Today @DigInfFund published my final report where I try to answer the question: What comes after FOSS?

In the report, I provide some inklings based on conversations with technologists working on #permacomputing, server collectives, and decentralized networking technologies.

Many people on the fediverse helped me think this through, both knowingly and unknowingly: @ckelty @Biella @inquiline with their ethnographies, @ntnsndr @l03s @rra @320x200 @Femke @CoralineAda @jwyg @lbngr @kissane @aparrish @nayafia with smart things they've written, @r00tkate with incisive comments & encouragement, and Code as Critique workshop participants including @darius @infinite_scroller  @cwebber @by_caballero @tommi @kaeru @latentspace @sejo.
