FediMTL Livestream

@cwebber@social.coop: Data centers represent a centralization of power. We should be doing the complete opposite, this is what we're working on at the Spritely Institute

Q: how should we grow the fediverse?

A: we should worry less about growth, and more about empowerment of the end user

@cwebber@social.coop "I am pro fediverse but I am more pro empowerment... The majority of people on the fediverse were somewhere else first. Then something bad happened."

Back from lunch I regret to inform that I am not able to provide a good commentary on @catouma@qlub.social's presentation as I only barely passed Grade 9 French. 🥲

Next up, @saskia@backend.newsmast.org talking about building community on the social web!

Fun fact, this was also the original title of my talk, but Saskia beat me to it!
