"Roam the Wilderness of Autonomous Social Networks"

Requesting feedback for this as a title for a tour of the fediverse I am giving in September...

@rosano interesting to think about how in Germany bio means organic so "link in bio" has a totally different context

@liaizon Nice name. I think that'd work.

Would you like a suggestion for more wilderness-y, forest-y, hiking-y sounding options?

@bernat I just don't want it to sound technical...

I like the title. Though I consider "autonomous" be a tease and small barb towards traditional corporate non-social Social Media.

"Autonomous" is like automated, robotic in the visual image I get when hearing the title. But that's the fun there. Fedi is about autonomous people doing the things they love, and on their own free volition. No algorithmic steering and influencing there. So the exact opposite of that mental picture.

You could make that a theme in the presentation visuals.

I had a moment of confusion re "autonomous" - my first interpretation was to think you meant autonomous in a sci-fi "it's ALIVE!" kind of way, but then I realised you meant autonomous as in "self governed"

@smallcircles I come from anarchist roots where the word Autonomous is used a lot to mean governed collectively, though I wonder how it might come off to people from different places

@liaizon yes, I can see that, and also you are giving the presentation in an autonomous zone I saw/think.

For regular folks and also techies the connotation is different, I think.

But that is an opportunity for some wordplay around that 😃

@smallcircles the thing I am doing will be at @pankegallery in berlin which will definitely be around folks who are familiar with the social connotations of 'autonomous'
