You are quite the poetic person, I bookmarked this post because of how much I liked the analogies and expressions, I really like how you write!
That being said, really liked your observations and your description of the effects of it being FOSS.
I do feel thought that you didn’t really give concrete suggestions, as I understand it your points are:
take the freedom this platform gives, now it doesn’t have to be decided with corporate interests behind, just look at the community.
the issues this platform currently faces are for yhe communities to take creative approaches to, not necessarily to imitate what is already done since it’s a chance to do things different.
all those that just came in should trust on the people building this communities, rome wasn’t built in a day.
It is more of an inspiring message rather than concrete recommendations right? Not a criticism, I’m just checking if I got it right.
