  1. What happened over the last ten years on our Fediverse path

    The first steps were good. #Socialhub emerged as a genuinely grassroots space, shaped to maintain the integrity of the #activertypub native reboot. It grew directly out of the #activertypub affinity group itself - rooted in lived practice rather than imposed structure. So what motivated this native path? The current #openweb reboot wasn’t exactly planned - it was, in many ways, serendipitous. During the #WC3 process, the usual mainstream players were largely absent. That gap created space […]

  12. This thinking came out of this thread on the subject of the relationship between #WC3 and the grassroots #socialhub over the “governance” of #ActivityPub and the wider #Fediverse.

    A bridge rather than ownership would look like a collaborative, flexible, and trust-based system, rather than one based on control and dominance. In the context of the Fediverse and openweb spaces, this would mean moving away from territorial battles between the #NGO mainstreaming approach and the grassroots #openweb communities, toward a recognition that both paths have value, and that these different paths can coexist and complement each other.

    The “commons” path is fundamentally about shared responsibility and decentralized governance. It’s the idea that instead of fighting for ownership and control—whether that’s who gets to steer the Fediverse or dominate the standards—we build systems that mediate the different flows, allowing both the formal and the grassroots approaches to contribute and grow together.

    This could manifest in practical ways like:

    • Shared Infrastructure: The infrastructure becomes a part of the commons—no one owns it, but everyone can use and contribute to it.
    • Collaboration Over Competition: Instead of viewing the relationship between the more formal W3C-style governance and grassroots communities like SocialHub as adversarial, we acknowledge that they bring different strengths. The W3C formalism provides structure, while SocialHub’s grassroots, #DIY ethos brings innovation. Each benefits the other, and the bridge is recognizing this value without the need to “own” it.
    • Mediation and Decision-Making Processes: We need native tools for transparent governance. A commons model for governance like the #OGB which was developed on socialhub. Think of it as a flexible process where everyone has a voice, but no one dominates.
    • Value in Diversity: The goal is not to impose a singular vision, but to recognize that the messy, bottom-up humanistic creativity from the grassroots and the more polished, structured contributions from #NGOs both have value. The bridge would allow ideas to cross and enrich each other without needlessly flattening their differences.

    The key to this is not ownership but bridging the different paths. If we see ourselves as gardeners of the #openweb commons, rather than owners of a “slice” of it, the mindset shifts from control to care, recognizing the power in collaboration rather than domination.

    By building these bridges, rather than the normal “common sense” fighting over territory, we create an open network where people and communities can flourish. This bridging needs care, #KISS, trust-based paths, that recognize the shared value and avoid pushing #mainstreaming “common sense” driven artificial divides. It’s about cooperation and connection. #KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid).

  13. @evan ahaa.. the agenda is that #ActivityPub is the culture, so the technology is important, but the serendipity that allowed a #lifecult to slip past the #deathcult when the #dotcons people turned up to that first few #WC3 meetings then went away saying nothing interesting here...

    The value is the history of how we got there, the spec is a footnote, it's the (cultural) ideas that are embodied in the spec that have the power. And if you dig a little, it's clearly a #counterculture :)

  15. @danhon

    Uhm... #ActivityPub is a #WC3 recommended standard published by the Social Web Working Group.

    It's a "hobbyist group" project in the same way as #HTML was.

  18. Exotic Wing Commander III bug! In the first scramble mission (B1 or C1) you are automatically assigned three wingmen: Weasel (a scripted death) and then Maniac and Mitchell. If one is shot down, they're replaced by a rotation:. But it doesn't check for duplicates, so you can end up with two Maniacs or two Vagabonds! It's unlikely to ever happen during regular gameplay because there isn't really anything in the mission that will kill six of your wingmen. wcnews.com/news/2023/12/27/exo #retrogaming #wc3

  19. The tech world spans from grassroots innovation to mainstream integration, and nestled within this spectrum is #Socialhub, initially a grassroots haven rooted in the activertypub framework. Its evolution from #activertypub signifies a unique approach in tech.

    The
    #openweb reboot emerged fortuitously during #WC3, with alternative voices shaping its definition due to the absence of mainstream stakeholders. This atypical path was advantageous for the community's progression.

    Initially thriving as a vibrant community hub, recent years have brought challenges. An influx of individuals without a 'native'
    #openweb view, driven by Twitter immigrants and Fediverse expansion, led to a divergence from the original focus, creating both opportunities and complexities.

    A pronounced shift towards tech has overshadowed the necessary social aspects, causing a reduction in the core social-oriented crew. This imbalance mirrors the WC3 process reboot, necessitating a delicate balance between tech and social responsibilities.

    The visible shift from community-driven space to an agenda-driven platform poses challenges, requiring a more democratic approach to reconcile these shifts.

    Grassroots initiatives are inherently messy, distinguishing their authenticity.

    Constructive feedback is crucial for improving the FEP process, which often experiences a 'three steps forward, three steps back' pattern in activism. The need for legitimacy within FEP involves social explanations and wider community buy-in.

    Transparent, inclusive processes are crucial, as both FEP and W3C currently lack transparency, risking being sidelined without community involvement.

    Activism rooted in history offers lessons to prevent continued ignorance towards these processes, emphasizing the importance of wider social engagement and transparent processes for tech communities like Socialhub.

  21. To note for people who are not familer with this way of looking at the world, the ansear to the question is always more alt grassroots vs less mainstreaming, of course this is always a balance so best not to get into a #ragecircle on this mess making.

    #Socialhub originated as a grassroots alternative space specifically designed to maintain the integrity of the activertypub reboot within its inherent framework. Initially stemming from #activertypub itself, this forum embarked on this trajectory.

    The emergence of the current #openweb reboot was more serendipitous than deliberate. Amidst the #WC3 proceedings, the absence of the typical mainstream participants allowed our alternative cohort to drive and solidify the definition through this "native" #4opens technological pathway an uncommon yet advantageous route for our community to follow.

    Socialhub fostered a genuine and thriving community. The pinnacle of this community's strength was witnessed during the outreach efforts to the EU within the Fediverse. However, recent years have brought challenges; the influx of individuals without a "native" #openweb view has led to a divergence from our initial focus, primarily due to the significant impact of Twitter immigrants and the expansion of the Fediverse. This is good and bad, we have moved a long way from where we started, and have to make the best of this more messy community.

    Over the last year we have had a (strong dogmatic) shift to the tech side of activertypub working and away from the social side that is needed for making a working #openweb reboot. In the forum we have had a reduction of the core crew, and an influx of the tech focused new members, this is likely a mirror in the expansion and the rebooting of the WC3 process and the two have have a balancing act of responsibility.

    “To use the forum, you must agree to these terms with Petites Singularités, the company that runs the forum.” This has become more visible and the owner has a point of view and agenda, this is actually not a space for/by “community” in the sense it was originally sold… shifting from “serendipitous to deliberate” the solution to this shift/issue is likely not easy and involves democracy in some form.

    Grassroots is always messy, that's how you can judge if its grassroots or NOT :)

    Let’s try some constructive comments on this to improve the fep process.

    What we have here is a classic activism 3 steps forward 3 steps back process, this is a recurring issue.

    The ideas behind this are good, the outcome is questionable, and the process still needs work.

    There is a current undeclared fight in the FEP → W3C email list, that is likely unresolvable which is a fine example of the fluffy spiky debate, the only good outcome from my prospective and likely socialhub is making the fep more Legitimacy (political) this is a post with ideas for process to help that happen.

    To be a valid fep they should have a non-technical (social) explanation on why it’s needed and what are the social implications of this purely technical change.

    As we are NOT only talking about technical points here, most are based on social ideas and have social outcomes for social networking. We need this wider buy in to make this process legitimate.

    This process is simple and can be started by the original poster, then carried on by the wider community to build buy in and legitimacy.

    Currently, both the fep and the W3C are too much black boxes to have any path to build buy in, thus are being ignored defacto.

    This will likely continue without some basic activism as outlined above, the is much to learn from this long history of affective activism.

  24. #Socialhub was built as a grassroots alt space to keep the activertypub reboot “native” this forum started as #activertypub itself started “native” on this alt path.

    The current #openweb reboot is accidental in that during the #WC3 process the normal #mainstreaming people did not turn up so we ended up with our alt crew pushing the definition through this “native” path in tech is unusual and a good path for us to keep to.

    We had a real community on socialhub. The process of outreaching the Fediverse to the EU was likely the highlighting of this community. The last few years, with the twitter immigration and Fediverse expansion this community has had problems, a big influx of agenders has lead to a shift away from this "native" focus.

  30. @paige @kaleb

    Can it really be that simple?.. 👀 I kind of assumed that #ActivityPub changes were kind of forged/conjured using black magic, by arcane furry coding masters/misstresses/enbies in the bowels of darkened caves, deep, deep below ground beneath the corporate offices of the #wc3 .

    Only half joking here.

  31. #ActivityPub was an "accidental" #openweb reboot, it exists because the #dotcons turned up at the #wc3 meeting did not find anything useful for themselves so left the “weirdos” to get on with building a #4opens aproch. The “weirdos” manage to hold things together long enough to get the #activertypub standard through the open but burocratic process and pushed it out to the world.
