There are several interesting things about this.

1. WordPerfect‽

I last personally encountered WordPerfect in the early 1990s, when a marketing bod assured me that WordPerfect users never wanted to see the desktops of their graphical operating systems, so there was no reason to integrate with them. For me, it was not unexpected that I never heard of it again, except in nostalgic discussions of the 1980s. Until today.

It turns out that the boycotting U.S.A. movement missed the spot when it was both Canadian-owned and Canadian-made by some years. I myself am just amazed that it still exists, and equally amazed to find under the #WordPerfect hash-tag on the FediVerse someone posting a picture of a shop selling WordPerfect off the shelf, in boxes, in 2026.

1. Social media

It's interesting that https://Mstdn.CA , owned by Canadians, moderated by Canadians, hosted in Canada, does not get a mention. GuardTheLeaf promotes Hey.Cafe as well, but it is not a federated site.

1. Maps

Today's news about Apple Maps (9 Hacker News submissions already) has already hit this list, it appears; with several things listed as alternatives to Apple Maps. So it's up to date at the time of launch. The question is whether the list as a whole will be kept up to date, or be added to, as events unfold. And as noted, there are prominent omissions.
