It's interesting to see the balance of fail and success in this project/community in the small picture we seced in the big picture we fail, a recurring . How to care about this is something we don't think about much. Maybe this should be a part of our SocialHub Community Values, how can we embedded something like this, is it even possible.

Hamishcampbell,

We used to call this "netiquette" for the side and it existed in meany "spiky" tech projects but was never codified, maybe this might be a good problem to try and solve?

Remember people have been and are still being vile in their interactions with the needed alternative. Grab a shoal and compost this mess, please.

Our crew/friends are increasingly pushing pointless prat fights over alternatives to defend their obvious worshipping of the for the last 40 years. This "common sense" is going to take time and add a lot of mess to change/challenge.

We need to compost this mess.

20 years of selling us libertarian individualism to push aside collective support of the "revolutionary" which is when we last had left tech power.

For this 20 years we have had pushing as left tech, this is OBVIOUSLY a disaster we can't keep doing. Yes, let's not get into a prat fight, this is needed as a supplementary.

@dragonfly yep can do a group video if we can gather up an interesting group of people :)

When I call people insane, i actually mean this. Common sense is now the illness of 40 years of worshipping the , so they is little "sense" left.

This is a problem we need to work past urgently

How we fund our "commons" https://nbtalondon.co.uk/2023/08/02/crt-accountable-to-whom/ a look at our waterways

Let's look at the social and political ground the owners of our "new" social media stand on:

X (twitter) is far right
Threads (Facebook/Instagram) corporate right
Nostor Libertarian right

Mastodon centre left

That's it, we have no real left-wing social media, good to keep this in mind when supporting projects

Hamishcampbell,

@handle it's a clone of Reddit, which is a libertarian individualist codebase built to feed from our "communities". In this Lemmy etc are a good step away from the but not radical left project beyond this first needed step.

are projects building to stride away from the current mess.

If you are reading this, you enjoy the openness and decentralisation of Web 3.0.

On , let's fast-forward to the future.

Web 4.0 will blend virtual and real environments while boosting innovation, rich content and industrial applications.

To ensure everyone benefits from it, we will:

  • Shape global standards for open Web 4.0
  • Foster a European Web 4.0 industrial ecosystem
  • Boost access to trusted information
  • Support virtual public services

How? ➡ https://europa.eu/!hJrNc4

because of an open letter signed by 50 imprisioned women that was sent to us today by a family member for sharing...

i want to reflect further on how hard is to get messages trough

they wrote it by hand, then sent it to a contact i assume by letter, the i got an instagram message and got the pdf after and transcribed it. the news will be out soon, but i want to reflect on something else related to this

bc i want people to post their own content online in a way, i think people should be able to tell stories how they want to

i was thinking on what the best app may be overall and...

is really ok for posting content
but it doesnt allow for uploads :(((( at least, on mobile... but it has rss! and broader size limits than any fediverse instances i know about...

my thing is, why is it so hard to publish multimedia content online?

i know servers cost a lot, and thats why mastodon is so restricted with this.

but why cant we just post any kind of content? like sound, text, pdf archives, video, links and fotos is the basic. most social media allowo only one at a time. its so fristrating. especially trying to do grassroots journalism with activists. its impossible to get them to publish content in any way thats , has an rss feed and is readable by other . meaning, everyone is on facebook getting 1 like each. i cant sleep.

like this may seem non poetical but really, we dont solve the technical side then we are stuck forever in empty echo chambers

we need astral rss and federation to be able to even start to compete with major media. its on us to federate everything, no matter the cost. we need to reach people somehow, enter through their phones and get these messages through, and make them forget the tv.

i really like
https://vozesdedentro.noblogs.org

thei're a support group for people who have been jailed and help them get their letters through.

i've syndicated their blog to our own news portal, and its now being re-re-shared on anrachist federation which to me is already a really good situation. an example of how i think rss is really cool





Hamishcampbell,

@strypey @dragonfly yep this is the bases of the ten year project and its of shoots etc
