@rooftopaxx we are going to be thinking about shutting down all #OMN instances as the is currently no money to pay the hosting, and outreaching is not working without a LOT of help.
The #DIY coding project is not actually working anyway, the has been no movement beyond chatter on the tech side of #OMN for the last few years, and the #fedivers stuff was set up to seed this dev.
Any ideas for a good path, happy to pass the instances on to a new responsible crew.
@rooftopaxx no timing yet, just a heads-up, will be a full month notice on the actually shut down, but will try more outreach first, and like the idea of passing the instance on to a new team?
*puts on former 'sysadmin' hat, adjusts to a jaunty rake* don't really see any great coherence or mutuality within 'campaign', let it go gracefully. that is all.
@rooftopaxx the problem is the is nothing kollectiva as well, its a problem with the coding of this #openweb reboot, its fading as it goes #mainstreaming this is not a surprise thus the thinking about shutting down, only have so much focus.
@rooftopaxx If the community has not already forged and formed itself such that they will self-support, then it's time to let go.
While I don't see masto as particularly harmful, it and the fediverse as it currently stands is not proving to be one of the ways to solve actual problems.
Social _media_ is useless to most people, in much the same way as news _media_.
We need social _discussion_, or social _cooperation_, social _news facts_ ? and social _tools_ to #GetShitDone
