witchescauldronBecause, let’s face it, look at most tech news today and mutter with me:Utterly pointless. Stupidly pointless. Dangerously pointless. Naively evil. Innocently evil. Just plain evil. …We need to do better in alt-tech It’s long past time to return to the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/openweb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#openweb</a>, and compost this mess making <a href="https://hamishcampbell.com/its-long-past-time-to-return-to-the-openweb-and-compost-this-mess-making/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://hamishcampbell.com/its-long-past-time-to-return-to-the-openweb-and-compost-this-mess-making/</a>

witchescauldronThe <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/OMN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OMN</a> is built on a simple, powerful truth: "This is the Internet."GET PUT POST DELETE –MERGE–These basic actions — close to the core HTTP verbs every website uses — are all you need to create, share, remix, and grow. (From RFC 7231 and RFC 5789.)Then you have the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/4opens" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#4opens</a> which are about reclaiming the grassroots social power of the web: Open data Open source Open process Open standardsNo gatekeepers. No <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/dotcons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#dotcons</a> middlemen. No closed silos. Just people, building together. This is what <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/openweb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#openweb</a> reboot looks like.<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/nothingnew" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#nothingnew</a>

witchescauldronIn the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/openweb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#openweb</a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Fediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Fediverse</a> spaces, it's worth remembering: Many people only value things once they’re validated by <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/mainstreaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mainstreaming</a> sources. This is narrow, blinded behaviour — the kind that keeps the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/deathcult" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#deathcult</a> fed.If you only see value through the lens of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/dotcons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#dotcons</a> algorithms, you’re missing 90% of what actually matters.A lot of the “famous” people in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/mainstreaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mainstreaming</a> — even on alt spaces — are assholes. Not because fame makes you bad, but because climbing the algorithm's ladder requires selfishness, ego, and conformity.On alt platforms, sure, we have "our" assholes, that's life. But our assholes can be challenged, mediated, and composted into something better. On the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/mainstreaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mainstreaming</a> side? They're more shit on the corporate pile.Please, don't bow down to them. Stay critical. Stay rooted.

witchescauldronIn tech, the last 20 years have been a mess of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/fashernista" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fashernista</a> trends and the ongoing <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/geekproblem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#geekproblem</a>, a compost heap of broken promises and abandoned projects. It's obvious if you lift the lid and really look. The glossy hype fades fast, the rot underneath remains.Much of what we call "innovation" ended up as <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/techshit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#techshit</a> - rushed, bloated, short-sighted code that needs serious composting if we’re going to grow anything real. <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Openweb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Openweb</a> dreams have been buried under a <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/dotcons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#dotcons</a> landfill.The real challenge now isn’t just pointing at the pile (fun as that can be), it's handing the next generation proper shovels - real tools, real critical thinking, real spaces for building rooted, resilient, open tech.A hopeful note: some <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/fashernistas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fashernistas</a> are starting to apologize and acknowledge the mess. That's good compost material too. Let's keep composting. Let's keep planting.

Hamish CampbellFrom unstoppable slop, to #enshittification the #FT on the internet mess #Mainstreaming talk about the internet so often completely misses the point, yep, it’s the FT so no surprise there. The actual internet, the one we built before the takeover, is a culture of #4opens protocols, stitched together with moth-eaten mythologies and messy traditions. It was never clean or pure, but it was ours. What this guy in the article is describing isn’t the internet, it’s the #dotcons layer that’s been built on top of that original infrastructure. Worse, it's one we […] <a href="https://hamishcampbell.com/from-unstoppable-slop-to-enshittification-the-ft-on-the-internet-mess/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://hamishcampbell.com/from-unstoppable-slop-to-enshittification-the-ft-on-the-internet-mess/</a>

Miguel Afonso Caetano"From unstoppable slop, to “enshittification”, to a digital world peopled by automatons, all of these ideas have a useful explanatory power. None, on its own, sufficiently captures the problem. The internet suffers from a cluster of disorders, some with overlapping symptoms and causes. I’m interested in uniting them all under a bigger tent, one that accounts for their similarities and for the role of human decision-making in bringing us to our current predicament.Borrowing from the world of public architecture, I think of it as the “hostile internet”. Through deliberate choices, and some unintended consequences, the architects of the current consumer internet have created a thoroughly commercialised, surveilled and authoritarian space where basic functions are seconded to the extractive appetites of the monopolies overseeing the system. And it’s making us miserable. (...) Like the Moynihan Train Hall, today’s internet isn’t really designed for us, but rather to elicit certain responses from us, responses which, to put it loftily, are hostile to human flourishing. The tech companies’ growth-at-all-costs mentality has scaled their products’ flaws and vulnerabilities — and their second-order social effects — in proportion with their billion-person user bases. The hostile internet is a witch’s brew of explanations for how one of humanity’s most important inventions has produced so much simultaneous prosperity, inequality, disruption and social upheaval.The result is that today’s internet seems to, if not make us actually crazy, make many of us seem crazy. Always connected, always posting and consuming, we resemble madmen now, giving voice to thoughts that are normally the province of the eccentric ranting on a street corner."<a href="https://www.ft.com/content/5d06bbb4-0034-493b-8b0d-5c0ab74bedef" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.ft.com/content/5d06bbb4-0034-493b-8b0d-5c0ab74bedef</a><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/GenerativeAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GenerativeAI</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AISlop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AISlop</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/OpenWeb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenWeb</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/HostileInternet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HostileInternet</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/OnlineScams" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OnlineScams</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/FakeAds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FakeAds</a>

Hamish CampbellA letter from the margins of the #openweb All the #OMN projects I’ve worked on over the years, from #OGB to #indymediaback, are not directly about social change. They are about creating the possibility of social change. A subtle, but critical difference. We don’t claim to have the answers. What we do offer are tools, networks, and processes that make it easier for people to imagine that the world can be different, and then help them to take the first step.
