You guys need to talk to each other @michaelgraaf @rooftopaxx @nedhamson as this space is culture

Hamishcampbell, to UX

the has been a lot of clear communication on the sustainability. I think the tools for this are bad, this is a dev issue.

You can outreach this link to build suitability https://opencollective.com/open-media-network

A reminder this instance will have to shut down due to lack of funding soon #modteam

We need your feedback on this.

Hamishcampbell,

@rooftopaxx @nedhamson the is no shutdown date yet, we are still consulting but as you say I don't think this instance has the focus or community to stay online.

Hamishcampbell,

@nedhamson you can donate here https://opencollective.com/open-media-network to help cover some of keeping this instance online for the last year.

If we close down will post how to migrate help pages

Hamishcampbell,

@rooftopaxx we have been running these instances for admin and mod for the projects rather than the power for social change, as you say the instance community failed a year or more ago.

We now face a funding crunch due to none of the funding applications going through for the tech projects... so it's supporting community or closer

I get confused with the mess people push over my views. I am a seruse guy, addressing fundamental issues that are the change and challenge, we all agree are needed in tech to address social and environmental issues,

Have been doing this at the VERY sharp face of conflict for 40 years. Please look at the hundreds of films I made on this subject, thanks.

Where do people get the idea, what am talking about is not seruseus? This is a hard-to-understand view people push, am trying in good faith to address.

Hope this helps, so we can move past this mess making, thanks.

Hamishcampbell,

Hope people can see where the hashtag comes from :)

In the UK you can see socialism slowly creeping back after 40 years of worshiping the of neoliberlism. The is now no choices but to move away, nice to see tiny steps at last.

You’re also drawing attention to the very hard idea of “diversity of tactics” – using different tools in different settings.

It’s a miracle when the two sides can hold this bridge in place, the effect of this miracle is more powerful outcome for both agenders BUT the longer this bridge is held in place the stronger the internal and outside forces push to demolish it – it falls, have never seen a bridge hold for the whole campaign.

You’re bringing in the idea of “fluffy” and “spiky”. And you think both have merit.

Have been working with bridging this often hostile divide for more than 30 years in hundreds of campaigns on the ground and online. The best outcome you can hope for is “diversity of tactics/strategy”

On the subject of the current reboot please don't just keep copying is a first step, at the we have projects that groups of people have been working on for the last ten years and are all stuck on dev stage for last year or so. To try and unstick this, we have 3 funding applications for for the in.

We need help with funding outreach, like the idea of passing the instance on to a new team?

If we can't find more support we are going to be thinking about shutting down all instances as the is currently no money to pay the hosting, and outreaching is not working without a LOT of help.

The coding project is not working anyway, the has been no movement beyond chatter on the tech side of for the last few years, and the stuff was set up to seed this dev.

We made it to the opening of "radical landscapes" with Thalia Campbell to sit next to her banner.

Hamishcampbell,

@rooftopaxx yep it is, we took Thalia to hang with the London arty crew and the old feminists :)

Hamishcampbell,

@rooftopaxx we are going to be thinking about shutting down all instances as the is currently no money to pay the hosting, and outreaching is not working without a LOT of help.

The coding project is not actually working anyway, the has been no movement beyond chatter on the tech side of for the last few years, and the stuff was set up to seed this dev.

Any ideas for a good path, happy to pass the instances on to a new responsible crew.

Hamishcampbell,

@rooftopaxx no timing yet, just a heads-up, will be a full month notice on the actually shut down, but will try more outreach first, and like the idea of passing the instance on to a new team?

Hamishcampbell,

@rooftopaxx the problem is the is nothing kollectiva as well, its a problem with the coding of this reboot, its fading as it goes this is not a surprise thus the thinking about shutting down, only have so much focus.

Hamishcampbell,

@msaunders @rooftopaxx

Agree, this is the we have 3 funding applications in for this lets pray it works its way past the funding of alt tech.

Hamishcampbell,

@msaunders am stealing that text, its good :)

bitcoin is the community points for the nostr

🫡🧡💜🤙🏼

Hamishcampbell,

@c060b31fe2bbb0be4d393bc7c40a80@mostr.pub

Then the project is going to fail as the bitcoin lot is a very dysfunctional community to base a project from. This would be bad as the tech itself is OK

Interesting "Communist" view of the history of Zionism. With anything by "official" communism the content is interesting, the conclusion and path to action is generally the path we should not take, so please be critical of this part of any of these podcasts

They've reportedly fired half of the staff at , that sucks absolute ass.

Do not, my friends, become addicted to VC money, for it will forever leave you open to being fucked over either by them directly or by whomever you get bought out by.
