Bonfire is proud to be one of these first two projects, alongside #Emissary by @npub17gq5...8hhz We think #E2EE should simply be the default for any private communications, and we’re especially thrilled to bring private, trusted collaboration to the fediverse. #JustBetweenUs #Privacy #Encryption #SocialWeb

 Endless thanks to everyone who supported us already! Let’s show what open and caring federated networks can achieve! 💜🌱
Several people asked if our artwork, such as the print we offer as a crowdfunding reward, is AI-generated. It’s not. It’s an original work by Rocco Lombardi, the artist behind the Bonfire icon and much of our other illustrations, hand screen-printed by BeeInk, a social print studio in Belluno, Italy. Grab one and support the development of federated groups in Bonfire https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/bonfire/community?refcode=z7GlRjmsVk-Sd6u_HpbKvw And it looks great on your wall too. Here’s @npub108sz...tznn print ❤️ image
Good news everyone! We hit our first milestone: maintenance is 100% funded. Thank you all ❤️ Next up: unlock the stretch goal to co‑design federated groups: community‑owned spaces to organise across the fediverse, with no server or platform lock‑in. Read about why this matters and how it can empower communities:

Do you want to help people escape Big Tech and join the open social web? We need help to boost the Bonfire campaign. With #GivingTuesday momentum is on our side, but most people stuck on enshitified platforms only see content from people still active there. If that's you, pick a template below (or write your own) and post it anywhere you have reach: Facebook (incl groups), LinkedIn, Twitter, email lists, Slack/Discord. Every share brings us closer to an open community‑governed internet. Thanks!
Back the campaign to unlock Federated Groups! Self-governed groups with their own rules, roles & shared moderation across servers. Interoperable with PieFed, Mbin, Mobilizon, Friendica, etc. Co-designed with @npub1cr88...dnek, @npub1tms5...w47k and communities such as activist collectives and research organisations to reimagine groups when communities own their tools, can set rules, moderate spaces, and connect beyond single servers.

Meet @npub1qgsg...gtnv and Lee: Buy Nothing group admins co-designing our Mutual Aid Networks stretch goal. Their video and article reveal why gifting communities need more than "Facebook groups but federated", they need infrastructure built for proximity, self-governance, and generosity.
