@csolisr@hub.azkware.net ah yeah it probably would have to built for (ideally on) your machine in this case

@csolisr@hub.azkware.net Which dependency did you see on AVX? our markdown renderer for example uses it when available but has a fallback which should be enabled automatically when not available (otherwise you can force it with `MDEX_USE_LEGACY_ARTIFACTS=true`. In any case please provide more info or open a bug report.

@liaizon@social.wake.st those are just placeholders, our goal is maximum interoperability while also extending what is possible, and we're participating in the W3C groups task force to define how things should work, please weigh in there if you have any suggestions: github.com/swicg/groups/issues

You can read more about our work on groups in this previous blog post: bonfirenetworks.org/posts/wh...

And if you're an #ActivityPub developer who's interested, please join the W3C task force discussions: github.com/swicg/groups/issues

Thanks for asking, it's something we're taking seriously. We're working on an AI policy for the project but want to do it thoughtfully and with care rather than rush something out, please bear with us.

Our @fediforum@mastodon.social demo is up! 🔥

We showed off Bonfire Mosaic and our ongoing work on federated groups and new publisher tools we’ve been co-designing with jacobin.de, including federated discussion threads that can be embedded on their existing website.

Built on our modular framework for community-governed digital spaces.

@lauti 🍻

We are a little bit late to the party, but on the 1. May we celebrated #lauti's first anniversary 🥳.
This year was crazy, we got in touch with so many amazing people a long the way. We did our first talk at the #39c3 self organized session of @techfrombelow@chaos.social
We visited #fosdem with our friends from @Bonfire where they announced our collaboration working on #events in the #fediverse.
We are just getting started, SSO is around the corner and we are working on #activitypub at the moment.
For more updates take a look at our last blog post

The paper Governing Together: Toward Infrastructure for Community-Run Social Media by @s0hw@hci.social @andresmh@hci.social and colleagues at hci.princeton.edu (which we will discuss at #FediForum today) takes on a tension at the heart of decentralised social media. The fediverse promises to empower communities to govern themselves and set norms in their own context, on their own terms. But communities can't actually govern in isolation. Their members talk across boundaries, bad actors hop between servers, and the rules one community sets can directly undermine another's. The authors call these "governance frictions."

Their argument is that we've spent a lot of design effort looking inside communities, like improving moderation tools and onboarding, but almost none on what they call inter-community governance: the infrastructure that lets communities coordinate, share information, and manage their relationships with each other.

To explore what that infrastructure could look like, they ran four design workshops with 24 Fediverse admins, moderators, and developers. Participants imagined ideal tools, and the authors synthesized those ideas into six concrete challenges, like making governance decisions visible, sharing nuanced information about issues, controlling who you share what with, and minimizing barriers to adoption.

The synthesis lands on three design principles:

Modularity: communities need a shared vocabulary, like a "Governance Nutrition Facts" label, so they can read each other parsimoniously.

Polycentricity: communities should sit in overlapping "trust bubbles," not one global network, so they can have nuanced, evolving relationships.

And forkability: communities should be able to copy and adapt each other's governance structure and rules, preserving autonomy while reducing labor.

The big takeaway: decentralisation alone isn't enough. If we want community-run social media to actually work, we need to design the connective tissue between communities, and the design principles here may apply well beyond the Fediverse, to any platform where multiple communities coexist.

Today at #FediForum we'll have a discussion with some of the co-authors of the academic paper Governing Together: Toward Infrastructure for Community-Run Social Media. There's no better time to read this paper!

bonfire.cafe/post/01KQDCWGK0...

If you're attending #FediForum let's have a discussion tomorrow around this open access paper: Governing Together: Toward Infrastructure for Community-Run Social Media which argues that decentralized platforms like the Fediverse focus on governing within communities, but ignore the frictions between them. From workshops with 24 Fediverse community organisers, they identify six design challenges (visibility of governance decisions, collating issue information, controlling what's shared and with whom, enabling new inter-community relationships, customising governance, and minimizing adoption barriers) and propose three principles for "inter-community governance": modularity (shared vocabulary, like governance nutrition labels) and forkability (copy and adapt others' governance structure or rules), and polycentricity (overlapping trust bubbles instead of one global network, i.e. archipelagos).

Decentralisation and autonomy alone aren't enough, communities need connective tissues to interconnect them beyond just technical federation (a mycelium network if you like 😊)

If you're interested and are able to read or peruse it ahead of time that will help us have a more grounded and potentially productive discussion based on it...

Hi everyone

We're a new tech co-op that aims to support people working for social good with compassionate and caring tech support. No more feeling alone, no more getting stuck. That thing that is a total showstopper for you, may be an easy fix for us. We’ll be there for you.

We're currently mostly one person @kawaiipunk who is a founder member of @autonomic (and friends) but we're looking to expand.

@reflex@retrogaming.social ah blogposts have date at the end of the page, we'll move at the top for clarity, but we're alive and thriving... will share more of our ongoing work at the next @fediforum@mastodon.social if you are interested 😊

@reclaimthetech@mastodon.uno

@elettrona@poliversity.it ouch! though today at 19.00 we will hold a workshop online for preparing the structure and priorities, we can share the link via DM if you can make it...

On Saturday May 9th in Rome, as part of the Nina Festival, we're hosting a workshop to think with Bonfire, exploring and co-designing federated digital spaces for caring for our communities.
Together with @reclaimthetech@mastodon.uno, Zero81, Scift Lab and more.
📍 Millepiani, Via Odero 13, 3pm
If you're in (or near) Rome, come join us!
