Governance of #Onlinecommunity
Six case histories
As I was saying about the diff between #onlinecommunity snd #socialmedia — founder of Digg appears to agree:
“Backstage at the TechCrunch Disrupt 2025 conference on Wednesday, Rose explained that he sees the future of social as being more focused on protected online spaces and “micro communities of trusted users.”

Main difference between #socialmedia and #onlinecommunity is the algorithm -- in community, the participants, not the provider, choose where to put their attention. It's easy enough to spin up your own forum, discord, google group at little to no cost.
