I don't want to start shit, but what is a "hopefully not-for-profit" corporation, and why do we think that's interchangeable with a foundation?
What would be the relationship between, the foundation, corporation, dan, and the apps? What would the foundation's charter be? In what jurisdiction? Who would run it?
I would like these projects to succeed, and be long term stable components of the fediverse. Why does this stuff always feel so improvised?
@jenniferplusplus yeah, this feels sketchy. The most charitable reading is that he has no idea what he’s doing nor talking about, and didn’t bother to ask anyone running any of the bigger fediverse instances what they’re doing either.
@jonathankoren right? They hachyderm crew are so eager to share their experience. I feel like SFBA is, too. And any of a dozen others.

It inspired me to define the #OneManArmy social experience design anti-pattern.
Related.. I stopped considering #FOSS as a workable concept, other than idk licensing talk. Instead use #SOSS for Sustainable open social software / systems / services. Which are projects that properly address relevant aspects of their #FSDL, their Free software development lifecycle that prescribe #sustainability-first and at all times.
E.g. post no Zuck open letters before that.
