Social Media Reimagined

This is a companion to Fediverse Futures on Social Coding to elaborate the Fediverse from high-level, non-technical perspectives, brainstorming our visions and dreams.

We need a more holistic approach to fedi development and evolution. We need product designers, graphics artists, UX / UI / Interaction designers, futurists and visionaries to join the dev folks. Everyone is encouraged to join here and enrich our views on what Fediverse can be with diverse and different viewpoints, and to stimulate brainstorming, creativity, thinking out-of-the-box and crazy, wild ideas.

Some guidelines

Please read the Social Coding Community Participation Guidelines for more information.

  1. Reddit sells its api for high and is about to go for an IPO, its economy bases entirely on the data made by the users/communities. It is the work of the public, get robbed by a small group of individuals. A living example of capitalism.

  2. Fediverse isn't enough to secure the publicity and usage of public data. What if the host of Lemmy instance also releases the snapshots of all the posts and modlogs, everyday, in the form of bittorrent? Only by doing so, we are safe from the host erasing public knowledge and data brokers.

DRM is not the only option. If they want to restrict the usage, they can just write a custom license for their publications. And wait isn't the problem with DRM is that it uses unique device IDs?

And how well does that work in games? “You can’t cheat, please don’t, pinky promise?” It’s the same with LLMs. They see data, they parse it, licenses be damned. It’s as bad as those people trying to link to the license they released their text under or on Facebook with people posting “I don’t approve my text to be used… “.

Well if someone breaks the license, they can be lawsuited. But yea if you don't want your data to ever be used for anything, public is not an option. It's the same with irl speeches
