#trustroots — Public Fediverse posts

"What of we took TrustRoots, this couchsurfing-like sharing platform, and rebuilt it on a permissionless, open social protocol. So they're in the process of rewriting TrustRoots so it runs on the Nostr open social protocols. So that it... doesn't have the problem that happened with CouchSurfing[.com]. So that it isn't owned by just one person - the creator - but it is... held in common by the community... who are hosts..."

#TrustRoots #GiftEconomy #Nostr

thanks to #trustroots we camped @ kasper's property near #Aljezur. it was so lovely to share time with interesting and inspiring people that we stayed 5 days to chat, eat and help around the house. marc installed a kitchen sink in the shed and fiona mounted the water connection together with one of the other guests.

due some strong rain we realised that our #tent leaked. luckily we had a tube of seam grip glue with us. so we could glue the leaking areas.

@ajunjahi Es gibt die #Opensource -Alternativen #Trustroots und #bewelcome. In wie weit couchers.org auch open source ist , weiss ich nicht. Toll sind auch #1nitetent im Sommer, um ein Zelt im Garten aufzubauen und #Warmshowers, um #Langstreckenradfahrer zu beherbergen.

From what I've been reading about the history of #BeWelcome (http://www.bevolunteer.org/about-bevolunteer/history/), it sounds like #CouchSurfing and #HospitalityClub are proprietary #DataFarms, so I doubt they'd be interested in federation. But maybe BW and #TrustRoots.org would, and it would intriguing to find out where #HelpX, #Workaway, #WarmShowers, and any other existing hospitality exchange sites fit into this picture.
