Linux Foundation hosting open projects to protect them from their 'fauxpen' parent companies. This is great, but what if the open was baked into their governance from the start? Bandaid or solution? https://www.theregister.com/2024/04/12/linux_foundation_opinion/?utm_medium=share&utm_content=article&utm_source=linkedin

6. Progress is the ultimate measure of success. 7. Cohesion and aligning is more important than collaboration. 8. Think local, act local, having global scale as a goal waters down impact. 9. Open is a shortcut to trust, allowing others to see in helps us all move faster. 10. Change is a continuum. 4/

Briefly we learnt: 1. Disrupting is instant, building takes time. 2. Change is driven by people, not entities. 3. Learnings only become building blocks when they are shared. 4. Risks are everywhere, being open about them helps. 5. Sharing power gets to more effective contextual solutions. 3/

We know that marginalisation is often a result of the systems we created and the systems we uphold. 'Open' is a great step in thinking differently, but it is not enough, we need to change systems at their core. 2/

Some of the inspiration for the https://www.respairproject.xyz/ came from the lessons we learnt when working in Open Philanthropy. We saw the frictions first hand when good people had to jump through artificially imposed hoops, created by 'accountability systems'. 1/

For too long a select few have made ALL of the decisions about who is worthy enough to warrant support, the solutions/incentives have not aligned to create 'better' - we want to look at what better looks like. Let us know what you think, projects that could benefit, or adjacent ideas. https://www.respairproject.xyz/

I've used FB Marketplace, but only once. Have used eBay and Vinted (a fair amount) recently. Happy to chat!
