Soil is a context in which things can grow. I see data more as a byproduct than a catalyst.

There are a disconcerting number of initiatives that are pretty much Cambridge Analytica on the blockchain. Lots of blockchain promoters still think a panopticon containing ALL THE PERSONAL DATA, forever, immutably, is a good idea and not a terrible one. https://davidgerard.co.uk/blockchain/2018/03/22/blockchain-identity-cambridge-analytica-but-on-the-blockchain/

I do like the idea of a 'fixed' feed

like that there's people I see and that their portions update accordingly

I love that that idea is so different from what internet interaction is right now

Also, "Sorry, folks … you’ve got to let go of the numbers. In 2022, they are not helpful feedback, but rather a clear warning you are in the wrong place."

[Scott_Jack]: yeah!

this _vaguely_ reminds me of something else about Gen Z's social media use and how it's "anti-design"

<tracydurnell> I don't know what I'm talking about from the tech side 😉 but threw up some thoughts about that kind of presentation from an IndieWeb perspective https://tracydurnell.com/2022/06/10/following-people-outside-feed/
