@jeremiah there were gratis platforms (and software and so on) before VC-funded startups became parasites on the value their users create -

@bob do you think it's viable to build a mobile app that fulfills all the major functions of a #Hubzilla server? -

@bob one strategy for reversing this is allowing mobile device to be used as servers, a la the #Hubzilla grid/ #NomadicIdentity approach -

@bob I remember fearing a time when ordinary folk could no more imagine setting up a webserver than they could a TV transmitter *sigh* -

@natecull also shows that even a "radical left" policy like UBI is more market-based approach than returning to commons-based infrastructure -

What if network platforms were developed by not-for-profts (eg Wikipedia, Mozilla) or coops owned by users/ workers (#OpenCooperativism)? -

Could it be because selling users' attention to advertisers is (so far) the only way for venture capitalist to profit from network tech? -
