I'm Arnold Schrijver (he/him). Social coder. #FOSS, #HumaneTech and #SocialWeb advocate. I help foster #Solutions that improve #Wellbeing, #Freedom and #Society Let's #ReimagineSocial and envision a #Peopleverse where archipelagos, built by the #Commons, unfold the #HumanWeb. Delightful Realms of Creation, where only our dreams may hold us back. Previously at: [@humanetech](https://mastodon.social/@humanetech ) Boosts and favourites do not imply endorsement. #fedi22
Nearing 2026, I reflect on all those 💕 lovely passionate people I've met since I joined this delightful commons. FOSS, fediverse, social impact movements. Rich cultures thrive. It proves to me Rutger Bregman's words ring true: "Most people are pretty decent". Same credo I've styled my life around. Fear not dear commons. 🧶 Weave! ✨ We will ignite! 🌞 Bring sunshine where it poors! 🌈 Based on hope, we find solutions. You brought me here today, Where futures are bright, We row mystic fedi flows. image
#ThoughProvoker :blobhyperthink: The (emergent) strategy of the #FOSS movement as a whole is "Make FOSS, change the world". And it worked. 9 trillion of value to the corporate business world and big tech. You can do a lot with that money, and indeed change the world.

The fediverse is a new type of social network that is built by people themself, by adding their own servers and applications, so that the network organically grows. Millions of people from across the globe are thus able to find each other on the basis of shared passions and interests, and navigate a rich tapestry of inclusive communities to discuss and collaborate, and to express their freedom and creativity. #ActivityPub #fediverse

Hurray! 🥳 The last days of #SocialMedia have come. Sped up by an unexpected but uplifting side-effect of the #AI madness perhaps? 🌱 Here comes #PersonalSocialNetworking. According to James O’Sullivan.. > The successor to mass social media is, as already noted, emerging not as a single platform, but as a scattering of alleyways, salons, encrypted lounges and federated town squares — those little gardens. The archipelago fedi! 😃
