   Lets call this the #openweb for outreach lets not use terms like #indyweb #fediverse as outreach as they are inword looking sub-culture terms.

   We are a delightful mix of sub-cultures on here. But if this network is going to survive we need to outreach into more mainstream cultures. Sub-culture projects are #fashernista and another fashion will come along soon anufe...

   My though on the subject after seeing 100's of #openweb projects grow and die over the last 20 years.

      For people not already immersed in the subcultures of #FreeCulture or #FreeSoftware, the term #OpenWeb is not any more understandable than #IndyWeb or !Fediverse. But I agree that we should use a single term for consistency, so newcomers understand that all these things are part of the same movement, and #OpenWeb works for me.

            Talking about #rebooting the #openweb been trying to work with/away from the #geekproblem of overcomplexterty and #stupidindividualism build it from scratch/pointlessness. I have been trying to work building open projects agensts the flow of closed #incryptionists for 20 years. I can't express what a relief mastodon (activertypub) has been, it's a weight off my shoulders and a opportunity to put the pointless/draining last 10 years of tech behind us and move on. Am happy to press #reboot button.
