I used to think tech was neutral. But then I watched a friend burn out holding space online. I saw joy swallowed by platforms that didn’t understand care.

That’s why I build tech that feels like home.

At #FediCollective, we’re technologists, designers & organizers creating healing tech with and for BIPOC & LGBTQ+ communities rooted in joy, care, and futures built with heart.

As we plan for 2026, we’re opening the circle.

✨ Looking for guest speakers, co-organizers & collaborators
💻 Devs, designers, founders, community-minded marketers
💛 Most of all, people who build with care

🗓️ Join our November & December sessions: https://lu.ma/FediCollective

🌐 Learn more: https://fedicollective.lovable.app

If you’re building tech that helps people feel more whole, more seen, more safe — let’s connect. 🌱

@Crissy always makes me wonder why so many protected characteristics get a mention in these things, but disability never does.

@Crissy all good! but technology and accessibility are so, so neglected, and at least from a blindness perspective, we genuinely are suffering for it. 😊 thank you for hearing me and not taking it badly

@BlinkWithAKink “if we can help, we will” and of course no one has to needlessly suffer or be even annoyed by barriers that they cannot participate (is how i think of how to approach the solution).

I wish to find folx to help with accessibility and inclusion.

Addressing this directly at my events (the importance of alt-texting everything media is a first step)

PS
Read your post on purchasing a gift vibe for your person and I’m sorry it’s not user friendly

Update from #FediCollective 💛

Had some beautiful responses from folks who want to co-create ethical, healing tech! Grateful to those who’ve feel called to share your skills and expertise. That’s exactly the kind of energy I adore!

I’m based in Vancouver 🇨🇦, where our IRL Third Space chats happen monthly.

Our November & December sessions are in-person here but NOTE this is a global invitation. 🌍

TLDR: looking for collaborators, cohosts, and guest speakers from anywhere who care about making the #fediverse and online spaces feel safe, friendly, and human kind.

Whether you’re a dev, designer, founder, or just someone with a story or idea to share ~ if you build with care, I wanna hear from you.

Let’s help each other feel more whole, more seen, more connected.

In Greater Vancouver:

✨ Just adding: we welcome recorded presentations for 2026.

Got a talk, demo, or story about ethical tech, personal projects, or ways to make the fediverse feel safer and more fun for new folx? Love to share it when the time feels right.

Whether it’s a passion project or a quiet reflection, your voice matters.

Let’s keep building with care, wherever we are.

Thank you. I love you #fedifolx
