We’re delighted to share that our talk: “Sovereignty Is More Than a Server: Public Digital Commons with Bonfire” has been accepted for the Open Source Conference Luxembourg 🎉 !
We’re looking forward to discussing why digital sovereignty requires more than self-hosting and how public digital commons and projects like Bonfire Networks can help build more open, democratic, and resilient digital ecosystems.

If you’re attending, we’d love to meet you, exchange ideas, and learn about what you’re working on.<span class="invisible"> #digitalsovereignty #commons #bonfire

hello from campground!

We're running out of words for how shitty things are getting:

• "enshittification": quality degrades over time
• mask-off?: turns out they were fascists (or sympathisers) all along, and they've stopped pretending
• enclosure?: thought you were safe with an open-source alternative? Many are on the same late-stage-capitalism hamster wheel. Bitwarden is now private-equity owned and has scrubbed "always free" from its site. At least it can still be forked... fastcompany.com/91542655/bit...

Shared infrastructure is how the #Fediverse can grow without recreating enshittified platform silos.

We’re excited to share that Bonfire is working with Mastodon on two critical areas of Fediverse infrastructure: remote media storage and automated content detection.

Built around open Fediverse Auxiliary Service Provider (FASP) specifications, this work will help platforms connect to shared services instead of each having to build and operate the same capabilities alone.

Our aim is to make these capabilities open, interoperable, and available for any federated server to adopt.

A big thank you to @Mastodon@mastodon.social team for involving us in this work. We’re looking forward to building together and sharing what we learn along the way.
