This is the epistemological crisis we're living through today. Epistemology is the process by which we know things. The whole point of a transparent, democratically accountable process for expert technical deliberation is to resolve the epistemological challenge of making good choices about all of these life-or-death questions. Even the smartest person among us can't learn to evaluate all those questions, but we can all look at the process by which these questions are answered and draw conclusions about its soundness.

@Rollerball :
I prefer using separate software for notes and to-do lists.
So, for to-do lists I use Joplin (on the Linux PC).
For long and knowledge base notes I use Zettlr (on the Linux PC) and for quick and encrypted notes I use Standard Notes on the Android Phone (it's available on F-droid).

Disroot is a project that was born from the personal need to communicate, share and organize ourselves within our circles through tools that met a series of fundamental criteria for us: they had to be open, decentralized, federated and above all respectful towards freedom and privacy. None of the most popular solutions complied with them, but in our search we found some very interesting projects that did. And since we thought that they should be available to all those with similar ethical principles, we decided not only to group these applications and share them with others, but also to manage them according to those values. That's how Disroot started.

The project is based in Amsterdam, was founded by Muppeth and Antilopa in 2015, it is maintained by volunteers and relies on the support of its community. Between 2017 and 2018, a group of members started to get very actively involved and to collaborate very closely. In 2019, two of them, Fede and Meaz, officially became part of the Core Team that manages the platform. Two years later, in 2021, Avg_Joe joined the tasks and responsibilities.

Disroot aims to change the way people are used to interact on the web. We want to encourage and show them not only that there are open and ethical alternatives but also that it is the only possible way to break free from the walled gardens proposed and promoted by proprietary software and corporations, either through our platform, others that have similar values and goals or even their own projects.

We are convinced that we can build together a truly independent network, focused on the benefit of the people and not on their exploitation.

The Garden and the Stream: A Technopastoral

2015

I am going to make the argument that the predominant form of the social web — that amalgam of blogging, Twitter, Facebook, forums, Reddit, Instagram — is an impoverished model for learning and research and that our survival as a species depends on us getting past the sweet, salty fat of “the web as conversation” and on to something more timeless, integrative, iterative, something less personal and less self-assertive, something more solitary yet more connected.


Makes powerful arguments for the garden style web as a means to aggregate knowledge, find connections.
