Cool winds blow (涼風至 Suzukaze itaru)
This microseason will last until August 12.
"How do we maintain a sense of individual agency when our connection is increasingly distributed?"

nuova casa per le galline in costruzione, per questi giorni devono accontentarsi di un bilocale...
I've noticed that as well when I edit posts. The Bonfire Edit dialog isn't quite right. I usually just delete it and start over.
@ele@spark.box464.social @spark464@spark.box464.social @mayel @box464@mastodon.social @admin@spark.box464.social
right, we need to properly integrate the edit workflow in our current composer, instead of using a dialog... will open an issue! thx!
noticing is my way of opposing
"[...] Noticing is my way of opposing a particular modernist practice of looking towards an imagined future. Certain things get coded as possible futures and then we develop blinders so that all we can see is our trajectory towards one kind of imagined future, which isn’t actually the future but is a stereotyped dream future. And so, we stopped seeing. Noticing is trying to take those blinders off to look at the world around us, with special attention to the more-than-human world, by which I mean the human plus non-human world."

🤮 This is the reason why US withdraws from UNESCO today (from the official note)
"...UNESCO’s decision to admit the “State of Palestine” as a Member State is highly problematic, contrary to U.S. policy, and contributed to the proliferation of anti-Israel rhetoric within the organization."

Are you a community, organization or project needing custom features while staying connected to the open web?
Our #Mosaic initiative makes this possible: build your specific tools (open knowledge management, coordination, governance, resource sharing, ...), or integrate your existing tools in your digital space while federating with the wider ecosystem.
Learn how at https://bonfirenetworks.org/mosaic
Your needs, your tools, your community, all connected. 🧩
🌊 Exciting news! Crowdinblue - a mission-led initiative bridging water solutions with funding - has chosen #Bonfire to build their federated community space!
Together, we're designing custom extensions to connect water projects with impact investors and crowdfunding opportunities. All in a federated environment that puts communities and projects first.
Welcome to the Bonfire ecosystem, crowdinblue! 💚

We're experimenting with federated geosocial features in Bonfire, free from surveillance capitalism.
Check into your local community garden. Add location to mutual aid requests. Find tools nearby.
Imagine your local fablab or community center sharing check-ins, calendars, events, opening hours - all federated. A living hub for what's happening there.
🔧 https://github.com/bonfire-networks/bonfire-app/issues/1444
This unlocks new possibilities for local organizing, let's explore together 🔥
Happy to test check-out and travel activities too if you have examples to share.
We're tracking mockups and implementation progress here: https://github.com/bonfire-networks/bonfire-app/issues/1444
Taking a quick detour from our 1.0rc3 milestone work! 🛤️
This morning we added a small but meaningful feature:
🔗 Link previews now display the author's fediverse account when available.
➡️ Next up: Author attribution controls in Bonfire's verification settings, so writers can decide exactly how they're credited when their articles travel across the fediverse. ✍️
It will be available in next release to test it out!
A space for Bonfire maintainers and contributors to communicate
