From 1990's to early 2000 UK had a strong protest /activist/ anarchist culture that had good working traditions if you do a search for "1990 road protest spiky fluffy" you will find resources send me a link if you find a good one as we are not good at keeping our history.

The current web is a poisoned space for discourse.
It's to shallow to put down roots, so everything is blowing in the wind.
Ideas to change/challenge this please.

* Come on https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/ and hang with the cats.
Outreach the fedvers to different groups and try and get a coherent voice - back to the cats.
* Look at the shifting of funding from donations and patron to foundation driven funding.
* Mediate the problem of kings and princes in the fedivers. currently 90% is ruled by a king, the rest by oligarchies. less than 1% by the users.
Nothing by the anarchists.
We don't have a problem of "governance"...

OK am starting to feel like am trolling "Reimagine the Internet" as its all academic and #dotcons history.
The same people and the same story we have heard for the last wasted 10 years.
Nothing so far touching on the #Fediverse let alone the #openweb.
It's off TOPIC I feel like shouting though out the oneway ZOOM video presentation - you can find their video's on youtube.
After proding they are talking about putting them on #peertube ;)

This came outa the "herding cats" in the EU outreach.
Best to not get to worked up on the words used as they are open to change - we need good ways of talking about their issues that cross groups - I was going to use activist vocab but it simply means nothing to the current tech crew.
have a look at the example were we look at the "governance" of a local street market with the same codebase.
Your outcome is EXACTLY the outcome we are aiming for :)
the cats is only a problem if you see outreach as a good thing.
can understand that a lot of people are more inword looking.
diversity is good on this one.
The funding issue is a crisis... as it's going to grow into a big fight. This might rip the whole thing down, the is a long history of this outcome happening.
Holding bridges in between different groups is a hard thing to do - and kinda thankless as every side tries to demolish the bridge you have taken so much care to build.
If you want to build a better world outside your "cave" then support people building bridges please.

The world is made up of
hierarchical groups who use power to enforce their agenders. In the horizontal world we need to have a way of bridging to this #mainstreaming majority.
This is a project to make a horizontal body that looks like something a vertical group can talk to and make agreements.

Join #peertube is a mess I have been talking to them on this subject for a long time. Its hard, I think it is because they are build tech first then social long after. Looking at it positively it's a priory thing. Looking at it negatively its funding and NGO agenders leading to tick box coding.
Over all #peertube is a better project than most of the tech mess in alt-codeing so am going for the positive view for now.
