  1. The #KISS #OMN path is about building practical, commons-based media tools now, not waiting for the perfect future.

    Much of the mess - and endless #blocking - comes from ownership and control. We can sidestep some of this by putting media infrastructure firmly in the commons under the #4opens.

    It won't fix #mainstreaming overnight, but it gives us space to build alternatives before the old systems catch up.

    If you have resources, fund development. If you're technical, code. If you know UX, design. If you make media, tell the story.

    This isn't theory. It's practical work for better social outcomes. Keep it simple. Keep it open. Build and use it.

  6. Media, the deathcult and climatechaos

    The current wave of wildfires across Europe is not simply a natural disaster, it is also exposing a deeper mess, the failure of our information systems. Instead of explaining why Europe is burning, significant sections of the corporate media are either ignoring #climatechaos or distracting by blaming rewilding, net-zero policies and environmental protections. Rather than confronting the #KISS scientific evidence that fossil fuel combustion is driving global heating, they redirect public anger […]

  11. A simple definition of the #geekproblem - the habit of treating the social side of technology as if it's outside technology.

    You can build perfect code, but if you ignore people, governance and trust, you've only built half a system.

    This creates strong #mainstreaming and acts as a #blocking force against working alternatives. It's time we started talking about the #geekproblem.

  16. The meme vs activism argument is the same #blocking - people mistaking the feeling of doing something for the doing of something. Sharing memes on #dotcons is easy, safe, and rewarded with dopamine. Building #openweb alternatives is boring, hard, and rewarded with almost nothing. That imbalance is not an accident, it's the business model that feeds the mess we are in.

  21. If you use #mainstreaming tools, you'll get #deathcult outcomes. That's not surprising, it's how systems reproduce themselves.

    The same is true of process. Using the same "common sense" approaches to create change simply reinforces the status quo. I call this #blocking.

    In tech, it becomes #techchurn. In culture, it's often amplified by the #fashionistas.

    If we want different outcomes, we need different tools and different processes. That's the path of #OMN and the #4opens. #openweb #KISS

    That's a block.

  41. If you need to know who's #Blocking you or who's blocking me, you can learn all of that on #Clearsky. I look to see how much the count has increased totally. I also look to see if there are ones I want to correct like accidental #Moderation things. Like following Vance! I've done that 2X somehow.😹😹😹

  42. There’s an idea on the “fluffy” left that we must be nice to bring people into social change. There’s an idea on the “spiky” left that we need to be sharp and confront power directly to be effective.

    Both contain truth. The balance is what matters. The clear failure is spending too much energy on the left fighting itself over this balance instead of focusing outward.

  47. "In-group vs out-group" game many #fashernistas play to feel a sense of control and belonging. Sometimes it's useful. Too often it becomes #blocking instead of building.

    On the #Fediverse, this tribalism creates more heat than light. The interesting question isn't how to pick a side - it's how to grow beyond the behaviour.
