Alright, our instance's motion to defederate from Meta failed to pass. What's next?

Previously, I've shared a draft Federation Charter (codeberg.org/fenndev/federatio…), and now I've been made aware of another draft "Positive Fediverse Pact" (cryptpad.fr/pad/#/2/pad/edit/5…). It seems like there's a positive general sentiment towards the idea, so with that in mind...

Anyone willing to get into the nitty-gritty of it with me and flesh one out?

#FediblockMeta #FederationCharter #Cooperation

federation-charter

A rough draft Charter intended to establish open standards and protocols for Fediverse instances and facilitate cooperation.

My 2005 TED talk called for an interdisciplinary study of cooperation. ted.com/talks/howard_rheingold…

I taught a seminar at Stanford and an online course on intro to #cooperation theory.

I combined the syllabus with links to videos of live lecture-seminar sessions.
