Get Together: How to Build a Community with Your People
A practical and heartfelt guide to cultivating a community, online or IRL.Although communities feel magical, they don’t come together by magic. Get Together is a practical and heartfelt guide to cultivating a community. Whether starting a run crew, connecting with fans online, or sparking a movement of K–12 teachers, the secret to getting people together is this: build your community with people, not for them.In Get Together, Bailey Richardson, Kevin Huynh, and Kai Elmer Sotto of People & Company share true stories of everyday people who have created thriving communities, both in person and online. They provide clear steps to untangle the challenge of getting passionate people together, helping individuals and organizations navigate the intricacies of leading a community, including: - How to rally the first people - How to get people talking - How to attract new, authentic folks - How to develop leaders and expand globally.The People & Company team reminds us that we each hold the potential to spark a community. Get Together shows readers that if we join forces—as company and customers, artist and fans, organizer and advocates—we’ll do more together than we ever could alone.

Governing Together: Toward Infrastructure for Community-Run Social Media
Decentralizing the governance of social computing systems to communities promises to empower them to make independent decisions, with nuance and in accordance with their values. Yet, communities do not govern in isolation. Many problems communities face are common, or move across their boundaries. We therefore propose designing for "inter-community governance:" mechanisms that support relationships and interactions between communities to coordinate on governance issues. Drawing from workshops with 24 individuals on decentralized, community-run social media, we present six challenges in designing for inter-community governance surfaced through ideas proposed in workshops. Together, these ideas come together as an ecosystem of resources, infrastructures, and tools that highlight three key principles for designing for inter-community governance: modularity, forkability, and polycentricity. We end with a discussion of how the ideas proposed in workshops might be implemented in future work aiming to support community governance in social computing systems broadly.

Folk Tech Futures Workshop & Atmospheric Afterpartea · Luma
Join us for our next in-person Folk Tech event! What could the future look like in a world of open protocols and community-driven technology? What could we do…
After #Atmosphereconf, I'm left thinking... Should we have a working group for protocol-native community infrastructure? So many people I talked to seem to be on a similar page, I think prolonged conversations would go a long way to designing resilient, people-first communities
More organizations recognizing the value, more different communities outside the nuclear atproto dev community getting interested and BUILDING. Coalitions are growing. Big landmarks are being crossed like permissioned data and independent infrastructure. Folks are getting hired. We got this.
