The project is an initiative aimed at reviving the project, a decentralized grassroots media network that emerged in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The project was founded on the principles of open publishing, direct democracy, and anti-authoritarianism. This very powerful project was ripped apart from internal and external tensions and forces.

is a grassroots media project that aims to provide an alternative to mainstream media by creating and distributing independent video content. The project has been running for over ten years and is based on the principles of openness, collaboration, and decentralization. It uses open-source software and decentralized platforms to create and distribute activist video content.

The project is a decentralized network of media sites that share content and promote independent media not controlled by any single entity. The project emphasizes the importance of grassroots community-driven media, where people and groups can create and share their own news content. The goal of the project is to create a more equitable and just society by challenging the narrative and promoting independent media to do this.

In meany ways it is hopless talking to people who have grown up during the era as they have no way of understanding groups in a social sense, so they all communication from this modernist framework. You literally are not allowed to talk to them and will be blocked by their social media account.

This is VERY bad dogmatic behaver, we have to somehow compost. Ideas please?

A lot of energy is currently lost in people each other attempts to help.

And yes, sometimes this blocking is needed, but a lot of the time it is not helping.

TRUST can help mediate this for a better (or to put it bluntly, ANY) outcome, this is urgent.

Ideas please.

This is both a technical and a social movement - one thing is obvious we do have a culture to share, what this culture is comes from meany places.

Understanding the overlaps would be helpful, development () is likely a good first step on this path.

It’s good that people try not to push pointless tech projects… And the majority of new tech projects are obviously pointless. To get an idea of what to push do a review and publish this, let’s build a community of useful tech together. We need to do better.

The children of Thatcher and Reagan are limited in their world views – they have been brought up and nurtured in the neo-liberal and have limited experience in the nurturing and socialisation of anything else. Academic and book learning are a poor substitute for evolving in a non era, so it is no surprise that they find themselves trapped in the circle of

and the media are always a problem that is hard to do anything about. They shift the focus from the grassroots to themselves and tell stories because this is what the media wants to hear.

The undercurrents that are the story drifts back into the flow and nothing is understood, no change or challenge happens.

We are sold for someone's fragile egos' moment of feeling important.

The "protocol wars" on the such as , , and . That building bridges between these protocols can be a good solution, as it is a permissionless way to connect different protocols without needing to get the codebase to change their project. The protocols are all and native, which is a positive development. However, the cultures of these protocols are different and can create messiness in the discussions.

The "protocol wars" of new protocols, including , , and , am suggesting that bridges between them are a good solution to the current issues. All of these protocols are and native, which is a positive development. However, the cultures of these protocols are different and this can create messiness in the discussions.

I advocate for a grassroots culture and urge people to focus on building bridges rather than adding to the mess.

Looking at today it's all "signal to noise" mess, there is some signal, but this is washed over by waves of noise.

We are increasingly seeing the same mess come to our reboot spaces. What's the plan to push signal and reduce noise?

Some people may only value things that come from sources, which can be limiting and narrow-minded.

They all share tech, so this is a win.

Where they differ is in the "culture" they come from and push.

comes from surveillance capitalism, it's from the and has meany of the same assumptions, just "better".

comes from the and bro crew and suffers from being from this mess.
