  1. Quite interesting, isn't it? Aotearoa NZ is discovering that decentralised for power grid infrastructure is the way to go for resilience, cost and meeting climate goals. Additionally, it gives us significantly more sovereignty from overseas suppliers.

    Now Aotearoa will also need to see this with IT infrastructure. #Decentralisation to boost resilience over centralisation via SaaS and hyper scaler's #cloud infrastructure.

  3. This is a genius angle from #C4news that comforts me in my belief that representational #politics as it is now is doomed: no human can face that level of pressure, scrutiny & ultimately, responsibility. If they do, they are psychopaths; if they don't, they fail.

  4. @jon @h4890 My experience within my IRL circles is that people do not generally care enough directly about these issues to make any changes.

    However, they do care about social, political and other issues affecting their world, nation and daily life... so if you wait until they complain about any of these issues and then clearly link their issues to one of our solutions involving #privacy, #decentralisation, #digitalsovereignty, #opensource, #ethicaltech, etc. in a subtle and not-pushy way, you can have a good chance of success.

    Using this strategy, I managed to persuade all of my family members to #gnuLinux, and all of my family and most of my extended family + in-laws that I'm in contact with are now on #DeltaChat.

    @jon @Vivaldi Btw, would be great to have a light stripped-down version of #Vivaldi without the any of the proprietary UI bits for people who prefer Open Source. You could even make it a paid offering like some other browsers.

  8. We'll be gathering at the @dweb camp in Alte Holle/Berlin from 8-12 July, together with people working on the crossroads of #opensource #decentralisation #cooperative #SSE Social and Solidarity Economy and #commoning

    I'm really happy that we decided collectively to do this, when we were together at the @internetarchiveeurope in Amsterdam last February.

    We'll be working together shaping the building up of the Democratic Tech Fund Below a list of the workshops and sessions we're part of (directly), while weaving connections with all people and communities working in solidarity towards a decent world, based on shared, democratic tech that works for our communities and not against us.

  12. I'm in Berlin until Sunday :hamster_dance:

    If you're into #freeSoftware, #decentralisation, #cooperatives, #socialism, #anarchism, #workersUnion, #rojava or other rad stuff; I want to meet you for a nice discussion over a beer, tea, club mate or beverage of your choice :heart_cyber:

    I'll be dropping by the #dwebcamp site, probably on Saturday (but won't enter because it's too expensive), so if you're around Alte Hölle we could also meet there.

    About me: I'm a bit under 30 yrs old, I present mostly masculine. I organize for grassroots democratization in all aspects of society; political, social, economic, technological. Free technology enjoyer and contributor.
    I believe we need to build international bonds between emancipatory movements, and that our movements need tech under movement control (no big tech).

  14. Worshipping the #deathcult is strangely normal even inside our “alternative” tech spaces.

    Look at how we talk about horizontal #openweb projects. The branding itself pulls us back into the same patterns: building identities around products, personalities and platforms instead of the commons and the wider movement.

    #Mastodon, #PeerTube and the use of the term #Fediverse become part of this #fashernista cycle - chasing labels and recognition while avoiding or forgetting the deeper social change these tools were meant to support.

    At the #OMN we use #openweb as the bigger frame. The projects are important, but they should sit as links within a wider ecosystem, not become the whole story.

    The path is not another brand. The path is a living, diverse, decentralised movement for change and challenge.

    Time to stop looking down at the floor, get up and build the commons.

  16. Our #mainstreaming problem. If you are wondering why I keep documenting the issues around the #ActivityPub #openweb reboot, this is why.

    Next time, maybe we can learn. Maybe we can mediate our “libertarian cats” a bit better and get a less messy path. Because we cannot keep making the same mistakes over and over.

    I have been through this mess more than five times over 20 years of working on #openweb use, outreach and community building. This is not theory. It is experience.

    Decentralised spaces are messy by nature. That is part of their strength. But if we don’t learn from our failures, the same patterns keep returning. So at the very least:

    Can we please fuck up differently this time?

    Document the lessons.

    Build the memory.

    Keep the commons alive.

    Mess.

  18. Wrote this 5 years ago, and it still feels relevant.

    #OMN is about pushing pragmatic horizontalism as a living practice.

    There are millions of people experimenting with these ideas through the #fediverse and the wider #openweb - one of the biggest real-world experiments in decentralised, networked social organisation happening today.

    The interesting question is not whether horizontal systems can work. The question is how we learn from them, improve them and build the social tools needed to keep them healthy.

    Less control, more participation, build the commons.

  24. Dear fedizens

    I'm getting into secure resilient decentralised mesh p2p/p4p communication networks.
    (Wow, that's a mouthful)

    Could y'all give me some advice about relevant tech and hardware?

    My primary use case is getting a few thousand people securely connected (messaging, preferably some web services as well) in a large area (hundreds of km²) with rugged terrain.
    Eventually the use case will become fairly similar to "neighbourhood-first software", with 100k people across a few thousand km²: tv.lumbung.space/w/nzuB248U2LQ

    I've watched and read some stuff about #meshtastic, #meshcore and #reticulum, like
    this blog post jonaharagon.com/posts/im-getti
    this glorious video youtube.com/watch?v=W_F4rEaRduk
    and #p4panda in this blog post lores.tech/blog/example-chat-a

    I'm leaning in favour of reticulum with p4panda on top, but can be convinced otherwise.

    What sorta hardware is suitable?
    Is #microreticulum functional?
    Do you know of any decent guides?

    Boosts welcome, cheers!

  30. for those that enjoyed #SecureScuttlebutt in the past, you might be happy to hear that I forked Patchwork and made it compile with a recent stack and added a bunch of features.

    I am shipping binaries for macOS, Linux, Windows for both amd64 and arm64. The macOS binaries are signed.

    You can get the releases from:

    https://github.com/soapdog/patchwork/releases/

    I wrote a bit about the journey so far in a couple blog posts:

  32. Interesting book: "**Transforming universities with an equity focus"**, focusing on decentralisation. This complements my submitted paper to Digital Society (Transformation through decentralisation: learning, democracy and technological sovereignty). If I get the chance I'll add this book to citations.

    I am interested in:

    #localfirst
    #p2p
    #CreativeWriting
    #filmisnotdead
    #indieweb

    Plz boost so I can find cool stuff.

    This is because the dweb.link public #ipfs gateway has been shut down in favour of the new inbrowser.link Service Worker Gateway. I have adapted fedi-followers to it and it's actually a welcome change as it improves #decentralisation and uses verified-fetch under the hood.
