The Open Media Network (#OMN) is a collective that builds and hosts standards-based social/political software. We work toward a #KISS and #4opens grassroots web of trust. Keeping it human scale, we outline a human-understandable workflow used to then develop apps for real world use. We are agnostic with regard to the underlying technology and programming, as long as it is #4opens based.

The project came out of us fedivers "cats" outreaching #ActivityPub to the EU and from our work with on the ground horazonatl protest movements. We have been increasingly become frustrated with a digital hole in so many places that this code could fill; it's time to make it happen.

As a socal codeing project the #OGB is not a traditional top down fight for power like the #mainstreaming agenda. Rather, it is a bottom-up grassroots fight for sharing power, as found in many of the 20th century social movements that acturly created the best of the current mainstream.

The major advantage of "governance" within the fediverse, is that there is none. This is a good thing. The major advantage of "governance" within the fediverse, is that there is none. This is a good thing.
Yet the fediverse is in need of "governance" if it is to become part of our #openweb based society - we simply need to redefine what it is to govern and be governed.

The Fediverse comes from the "cats" of libertarianism and to a lesser extent anarchism without the (O). In this, we mustn't think how to fit into current working practices and current economics. Those who _push_ "common sense" solutions to problems of "governance" within the fediverse are in fact a part of the problem, rather than a solution that has a chance of succeeding.
