Meet @adrigen and Lee: Buy Nothing group admins co-designing our Mutual Aid Networks stretch goal. Their video and article reveal why gifting communities need more than "Facebook groups but federated", they need infrastructure built for proximity, self-governance, and generosity.

Would it be possible to integrate the existing buy nothing app into the fediverse? It's nowhere near as popular as the facebook groups but could be a good start

@gbargoud Possibly! Depends if the operators have an open API and are open to bridging. (But we're more excited about building tools for true local communities rather than just a central database of offers).

@bonfire @adrigen really cool!
Also, love this zinger about AI, “we love our oceans at their current temperatures, so why introduce new problems for useless solutions?”

Someone changed the URL and now the link doesn't work. Should be: https://bonfirenetworks.org/posts/gifting-with-integrity-federated-digital-spaces-for-mutual-aid-networks/

Gifting with Integrity: Federated Digital Spaces for Mutual Aid Networks

Meet Adrian and Lee, two of the people helping shape Bonfire's future. They are gifting group administrators who've been on the frontlines of the Buy Nothing movement, building community, fostering generosity, and fighting against Facebook's enshittification every step of the way.

Hiti

हिति , in Nepāl Bhāṣā, is the word for a shared community water tap. Even in modern Newar cities, these ancient structures still pour out fresh mountain water piped through ancient underground filters and conduits. They are a place to wash, to talk, to drink, to meet the locals: a nourishing, refreshing social-ecological place.
