A few days ago I posted an open Google Doc here and encouraged folks to jump in to brainstorm feature ideas for Mastodon/Fediverse social apps.

Serious questions, I appreciate answers:

Why would I do that?

Why would I use a centralized setup of the worst kind like the number one monopolist to brainstorm things I can brainstorm right here in the fediverse or other alternatives available?

Why do you want me to hand my IP over to "them"?

Maybe you should ask yourself:

@jesuisatire @jlori I respect that. I think that's a reasonable position. Personally I haven't found a more open-source way to view and collaborate that works well from a UX POV, and I'm not a purist... but I think it's fair.

@elipariser

Sound like you should open and poste an open Google Doc to encourage folks to jump in to brainstorm on how to build an alternative to open Google Doc's.
