It's eye-watering stupid how politicians in @npub1m96…ag4y and #EU parliament - in a time when there's big opportunity to forge more unity in our Union, and (re)gain people's #Trust - continue to pursue deep #dystopia against the #People's will over and over and over again. It is embarassing and shameful, and should be criminal.
Here's some excerpts from the HN comments thread:
> It seems abundantly clear that the options on any vote in any legislature for a proposed bill are always “yes” and “ask me later”.
> Is it still a democracy if you just keep redoing the vote until you get the outcome you want?
> It's really surprising to me that this issue keeps coming up time and time again, until I realised that it's non-voted in parties actually trying to pass this stuff!
> It's all about the lobbying. It's honestly crazy that essentially bribery is legal. A few thousand here and there for campaign donations. It's amazing how cheap politicians are.
Don't betray our trust!

From @npub14rv…y6tq site creator, in a HN comment:
> In an unprecedented move, the #EPP is attempting to force a repeat vote tomorrow, seeking to overturn the otherwise principled March 11 decision and instead favouring indiscriminate mass #surveillance. In an attempt to avoid this, the Greens earlier today tried to remove the repeat vote from the agenda tomorrow, but this was voted down.
> As such, tomorrow, the Parliament will once again vote on Chat Control. And unlike March 11, multiple groups are split on the vote, including S&D and Renew. The EPP remains unified in its support for #ChatControl. If you are a #European citizen, I urge you to contact your #MEPs by e-mail and, if you have time, by calling. We really are in the final stretch here and every action counts. I have just updated the website to reflect the votes today, allowing a more targeted approach.

The fediverse is a new type of social network that is built by people themself, by adding their own servers and applications, so that the network organically grows. Millions of people from across the globe are thus able to find each other on the basis of shared passions and interests, and navigate a rich tapestry of inclusive communities to discuss and collaborate, and to express their freedom and creativity.

The paradox of decentralization is that the more a technology ecosystem decentralizes, the more need there is for cohesive coordination to assure that the foundational technologies can support that decentralization, without the ecosystem falling apart.

Tons of discussion about seeking alternatives to #Microsoft #Github, now that it has become part of MS's #AI division.
What made GH so popular, we should ask? Well, a ton of features and services on top of #git and a huge platform that makes exploring millions of #FOSS projects easy, are among the reasons I suppose.
The #ActivityPub @npub1nwy…v47n project funded by #NGI0 via @npub1n8y…l96n is creating open standards to provide the same, *native* to the #fediverse!

Is there any prior experience, I wonder, of open social networks where free culture thrives, and the socio-cultural impact that introduction of monetization schemes has on such environments?
I'm quite worried about how such introduction for fedi may create monetary incentives that attract people for all the wrong reasons, and in ways that harm the current culture of fedi, which sets it apart from mainstream corporate social media.

I wonder what your thoughts are regarding the sustainability model of #Datastar they came up with.
- They founded a non-profit for custodianship.
- Their Datastar library is fully self-contained, considered feature-complete. Simple, concise code, available to anyone.
- This library contains a plugin mechanism. Any added feature is an extension.
- Anyone can build/offer plugins. Datastar has free + paid ones.
That is not an open core model exactly, isn't it? Musing 🤔

Correction. *Worked* in gaming. Is now working for NATS, hence that tech choice.
(Aside: NATS recently wanted to dodge out of Linux Foundation and apply different licensing, but ultimately and under much public pressure, cancelled that trajectory again.)

2025-07-20 08:53:43 UTC

- reply

Btw, the event-based approach is also what attracted me to Datastar. One of the devs who works in gaming (hence focus on performance and intermediate UI) is using a bootstrap for both hobby and work that is event-sourced and has NATS and SQLite on the back-end by default.
More generally it is interesting to consider event-driven architecture e.g. for the collaborative social web i.e. fediverse.
I'm looking for simple tech to experiment with that a bit :)

The issue I see with the Object Links FEP is that it boils down to: "If I know you adhere to the FEP, now I know to apply special logic to as:Link". May work well if we only do (micro)blogging. Is it a good general mechanism for a heterogeneous interoperable social web?
I am thinking more of: "Use existing open standards". Web annotations comes to mind. Specifically an annotation motivatedBy linking.

What works very well is making comparisons to the offline world. Here we are a 'single-threaded' individual that walks their own timeline, who enters a global square when there is a need and just as seamlessly weaves into different social contexts where other social networking use cases play out, for different audiences.
This approach is what Social experience design or #SX explores for patterns & practices of its design method.

Weird. You edited the toot and changed 'index' to 'feed' in the fedi handle to 404 media.
So I received a mastodon 'edited a post' notification that in the display text reflects that. However when I hover over that with my mouse it still points to the 'index' handle, and same when replying.
'Open original page' shows everything as I'd expected it to be.

#FOSS has an economic value of 8.8 trillion US dollars. Without FOSS companies would have to spend around 3.5 times more money on software. This is according to a study by Harvard Business School. Around 95 percent of this is attributable to 3,000 developers worldwide. In addition, open-source software is included in 96 percent of all codebases. [..] the supply value is 4.15 billion US dollars. In contrast, the demand value is 2000 times higher.

#FOSS is the great accomplice of #BigTech dominance, by not considering its impact on society and by generally not being produced sustainably. FOSS does not defend its market position, dumping itself on the market and leaving the rest to chance. The vultures know how to make good use of this. FOSS does not worry whether its customer segment - the #Commons - is reached, and evil players are kept out.
Big tech manages to win through ‘free’ in their delivery model, where FOSS sees itself losing.

#Philosophy 🤔
#SocialExperienceDesign is pragmatically based on existing show-dont-tell #technosphere and its societal disruption machine. #SX focuses on #sociosphere to bridge tech-to-#people chasm and realign tech-to-#humanity
Does society have social experience?
Does activism count as social experience? Can urgency be JIT lazy-loaded?
Do intrinsic solutions exist?
Can we weave social fabric?
Can we spark commons?
If a technosphere brings new fediverse, can a sociosphere renew our universe?

A #philosophy byte: Is having a #CommonsIdeology, an #ideology that is shared and binding force for an open #commons, a case where ideology as #concept is fine and unproblematic when reasoning #society-scale and solve its wicked problems?
Or is ideology as concept by definition flawed for any real practice use, since it can never account for the intricacy of the complex #SocialDynamics that are at play. A simplification, #coping mechanism for #people to think order to chaos.

2025-01-19 06:28:17 UTC

#SocialMedia is not #SocialNetworking but a particular subset thereof. I personally reserve it exclusively for the corporate #BigTech variant, because people have such strong associations. "Socials" and social media big techz.
The kind "that leads us to the complete unraveling of the fabric of #society and wars" to use the same ominous words of Tristan Harris, formerly at #Google as #Ethics adviser, in 2019 when he explained the new strategic direction for the Center of #HumaneTechnology to me.

Oh, that is cool. I refer to him a lot these days, mostly related to fediverse installed base and open social stacks built on next-gen social web technology.
How current approach ensures we build a technosphere, and most of the 'social connecting layer' to real people and day-to-day human activity is for people to figure out as the tech is dumped into society.
How to do better is part of raison d'être of the social coding movement, which introduces the new IT field of SX.

Other than that a system built under hypercapitalism, will be a hypercapitalist system, if we should believe Conway's Law. We know that hypercapitalism is not ready to accept industrially unmilkable cows. The juice must come out fast once it starts flowing through cheap shallow channels.

exactly.
An analogy, maybe. Say I live in a small communal group where we do collective gardening. My hobby is to chop wood, with the precious axe my late father gave me.
So, I joyously chop wood for myself.. and also for my neighbors. A kind gesture.
Then neighbors come:
"We need more wood"
"I want thinner splices"
"There should be a rack for people's orders"
"I need a truckload for my friends"
And then:
"This jerk gatekeeps his wood"
"Yea, suck big time."
"This guy is a BDFL!"

Now image the situation where the popularity of the #FOSS project grew unnoticed, and the expectation of "hobby project" was never well conveyed.
Even the maintainer at this point considers the project "more than hobby". They want to keep working in the way that motivated them to start, despite people demanding differently. They still want #JoyOfCoding and to build what they want, thus decide to retain full control of contributions.
The label #BDFL is slammed broadly about in harsh criticism.

2024-11-19 05:24:53 UTC

Suppose that during the project a best-practice was followed of:
- Clearly communicate your intent with the project, so people can set their own expectations accordingly.
And you made this painstakingly clear in all project communication, emphasizing a "hobby project".
Are people in the wrong when they throw the BDFL criticism card?

2024-11-19 05:18:00 UTC

Someone starts a new #FOSS project as a hobby activity. "No one bossing me around like at work, just having fun, do as I wish." they write in the README.
After some time the project starts to get noticed, people request new features, and some Pull Requests are contributed and merged. There's a good vibe with similarly interested devs.
One year later. An unhappy community has formed. People complain about the #BDFL and harsh words circle the social channels.
Is the label of "BDFL" justified?

It is a pity that #Peertube has never been well integrated with #Microblogging. The primary way we become aware of a #video is when someone drops the URL in a toot, and we open it in a separate tab. We watch while not logged into the particular @npub17gp…7p4g instance, thus not giving likes and having interesting discussions in the comments section.
Same is true for #Pixelfed and #Mobilizon etc.
While organically building my social graph for years, this stuff just doesn't reach my timeline mostly.

Check out @npub1p9l…l05x on #SocialHub with a proposal to work on #ActivityPub #C2S, the client-to-server Social API part of the #W3C Recommendation.
The Social API didn't get much uptake on the #Fediverse where generally the #Mastodon API is used (and abused) for client/server communication.
It is not because the Social API isn't good, just that no one ever did the legwork to mature this part of the spec.
Are you interested in C2S and help push the #SocialWeb?
