Salvaging what is good
This post is more practical than nostalgic. Yes, sometimes I like to look back and think about how 'things were better' with our various online anthro communities, but that's not the goal here. It's clear that the online communities our discipline had are not what they once were, whether on Facebook, Twitter, etc.

The churn around Twitter, Substack Notes, etc. has me thinking a lot about what's possible with Mastodon, and what's needed to truly function as a community...

1) Communities are by definition complex places, they are ecosystems with lots of opportunities, perspectives, issues

You can't control an ecosystem. When you try, you create chaotic, compounding elements that destroy it over time, at first slowly then quickly.

Wil je met me meedenken?

Ik ben me aan het oriënteren op de volgende fase in mijn werkende bestaan. Wat ik aan kennis en vaardigheden heb verzameld: (maken en editen) (analyse en engineering) (zelf bouwen in en kennis van ).

When Ontario elected a premier I am morally opposed to, I didn’t uproot my life and move elsewhere.

Online platforms are far easier to move around in, but socially & professionally, they still function similar to a geographic location.

This is how I’m currently thinking about Twitter.

Community Interaction and Conflict on the Web

arxiv.org/abs/1803.03697


"Users organize themselves into communities on web platforms. These communities can interact with one another, often leading to conflicts and toxic interactions. ... We show that such conflicts tend to be initiated by a handful of communities---less than 1% of communities start 74% of conflicts."

“During the BLM protests … I’m really paraphrasing here but [a prominent white man in the community industry] effectively said community is going to be the solution to discrimination such as racism. I actually just responded to him and said, ‘It’s also the thing that’s currently perpetuating it.’ ... The KKK meets up every week. That’s a community.” –Faisa Mohamed

“If a community’s doing something or has become something, it’s the fault of the community manager, effectively. Either you were rewarding or recognizing the wrong behaviors or something else happened along the line. It doesn’t just happen overnight, and it also doesn’t mean that you’re stuck there. ... You’re never beholden to the direction you’re heading in at that moment.” -Timo Tolonen

“In the community space, we have classes, seminars and certifications. The important thing is never to think that those things are going to get you a job. Look at them as something that helps you enrich yourself and adds to what you know as a professional. Because the reality is, if you name any community resource that has [paid educational products], they mean nothing to hiring managers.” -@patrickokeefe

“Don’t be scared of your community. And don’t be scared of what they might say. Even libraries sometimes are. … But a lot of organizations are sometimes afraid of what they might get. … ‘What if 20 customers say, “Well, this new coffee shop’s coffee tastes horrible!”‘ The answer to that would be make your coffee better. Gee whiz, you just got great feedback on a product. Make it better!” -@davidleeking
