Love this clip from @molly0xfff's Fediverse House talk:
"Imagine for a moment a web where communities can create their own spaces while still simultaneously and seamlessly interoperating with others. Think of it like a network of independent neighborhoods, each with its own character and rules, but with shared community spaces, art galleries and libraries.
"In this web, you control what you create and decide how it's shared.The algorithms that shape that experience, they're transparent and customizable. You can peek under the hood or tweak them to your liking or replace them entirely if they're not serving your needs. If you're sharing a space with a group of others and you disagree with how they run that space, you can leave, but you can take your work and your community with you.
"This isn't just a dream. This is already happening. Take Mastodon and the broader Fediverse, where millions of people are building communities that talk to each other across servers and platforms."

...Developing people NOT just Tech... People themselves are the weak point and NOBODY IS DEVELOPING PEOPLE (HUMANS TO HUMANS).
@Flipboard @molly0xfff Misses the point of improving people / developing people NOT just Tech - we have had similar systems of messaging and mostly #ICQ and forums have been good but not really humans developing humans - just 1-way interaction - like #Mastodon being a great engine but most of us are socially crap as drivers and can't find a way to increase #Trust, measure people on the fly, practise talking to them - so you get 0-participation or organising as any 'social' and just a donation page, tech debugging and nothing else to contribute to all this despite us all working in A MILLION places with our own resources we could do something with instead of complaining about #Trump all day or thinking #Fediverse is totally different.
People themselves are the weak point and NOBODY IS DEVELOPING PEOPLE (HUMANS TO HUMANS). Tech people are developing computers instead hoping for a better future.
Nuts to expect better people just from installing #linux or something and I know a bunch of almost-retarded (excuse me but just to be short I mean over introvert or recluse hobbit even with kids) and that frankly isn't good enough / keeps problems going!
Humans need to get used to more types of humans and the rest comes with it... #Communication
More #Communication needed and organised... if you want real #SOCIAL!
