The #openweb we need to reboot this path of tech, but more importantly, rebuild the crew that made it possible.

Look back at #Climatecamp and #Indymedia (https://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/actions/2006/climatecamp/) radical, messy, collective. That energy built something real. But we also tore it apart. The reasons weren’t just technical, they were mostly social. Power struggles, blocking, burnout, mistrust.

If we want a real reboot, we can’t just repeat the same mistakes. We need to compost what failed, keep the working parts, and grow something that can sustain itself. That’s both tech and culture.

The lesson is simple: the tools matter, but the trust matters more.
