So, if I were going to make a tech manifesto, it might be something like:

- protocols not platforms
- coops and unions
- technology should not actively hurt us
- people not users
- seven generations, seven continents
- free markets require antitrust enforcement

@evan @mmasnick oh, interesting! we think, to promote adoption, it might be worthwhile to focus on fallback behaviour, and we made #FediLinks for this ( https://fedilinks.org ). it's mainly intended to improve interoperability between fedi instances and apps, but we've been struggling to gather adoption from instances and we think better client/app support for fallbacks would help push for instance support.
