This is a story of hope.
When young I would trust news sites and reports. The idea a qualified person researching a topic and presenting me a structured summary impressed me.
I never bought a physical newspaper. Initially most news sites offered their content for free.
And since I was relatively poor at that time I got along with it.
The need to belong and be a part of this world was real to me. To fulfil that need I read the news.
Until I realised the similarity of different news sites. The consistent and eloquent narratives I read while first discovering news were gone. And gone was the range of thoughts nourishing my mind.
In its place remained a lifeless place, where I would at most starve.
Yet social media showed its true side to me from the start, milking my attention and energy.
Discovering this community has given me hope, that a global protocol for social communication is possible, without being at the helm of any companies algorithm manipulating my attention and thus also programming my mind.
I believe each and every one of us has the right to gain control of the things consumed by our attention and at the same time be able to both profit from the groups consciousness and wisdom.
At the same time I feel responsible to foster this new group consciousness and fill it with the best information I can feed it.
We humans have so many needs. And being aware of those needs has been an awakening to me. Maybe it has been a late awakening, but it is what it is.
I feel hopeful on having found this digital consciousness I can contribute to and learn from. 🌳🍎
Said that I’d very much appreciate any hints on how to contribute and learn from this community.
