.

What is Hundub and what is missing from the community platform has been reported in detail above.

Such will be the Hundub of the future

The owner told Index that he wanted to strengthen Hundub with new design elements and new features, highlighting the live video feature among the plans. According to him, users can choose from various visual interfaces, which is currently only available with an old Facebook look in dark mode. Csaba Pál’s plans also include an interface that would help the blind and partially sighted to read.

I see potential in the Hungarian community platform as the numbers speak for themselves. In about five weeks we were able to move 80,000 people, which also surprised me. I’m sure hundreds of thousands of followers will be built in a few months.

According to Csaba Pál, Hundub’s biggest advantage over Facebook is that it takes care of users and their problems.

With the fact that we have a feature that allows you to contact the owner, users like it, just as we do not have a robot, but a real person dealing with a specific problem.

The other advantage is the non-censorship.

Just because someone describes their idea of ​​something, we don’t delete it. This is the other big push that they say is positive. Facebook is not that permissive.

Csaba Pál says he is not interested in politics. Therefore, it does not attach much importance to the fact that users from the right or the left register to a greater extent on the social site. He believes that transparency and consistency make them an attractive social platform, which is why he is better than Facebook.

According to others

According to independent opposition deputy Ákos Hadházy, the government, which regularly fights with Facebook, would replace Hundubra with the number one community site. Viktor Orbán also posted on the community platform. It is true that you may not like his side on Hundub, we can only mark the Prime Minister as a friend who, according to the Messenger function, was connected two weeks ago, but has already confirmed the author of these lines as a friend.

Judit Varga says that Facebook restricts access to its social networking site. According to him, global tech companies have so far only restricted freedom of opinion and expression, but the ideological campaign seen in America shows that people can even be excluded from the online space. Pan-European regulation is planned, but the Minister of Justice did not explain why the action against Facebook and Twitter became so urgent in Hungary.

Facebook has more than 5 million Hungarian users. A Hungarian politician cannot exist without a Facebook page, which is why Judit Varga is also forced to fight against Facebook’s business practices on Facebook. However, digital experts say that Facebook-like posts are already outdated and stylish among those under 25. They are more interested in Instagram, which treats users with a better visual experience and less information.
