Sorry for the inconvinience

I think it's bigger than that. The verge says it will create an open social graph IN the web. I think it could have great potential to transform society for the better.
Your explanation makes sense but I think it doesn't convey the full potential of it.
I was thinking the wise person wasnt necessary to join the fungiverse, more so that they explained some things. Like they arent necessary, just helpful. Just like how often people new to the fediverse need some help from existing members to get tips and information about it that they might not quite grasp at first.
Yeah ok, I get that. As long as it optional and not too pushy, I would be okay with that. Just a fan of self-exploration. But asking people can of course be a part of that.
Good luck on the edits! Im excited to read the next draft when its ready :)
Thanks, so far making good progress. Hope it will be ready soon :)
Sounds cool, maybe I will check it out sometime
Right, this is well thought-through, but I will probably stick to my idea of the fungi-metaphor. I think it could be easier to understand for people.
I like druids from an asthetic point of view, although I don't want the Fungiverse to become something that you have to reach some kind of higher state of mind to join. It should be simple. You eat a mushroom and that's it, you're in. Druids could of course just be parts of myzels in the Fungiverse.
Also: if you want specific feedback, id be happy to annotate a copy of the story or something for you.
Thanks for the offer, though right now I'm reworking the story and there is much text flying around. Feedback is in general great, currently most helpful would be which parts are fun to read and which are boring.
Edited to add: i would leave the metaphore to the fediverse as unspoken-- i think the allegory works well and directly stating that it is like this real world thing would break some of the magic & lessen the potential for the allegory to work on multiple levels.
Fully agree, for the new version of the story I'm also going to make a new title without Fungiverse in it. The story should speak for itself.
Really like the town example; thinking of fediverse server as towns is cool. Although one shouldn't overdo it, because that's exactly the point of the Fungiverse/Fediverse: to connect people that are not locally at the same place.
I think adding an additional action is needed for defederation. It could of course be solved by many people concentrating on defederation, but then: what if a myzel has a leader. The members could just defederation without telling them.
I think it would be cool if leaders could be declared by them eating a certain mushroom, which grants them certain abilities like defederation. Of course, there might be myzels in which everyone can defederate. So basically the mushroom-eating-idea would allow more diverse forms of server-governance, which I think would be cool.
Ok I see. You mean this: Glass and Gardens: Solarpunk Summers (English Edition)
I think I need to read more solarpunk in general to get inspiration.
I don’t really understand the question. Normally, I think of a story as emerging out of an idea, and a genre emerging out of a group of related stories.
That's why I'm basing it on Solarpunk and the stories of solar punk. I'm trying to build onto that tradition.
Ok, didn't know that. Can you give me some examples? I know that for example Half Build Garden has social media in it.
Ok, interesting idea to actually think where to put the servers in a world like this.
In the story they’re used by the [netrunners/darkmovers/insert-underground-anticorpo-group] to communicate and post jobs and trade information without using the centralized corpo networks. Then, idk, a Cat6 hypercane in a +4C world takes out all of the established infrastructure and they’re quickly deployed across the ruins to get everyone back online.
This sounds very punky, anti-authorative. I was more thinking about the different communities that would develop if social networks work for building them instead of destroying them.
Yup
