Social Media Reimagined

This is a companion to Fediverse Futures on Social Coding to elaborate the Fediverse from high-level, non-technical perspectives, brainstorming our visions and dreams.

We need a more holistic approach to fedi development and evolution. We need product designers, graphics artists, UX / UI / Interaction designers, futurists and visionaries to join the dev folks. Everyone is encouraged to join here and enrich our views on what Fediverse can be with diverse and different viewpoints, and to stimulate brainstorming, creativity, thinking out-of-the-box and crazy, wild ideas.

Some guidelines

Please read the Social Coding Community Participation Guidelines for more information.

It is like retweeting.. unlike on Twitter you can't add your own comments to the boost.

On twitter if you Like a tweet, then the algorithms pick it up and it may go 'viral'. This doesn't exist on the Fediverse. A Favorite / Like is just a heads-up to the author, who sees it as a notification. So boosting is what's needed to spread posts to other people's timelines.
