  • I think it would work nicely if each public university had their own instance. Since it’s government owned, it would be illegal for them to censor other scientists. I guess if the public university web was big ebough, they could make private universities and other institutions agree to be censorship free, plus moderation would be transparent and in the open. Not sure how moderation would work exactly, it should be fairly self regulating if users are exclusively credentialled experts with real names attatched to their accounts.














  • I just bought a domain name yesterday with plans to create an instance for my local county. My killer idea is to have a comminity in the instsnce called “the good old days” where older folks can post their stories. I noticed that is a popular thing on facebook. The instance will not be federated as I don’t want anything but content which is relavent to the county. It should be somewhat self regulating given the topic limitations. I probably won’t even mention federation unless someone else wants to make an instance specific to a certain town or something. Just a way to filter out all the noise on facebook where people can see all tge different news outlets and events from accross the county without being filtered by fb et al.
