• I want a [[community]], not an [[audience]].

  • Audience is stuff like reach, personality/celebrity, spectacle, anxiety, alienation, competition.
  • Community is more like voice, discussion, comradery.

• My social media usage is something like this.

  • Follow people wherever they are (including the big silos).
    • This is with a [[social reader]].
  • Write locally, in my [[personal wiki]], first.
    • This is with [[org-roam]].
  • Publish on my own site, my ‘[[digital garden]]‘. I for sure own the data this way.
    • This is via [[Micropub]] (stream), and [[org-publish]] (garden).
  • Syndicate things elsewhere, wherever the community best fits for my post. But don’t feed the big tech beasts.
    • This is via [[Webmentions]], [[brid.gy]].
  • Interact with people wherever they are, but still via my own site if possible.
    • Some combo of [[social reader]], [[Micropub]], [[brid.gy]].
  • At present, a combo of [[org-mode]], [[IndieWeb]], [[Fediverse]], [[Agora]] make this possible for me.

• I do like the phrase ‘digital garden’ but I still don’t feel comfortable enough to not put it in quotes.

• [[Kaweah Colony]]

  • A group of utopian socialists that named the world’s biggest tree after [[Karl Marx]] in the 19th century. The community was disbanded when Sequoia national park was created and the tree was renamed for American civil war general William Tecumseh Sherman.

• [[Mutualism]]

• [[Caliban and the witch]]

• Bookmarked: Network intersubjectives - by Gordon Brander - Subconscious

• [[Especifismo]]. [[Platformism]].
