@Amphobet Well, I think just participating in the Fediverse is a good start. It's certainly "wild" out here. For example we're not even using the same apps to talk with each other! Imagine Twitter being interoperable with Reddit, and how different and inventive things can be when humans aren't forced into silos.

@robin @mariafarrell @fediverse Yes! Sometimes people lament the loss of an internet "monoculture" but I see that as an indicator of maturity and health.

 

"We Need To Rewild The Internet"
An absolutely excellent read (and great analogy) by @mariafarrell and @robin Probably the best piece I've read all year.

I often struggle to think of a term for "appearing messy from a distance is often, on a human scale, healthy actually." Comparing the social web to an ecosystem is exactly it.
