We are an affinity group run, underfunded project about rebooting the #openweb to help people step away from the corporate silos.
We are an affinity group, runing underfunded project for rebooting the #openweb and to help people step away from the corporate silos.
Currently concentrating on using the w3c standard ActivityPub to do this in a few ways:
Run instances of good, #4opens UX applications for public use (http://hamishcampbell.com/index.php/projects/4opens/)

Development of missing parts of the "fediverse" **[focussed on journalism/ activism ???]** is our current focus.
We use our gitea instance for organising and planning this effort, while also testing it for use in "publishing" content to the fediverse (via the wiki and possible ActivityPub integration).

Active development of an indymedia network based on modern standards, in order to become the "news" part of this ~~network~~ **[fediverse ?]**.

- You can see our talk at the ActivityPub Conf 2020, which you guys provided the BBB video hosting for (https://conf.tube/videos/watch/953de898-74dc-4665-95fb-313042f66cc6)
We are also collaborating with the author of https://epicyon.freedombone.net/ [AGPL], where we aim to rollout an instance as an example of the potential for truly community-scale, local journalism (which may then propagate out into the wider fediverse).

As part of the rollout of a radically decentralised indymedia news network, we need to have online a suite of stable fediverse apps. Currently, we have these running on several OVH VPS's.
The problem for us is our peertube instance, where both storage and processing power are an issue. We put the application into you guys with the hope to move the hosting of https://visionon.tv/ (which is currently down due to lack of space) to a more robust server with good sysadmin backup.
We are not asking you guys to host an ever-expanding project, as the idea is to encourage and facilitate self-hosting, to build local, on the ground, "openweb" communities - DIY hosting, akin in some ways to the https://freedombone.net project.

What we need is a bit of stability and scaling for the year, in order to roll out the test/dev codebases.
Our first ask is for a peertube install to host the videos uploaded by the grassroot journalists. The second stage if you guys are interested would be a few light wight city indymedia news sites.

Yes it is quite political, but it's also VERY FOSS.
