The question was actually directed as two questions, but the main question is: are there platforms that are similar to Facebook with fediverse?
I was just unclear. Hehe.
private ≠ secure
I recommend you to do promo on famous social media platforms or no promotion at all.
Unless you can get the majority of your customer base on decentralized social media platforms, you’ll have to live with having to maintain a presence on both sides. Now if you’re asking how to run your business more securely on centralized platforms, general advice would be:
- Use a separate account to manage your business page. Don’t use your personal account or email.
- Logon to your business account on a desktop browser with uBO in a container tab. Know that you will be limited on some features (i.e. no reels/shorts on desktop).

Thanks!
Without knowing any information about this, the hachyderm instance is one which would host such a thing. They're tech focused, and well organised with a co-op umbrella organisation running the instance that has pretty clear rules and ideas around how incorporated entities can engage and join it. So it'll be interesting to see where this goes.
You can only do so much to secure your account. Everything else is in the hands of the developers. I’m not really understanding.
Can you specifically say what your end goal is and what you want to avoid?
You mention privacy concerns, then population problems, but then ask about security - just looking for something more concrete ig would help me help you
