Are there any good open-source community-made models that aren’t owned by corporations or at least owned by a Non-Profit/ Public Benefit Corporation?

Everyone needs to learn about Open-Source, Community-Made stuff, & more useful terms to know

If we all slowly nudge, & inspire to do the same then it’ll create a domino effect. Gotta keep growing

Let’s all just make new companies that are unionized-cooperatives bringing all our coworkers into them

In this example that CEO isn’t needed

Alright here

• Reddit➡️Lemmy
• Twitter➡️Bluesky
• Discord➡️Revolt

https://revolt.chat/

Its an even better thing than Discord.

(They have an alternativeto.net entry that explains a lot more about them too. Also, AlternativeTo is a great resource to find more open-source (But you have to check online if it’s community-made or corporation owned) platforms/apps/websites/etc to switch to. Recommend using that too)

Positives:

• Values Privacy, Community, Collaboration, Discussions, & Freedom
• Open-Source
• Community-Made
• Allow you to have different profile pics per community you are in
• Can use bots without needing Premium
• There’s more once you use it to experience it and read their site

I say we make a U.S. Server on there to inform each other, inspire each other, take action, collaborate, & coordinate

That would be a great way for all of us to really get things going in real life & online. Also, to have different sections of the server dedicated to various issues:

• This whole mess with GOP fighting back on every level
• Making Protests Fun, & Effective. Connecting Social Events to Them, & having Goals for Each Protest (Get to know others to work with, building out better infrastructure, gettings things done, etc)
• Homelessness
• Walkable/social/fun/bikeable/transit infrastructure for cities and towns
• Building and Maintaining Community
• Collaboration with Allies
• Etc Etc

I would do it but don’t know how to run a community, & server

Bluesky, Lemmy, Revolt, Ghost, Spark, & Flashes apps. Diaspora, Zen Browser, & Raindrop too

Those each cover a different aspect that will empower everyone. We need a US Community on Revolt too not just Lemmy

PostmarketOS can’t happen fast enough

LineageOS, & GrapheneOS hopefully will still be good for now

No worries

And found this vid recently seems helpful

Its about the CEO of Bluesky:

Yup plus the European Union is making their alternative to launch in a year or 2

Genuine Question: What do you think of ATProtocol and the apps for it: Bluesky, Spark, Flashes?
