@msaunders am setting up a activertypub server for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainbow_Family to see how hippys get on the #openweb maybe a https://pleroma.site instance? more ideas aare good :)

@kaniini @bob I have been working in this area for more than 20 years and have seen hundreds of #openweb projects fail from takeing VC or NGO funding. I have not seen one seceased after swolling the poisen. if it is not #4open its heading for the trash, its just how the world is. Now ideas for non pixy dust funding are alwase worth hearing about, and will support :)

@bob @aral @kaniini that is so true, failbook grew from pushing the werst in human natrture - envey - its something we cannot use in #openweb projects.

@LWFlouisa @LPS it's like each instance 'votes' by making its own decision and blocking or not blocking. The aggregate of all those 'votes' determines how much of the fediverse any given instance can federate with. Nobody can stop an instance from existing, or publishing over the #OpenWeb and #ActivityPub. All they can decide is whether or not their instance is listening. #FreeSpeech is respected, but also #FreeAssociation, which necessarily includes a right to disassociate.

1) Looking back - how technology shaped the production and distribution of radical/progressive media like Undercurrents, Indymedia etc.
2) The current day - failure of radical media technology. The rise of the #dotcons and the new alt-media projects.
3) Looking forward - The activetypub meetup. This is an update on the state of current #openweb projects. A continuation of the very successful Mastodon meetups that I setup last year, opening up to the wider projects like Peertube etc.

@real_media welcome to a pice of the #openweb feel free to ask questions.

The underlying philosophy of this is likely weak. But the thinking is good https://medium.com/@shevski/how-decentralised-are-you-a6539eeb27ff #failbook #openweb

Well this is crap https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20180703/05375040163/copyright-industries-reveal-their-ultimate-goal-internet-where-everything-online-requires-license-them.shtml neo-liberalisam consumes everything. The #openweb will not last for ever... am starting to see its end.

If you need to find a place to call home on the #openweb you could start looking here https://fediverse.network/

@strypey @Shufei @david_ross

You are wriggling so as not to address what am saying :)

To be clear am saying we have (largely) been miss-sold privacy (as an absolute) by #encryptionists for the last 20 years or so , were it should have been sold as obscurity/mudding the waters etc.

This has lead to damaged to many #openweb projects by making them hard to use and incomprehensible.

#geekproblem

We need to be clear.

Why would I say and do all the #openweb stuff for the last 20 years if I did not think it mattered.

Trying to mix open and closed is not a simple thing.

The #geekproblem of complexity/obscurantism building tools for themselves not wider social groups.

The mainstream media lazy/careerist "journalism" on tech (and everything).

#fashernistas feeding lifestyle feeding media feeding society circle.

It's all a bit "suicidal"

Nice to see the #activitypub networks as a stepping away from this mess.

How to hold out a hand to help others take a step back to the #openweb

@bluestarfish yep the #fashernista world is narrowing with the dominance of #failbook generation and its #filterbubbles we do need to move on the reboot of the #openweb its up and down :)

The rebooting the #openweb is a opening space for creative sustainable tech. A move away from the pointless/dangerous/distructive #dotcons tech the #fashernistas have built the last 10 years. A opportunities to do/be something meaningful.

“Do you want to sell sugar water for the rest of your life, or do you want to come with me and change the world?”

No garrenty the quote ended up in the #dotcons so don't drink from the #fashernista fountain ;)

Take a step to the #4opens rebooting #openweb

Rediscovering the open web: #OpenWeb is trending right now. At least, I suspect it is. It’s kind of hard to accurately determine what’s trending on the open, decentralized web. And that’s a good thing.
