I think it sets the tune for what we are trying to do.

@praveenarimbrathod Ah yes. Honored to be included. Will provide my opinion/vote where I think it will be useful.
Add Illya's quote about diaspora to front page
proposal by Pirate Praveen Closed Fri 15 Jan 2016 4:37AM
Majority of those responded agrees, but if Anish can suggest a text that he agrees with we can include that. If he cannot propose anything, may be by a week's time, we will go ahead with current quote.
https://poddery.com/posts/2214493 This beautifully explain why diaspora is better - healthy because transparent - we know what the site does, who does and how the costs are met.

Makes the distinction of diaspora with other social networks clear on the front page itself

I am sorry to say that quote doesn't make our mission clear. It doesn't have to be from anyone. Make a general statement that makes the mission clear. I don't have a suggestion, as of now.

A simple analogy with health that's easy to understand, plus we wouldn't be running a pod at all without Illya's work.

Because it is equally important to share the legacy.

We can explain how diaspora is transparent (diaspora is Free Software and anyone can inspect what the site does, also expenses are transparent too, ads/sponsorship without sharing personal info, user donations etc) so new people understand the difference.
