• Great [[Flancia Meet]] today. I was tired after little sleep so almost didn’t go, but really glad I did.
  • Some topics that arose:
    • Using text-based actions in the stoa as a simple metalayer of intergarden communication.
      • I like this, because thinking about counter-anti-disintermediation, Agora actions could be in theory anti-disintermediation, i.e. a locking together of individual digital gardens, if actions were part of the Agora platform in e.g. a DB. But if they are a protocol that you can add either in to the stoa or in to your own garden, then Agora remains an optional viewer. Lock-in does remain at a protocol level, but that seems less bad. [[Protocol cooperativism]]?
      • But you can also use the stoa if you don’t wish to put the actions in your own personal data store.
    • Ranking was mentioned as one of the actions.
    • Some really good discussion around moderation, trust, community, federation and defederation.
• Reread: [[How’s That Open Source Governance Working for You?]]
