Hallo! Iam putting together this repository of materials that we can use to post on the event page and our edgeryders as well as our individual social media channels - to give would be participants a sense of what we are exploring. As well as entry point to join various relevant discussions already happening in different parts of the platform. I am updating it continuously but I thought it is good to post what is there already and add so we can start already…

- Social Media is Broken - Let’s do better: Social Media is broken, let's do better! - #7 by JollyOrc “If the platform caters to just one type of audience, and centers around a specific interest or topic, that informs the audience directly on how to behave. And people can lurk before participating, so they follow the existing examples. With an open and global platform, it is a lot harder to set these existing examples, because one does not know, with which subset the new member will interact first, nor with which topic. Good UX guides them, informs the newbies about the presets and their reasoning, and so on.”
- What does it mean to build a human centric internet and who is doing it? What does it mean to make a human-centric Internet, and who is doing it? " The builders of Scuttlebutt started from the sort of human community they wanted to build : open to the underprivileged, solving basic social connectivity problems while staying away from surveillance capitalism, etc., and on those basis they are making all their technical choices , right down to the editor. As they do that, they discover and exploit sources of economic efficiency (“underprivileged audiences are less demanding, easier to serve with open source tech”). They ended up with a very different product from the ones they are seeking to replace, and with a very different community."
