It's annoying when people are uptight about something that's merely pragmatic. They're talking about social networks people use and know about.

Including Diaspora, a network almost no one has ever heard about, would be completely counter intuitive. Diaspora simply isn't an alternative for the overwhelming majority of users of active social networks.

That's bunk, simply because people already use it and it is a functional alternative.
