Meet @adrigen and Lee: Buy Nothing admins co-designing our Mutual Aid Networks stretch goal. Their video and article reveal why gifting communities need more than "Facebook groups but federated", they need infrastructure built for proximity, self-governance, and generosity.

We’re crowdfunding for maintenance first: the unsexy work funders usually don’t want to support. Our new post explains why care and maintenance are the foundation before we can unlock all the other stretch goals: bonfirenetworks.org/posts/matt…

🎉 100 backers! We're ~€8,000 away from our first goal of €30,000 for maintenance.

Campaign perks include a limited-run, hand screen-printed piece by Rocco Lombardi, the artist behind Bonfire's visual world. There's also a regular print for a lower price, which available in more locations.

Rocco's work embodies what we care about: living worlds, connection, plurality. Our aesthetic embraces "contamination" and renewal: away from sterile platform design.

"Wielded well, the master’s tools can maybe be used to smash a few deserving walls [...] But like patient little demons, those tools carry inside them the spirit of their making. They twist in our hands in our moment of need and leave us blistered and bleeding. By serving the needs of the people who made them, they resist the greater work.

We need better tech. We need it to be made in better ways and for better uses, and above all, in and for communities."

🔥 Day 1 was incredible! Thank you to everyone who backed the campaign.
We’re just €10K from our maintenance goal: the foundation that keeps everything running.
Once we achieve it, we’ll shift into stretch goals co-designed with communities and teams: moderation tools, encryption, mutual aid networks, cooperative hosting, native apps, and more…

Bonfire Social 1.0 is live! A federated, community‑first social network built on the modular Bonfire toolkit, and it’s only the beginning.

It's time to go beyond microblogging and build apps for community organising, open science, mutual aid, and collective decision‑making. Let's take back the internet with open protocols, consent‑based governance, and portability by design.

Back the “last migration” from closed platforms to open networks: indiegogo.com/en/projects/bonf…

On my dog walk I often chat with right wingers. I pretend I am an ex-Reform voter put off by the utter fuck up of our county council. Then they see me as one of their own, don't get defensive and shouty, and start to question their own opinion of Reform. Honey, not vinegar.


Mirrors should have an "out of focus" mode for when you don't want to look at yourself clearly. Ideal for morning grooming with a bad hangover, or just for when you're sick of the sight of yourself.

If middle aged wankers were to stop buying vinyl copies of albums they already own in four different formats - including the original vinyl - then all the problems of plastic straws would be offset and we could ditch those paper shites that have been forced on us

Vinyl records are a drop in the bucket and an item that is much less likely to end in a landfill. Crab bucket mentality.

Any #Wordpress experts able to help me figure out how to change the og:image for the IFTAS blog? I'm using the Nook theme, I have a Site Logo set in the site editor, Jetpack is enabled (.com business plan).

I have a 1200x630 image ready to use, but nowhere to set it - looks like instead there's a pre-determined auto-created image from s0.wp.com and nowhere to change it.

I cannot not edit the theme nor functions directly (hosted service), and I prefer not using a bloated plugin...

in reply to Matthias Pfefferle

@pfefferle I'm on mobile, but can check tomorrow too. If the OG tags are coming from Jetpack, this filter is likely a fair place to start. developer.jetpack.com/hooks/je…

I assume that the craft bottom right is "us" and the Evil TV Remote Craft are invading aliens? Even the "us" one is pretty futuristic, and its weapon for some reason is mounted at the rear, firing forward.

Back then there were no conventions for this kind of thing.

Oh, so this is a thing in other languages as well? We had a colleague in our company who often ended his sentences with "Fragezeichen" (the German word for "question mark") and I found it really weird.

Is there any logical reason doing so?





With less than a week to go, let's see which platforms are responding to the Annual Fediverse Survey

To help make the graph readable, Mastodon, with 59 entries, is not included in the visual. Any platforms with only one response have been excluded (13 total).

Data in alt text.

Not participated yet? The survey takes 5 to 10 minutes, jump in:
