“#NathanSchneider has the patience and fortitude most of us lack. He’s identified a phenomenon he calls “#ImplicitFeudalism’ - the bias to build our online and real #communities as #fiefdoms, and how this has made us more tolerant of similarly autocratic CEOs and politicians. He’s even optimistic and energetic enough to see how the blockchain could be employed to distribute #governance in a more democratic fashion.”
@ntnsndr Finished reading Governable Spaces yesterday on a flight and it's really gotten me thinking about how I can contribute to making a more democratic Internet :)
While Mastodon is great, it is still subject to the same implicit feudalism mechanisms as other social media (unless you're on a server such as social.coop which builds consensus decision-making into their structure).
