In medieval European agrarian societies, it wasn&#39;t uncommon to have a fortified city that was there primarily for trade and defence, but that people converged on for feasts and fairs such as Goose Fair in Nottingham (it still runs today). This might be a way to square the sharing of cultural norms and exchange of ideas amongst a wider population, without necessarily living full time in a city. 2025-08-03T13:19:28Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs2gv0fz5lzx5gawfc83l90v3uqnp687w4r5w348n2xjfse4t0684szyplnwg4f8k44m4fcsefsfk7usxp2cwj8jw4wkgtj9mwj74jxk3f8x0y4f8v In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs0n2kdx3vg9dccd3q0kccpeq80avr3gt0xeqm2hsrkz93mynfvmmc7m6w5y'>nevent1q…6w5y</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>but it&#39;s not what it can do, it&#39;s who&#39;s there. I&#39;m on FB for old school friends I want to humblebrag to, and my mum uses it. I&#39;m on Insta for my arty maker friends. I&#39;m on YouTube because I like baking videos, and TikTok because it&#39;s funny. It&#39;s _Social_ media, emphasis on social. <br/><br/>Bring the audience, bring people as one. <br/><br/>Make it super easy to set up a server for you and your friends. Let federation happen quietly, and the decay of big tech will come for free. 2025-06-10T22:24:58Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsq0xzrukgyc49dtvwgms5m50qtxyljfjpln38k0hh9qrvnkghz5wczyplnwg4f8k44m4fcsefsfk7usxp2cwj8jw4wkgtj9mwj74jxk3f8xaz9q7j In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsgcktrgj53sz3d8z40js3q84yke7np646045aesnedulzpyxexz8sq7cx66'>nevent1q…cx66</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>hate to say this, but if the aim is to _win_ over big tech, over centralised platforms, then the _pitch_ has to be for something people need/want, more than it&#39;s virtues. <br/><br/>People want to be where their friends are.
