Start time where you are: Your time zone couldn't be detected
Evan Henshaw-Plath (Rabble) and Nathan Schneider will discuss decentralized social networks and their future role in public discourse. Both are veterans in the decentralized space, and in the wake of Elon Musk’s acquisition of Twitter, their experience and thinking has become especially salient. We will discuss the technology of decentralization and differing philosophical approaches.
Some of the questions we’ll discuss:
- What are the affordances?
- What are core features and usability problems?
- How do we deal with moderating the worst aspects of the Internet?
- Is the lack of centralized control likely to be net positive or negative, under what circumstances, and for whom?
