@CrisColor It's not easy to explain, and I've been workshopping it on my own with friends in conversation for more than a year 馃槄
@kissane @bonfire yeah, its a really challenging thing to explain.
I do think "both a platform like mastodon, and a toolkit for internet community software" like you described it in your post is better than what they have on their page right now
A simpler intro to the premise before they get into the details and explain their mission & why it matters would be really nice
Regardless, I'm really excited for bonfire!
@kissane @bonfire I use threaded link aggregator platforms (lemmy/piefed/mbin) more than microblogging, but I'm hopeful they can lead the way in rethinking some of the choices we blindly copied from corporate platforms (for understandable reasons, I'm sure designing a new platform is an unbelievable amount of work, + building it all & growing userbase)
I'm excited to be able to make an account in the future! I don't think there's an instance available yet? But I need to take a closer look :)

Light the fire.
(Not to burn things down, maybe just to warm the hearts of some wretched people.)
@kissane pledged! I and others have been watching what they are up to and I have hope they are going to get some traction.
(PLEASE can we finally have SM WITH EVENTS that will actually challenge the monopoly in this space that is STILL held by FB)
@kudra They鈥檙e working on it! I think it could matter a lot.
