I believe we need a federated search engine so that we control which sites gains visibility.
@ianRobinson Use the hashtag #AlphabetGemini instead so that corporations dont pollute the timeline of the gemini web. Corporations doesnt have right of way on the fediverse.
@TimMaddog This is a great example of how words are not neutral and how framing manipulates us.
Dont accept the words given to us from authorities. Always question their framing!
We need to create better systems for storing on clouds. Today we only have topdown systems, but this is not how information is structured. Information structure is interconnected.
If I store a chinese song in one location, I should be allowed to let it be associated with both chinese and music. I shouldnt be forced into choosing what it is most related to. If I want to find a song, I should be able to find it just from accessing it as something related to chinese.
Servers should be as easy to manage as clouds.
We don't need cloud fabrics. Our organizing and communication needs can be met with personal clouds instead.
A personal cloud can easily host websites, image galleries and instant messaging.
@aral You keep saying something along the lines of:
> In unchained/free software there's an expectation from the developer that people have to spend time to learn software. But think about the brain surgeon, he certainly dont have the time to do that!
I think it is worth exploring further. Could you flesh out your experience with these attitudes. And perhaps point out how it impacts specific projects?
Everyone should have a personal cloud that they can have on their desk. It should do tasks such as hosting webpages, file sharing and communication.
I don't like the term internet, because it is #technojargon. Net/web is too vague. It could refer to anything.
Your association with other people can be concidered as a web, but that doesn't mean we call the collection of all people's associations internet. Cities and towns are connected through roads so we could call that a web and therefore the world wide road infrastructure the internet.
Internet carries no meaning and alienate us from the underlying structures.
