@faab64 Why doesn't somebody make a Mastodon style light version of #ebay for our #community I wonder!

Maybe the hashtag #Mastobay is enough!

Trust is pretty high here (more intellectuals doing things safer) and to start with could even be for the older members using the hashtag.

People are promoting their art using #MastoArt so "#Mastobay" etc could be possible for more...

Anyway let's start with some small things as a test:

for #free #network to many
for #exchange / #givaway
for #gifteconomy

NO money said or privately DM's only to avoid the public money regulation)

"#Mastobay" could be just something we talk about using hashtag until we take it more seriously!

What do you think?

"... it requires a design process in which many actors can participate - people with technical expertise, as well as those with lived expertise, domain expertise, organizing expertise, and #community #history expertise. It also means shifting the overarching goal of such #projects from “doing good with #data” to designing for co-#liberation. [...]

Rather than framing acts of #technical #service as benevolence or #charity, the goal of co-liberation requires that those technical workers acknowledge that they are engaged in a struggle for their own #liberation as well, even and especially when they are members of dominant groups."

SHORT VERSION REPLY

The #Answer is building another "society" ON TOP OF #MASTODON - rather than just develop more tech.

We're mostly just developing tech and not developing people

(and then complaining about #society and people falling for the same traps used by tech ).

Without organised #circles or dedicated #talks IN MASTODON (on any #decentalised or #centralised #platform) people do not know how to be nice / what to consider / what to look out for that's normal in new relationships / what do if this or that... / how to do it WITH someone there / where to go regularly...

Ok some chat happens... but is that it for Mastodon as a #movement? ❓
Such a lack of depth...

Without some training, we're lost / undirected online. Sorry.

And let chat (positive ending / action needed).

===============
LONGER VERSION:
===============

Rather than using social media for mostly #hating or fearing things (#Trump #Musk #Bezos #apple #news etc)... build our own society or just increment friendships and trust (must be a way).

Develop better people AT THE SAME TIME. Not just develop tech...

Time to invest in people.
Time invested in people gives back in ways to #community [opportunity, work, listening, tutoring/teaching, other coincidental help / better examples / daily place to go to].

Developing people is the solution now we have the #Technology ....
➡️ (i.e. #MASTODON + #JITSI is ENOUGH to heal / speak / listen / send / receive))

OR #MASTODON = TEXT / PIC
+ #JITSI = AUDIO / VIDEO
+ #NEXTCLOUD = FILES

Develop caring CIRCLES OF people and everything else will come better with it. Might seem a long investment but we have to do the long work anyway because cutting corners and is cutting ourselves off with #short #textism.

Need to be dedicate to people PERSONAL #CARING IN #CIRCLES.

The Answer is NOT JUST MASTODON and leaving people to their quite poor levels of friendliness and own fear... !
(that's why scratching the surface you can find people are JUST LIKE ON #twitter sometimes once we get deeper in #comments and #suggestions).

it's emotional intelligence & incrementing the #art of #friendship and #courage... at the same time as having Mastodon... CIRCLES. ⭕ ↔️ 🔁

( using Jitsi #chat rooms for example https://jitsi.freifunk-duesseldorf.de/chatroom12345 )

Building #Emotional #Intelligence + Friendships
= #Intelligent People
= #Better #humanity

#FREESCHOOL ANYONE?

People need to come #together (#decentalized or not that's the aim!)

The way to end #BIGcrime...? (#Crime by #Industry and #State)

STOP paying (less paying is good)
STOP THE ATTENTION VAMPIRES
STOP listening to them only

STOP PAYING THEM!
MAKE YOUR OWN

✅ MAKE #COMMUNITY

(If you know how bad money = paying more criminals, then build trust and your own community!)
