Fediverse Futures
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
- Choose a descriptive title that speaks for itself.
- Be substantive in your comments and stay on-topic.
- Treat others as you want to be treated, respectful.
- Don't be overly critical, we are just brainstorming.
Please read the Social Coding Community Participation Guidelines for more information.

I think lowering the threshold for becoming a member , and therefore gaining power that allows you to influence the organisation by voting on decisions and the people in the board of directors (elected leaders) is the best option, iirc codeberg has a "everybody can be a member as long the they contribute some money", a more famous example is American Association for the Advancement of Science, unions and cooperatives and cooperative banks (another example is vanguard) also work in a similar way.
You could come up with reasonable arguments against any system of governance i think, like Winston Churchill said: “democracy is the worst form of government – except for all the others that have been tried.”
