Increasingly, a lot of autonomous projects aren't setting up websites or doing any form of reporting on their organizing efforts on counter-info websites beyond posting on social media.
A lot of projects also aren't posting even email info - moving all communication onto platforms like Meta and Instagram.
It's becoming harder and harder to follow the work of some efforts or get updates - especially when platforms like Facebook and Instagram require you to have an account to see most content on the site.
One of the good things about Mastodon is that you can always log onto our feed and read updates - regardless of if you are on the platform or not.
This brings up all sorts of questions: from accessibility, to the legal and surveillance implications, and also what kind of movement do we want to build, one on our own terms - or the algorithm.
