So, @kissane and I have formally kicked off our Fediverse research project! Briefly, we are doing interviews with admin/mod teams about governance models and practices that are in place on servers with ~150-2500 active users. More info is available here on the project blog:
The blog hosted at write.as which means you can follow it at @fediversalist@write.as, or via RSS, or via email (there's a form on the bottom of the main blog page).
The guy who told people that Jewish people were digging a hole under his apartment in #NYC because he could hear the Yiddish, and people thought he was being antisemitic; is the most vindicated man in history 😂
Hi fedi! @darius and I are digging into our governance research, and we have a great starter list of server admins to potentially talk to about governance and administration models and challenges, but very unofficially, I’d love to hear suggestions, too.
We’re looking at active servers ranging from ~100-2,500 users with some flex on either end of the range, and we’re building our list with an eye on structural, geographic, demographic (along multiple axes), and linguistic diversity.
I dunno two major commercial aviation items in the news this week, and not one fatality (from the commercial aircraft). Imagine if we applied this same safety regime to just about anything else …
