Helping to build the open social web

Ben Werdmuller offers some ideas for building the Fediverse. I'm interested in the support for communities, better tools for moderators, and respect for users. I don't really care about what publishers need, especially their perceived "need to prove that there's return on investment." This usually means tracking, and I'm just not interested. I'm sort of OK with third party services, but we need to build a way to prevent things like the Automattic - WP Engine meltdown, which to me means ensuring commercial entities that take from open source find a way to give back. An ActivityPub API seems interesting (to that end I have my eye on this Deno project). This is pretty daunting. I'm not at all interested in "Fediverse VIP".
