My thoughts on the #futureoftheinternet, #digitalfreedom, #freedomofinformation, and #accessibility–with some #FOSS and #anarchy thrown in, of course.
I absolutely welcome comments and feedback offered in good will from the informed minds gathered in this particular digital space #Lemmy #Fediverse #keepsmesane
Recently I was thinking about how I missed webrings for websites instead of reliance on search engines, many of which aren’t even directing you to the sites anymore just showing AI summaries.
I learned about https://32bit.cafe/ just today. Looks like a lot of people are starting to build up the communities again.
Oh wow, thank you for bringing this to my attention. I’m really glad to know folks are working in this direction!
Theirs also: https://tildeverse.org/ I know next to nothing about this rabbit hole but it looks cool.
tildeverse is great learn about gemini it’s the underground internet right out of of the early 90s.
Why all the hashtags? I feel like I just stumbled into an ad.
I’d love to tell you that it was an attempt at visual irony, but the reality is I originally posted this in another corner of the Fediverse and was too lazy to remove the #hashtags. The good/bad news is that I have nothing to sell you.
It will definitely be decentralized. The biggest blows to real representative democracy happened when the courts made the “corporations are people / money is speech” arguments.
Ive paid for private email hosting for years now, and run a bunch of services on a pi now. Google is almost completely out of my life, and my fb has been deactivated for years. I’m not kicking any corporate walls down, but it feels good to be the change I want to see. 🤷♂️
