@leo No, I have no interest in curating a community. I’d love to see federation/decentralisation at the scale of one. Where the community becomes the social graph between the instances :) + @aral @Gargron

@stefanieschulte Oh yes, I keep forgetting it’s @Gargron +@aral

Hmm, doesn’t look like my personal instance is entirely working (seeing log output on follow requests, etc., but the interface is empty). Will look into it.

Just set up my personal Mastodon at https://mastodon.ar.al/

Follow me there:

You can mention me there using @aral

When/if you can, I would highly urge you to set up your own Mastodon instance. Currently requires tech knowledge/isn’t seamless (and getting it there will be a big challenge) but this is a great start and a very good step in the right direction.

Lots of love to @eugen and the dev team :)

@y UI: the controls & feedback mechanisms that comprise the interface between you and a thing.

UX: the experience you have with a thing. Includes interface but also everything from the moment you hear about it to when/how you stop using it.

The "u" is superfluous & we don't use it in Ethical Design (https://ind.ie/ethical-design) – hence: interface & experience design (or just “design”.)

@Gargron You are a gem. Thank you so much. I'll update the sample apps/docs in Set to use it and then write something up to try and spread the word to tutorial writers/trainers/etc.

(Hello from a slightly less early 6AM start in Sofia) :)

@ZackF (cont.) I wonder if “healthy” (e.g., does not addict, etc.) should be included in the list of attributes that an ethically-designed product should have under the human rights section or whether it needs to be broken down into more specific/explicit aspects to be of more practical use and possibly split between the rights/effort/perhaps even experience sections (e.g., “non-addictive” spans all three).

Will continue to think about it… Thanks again :)

@ZackF Hey Zack, thanks. Interesting point on health: my initial thought is that health-related considerations are covered by the respect for human rights and human effort categories – can you think of any examples where this isn't the case? Would you see respect for health as a separate causal category that doesn't overlap the others or would you see being healthy/not unhealthy as a cross-cutting symptom of an ethically-designed product?

Ethical Design Manifesto

Respect:

• Human rights
• Human effort
• Human experience

@Gargron * people ;)

(Twitter and Facebook have users – the term used by Silicon Valley and drug dealers to describe the people they addict to their products and exploit. We have *people* / members.) :)

PS. Congratulations; it is incredible indeed :)

@piecritic Sounds awesome, Brendan. Can't wait to play with it :)

@piecritic 👍

@piecritic That's awesome, thanks :)

@piecritic That would be great to have :)
