Ironically the definition of "the digital commons" revolves around the concept of shared resources with a low barrier to access, but the reality if often the exact opposite to this.

So if the commons are too difficult to participate in, people with limited time, money, compute power, mental bandwidth aren't going to engage with these systems...

Tonights unpopular opinion is the tragedy of the #DigitalCommons won't be resolved until we start looking beyond #DigitalGovernance, formal rules and expanding networks.

We have a very clear problem with the digital divide and underrepresented groups being highly focused on survival or #ReproductiveLabour rather than participating in these spaces.
