Organizing on decentralized social networks

[Jon Pincus at The Nexus of Privacy]

There's an argument that one reason Elon Musk bought Twitter was to reduce its effectiveness as a platform for progressive organizing. Whether you buy that or not, it's clear that the new set of social networks are fertile ground for new and existing movements to make progress.

The question is: how? Jon is an experienced organizer and is here to help out:

"The Nexus of Privacy is planning a series of online discussions and video/phone calls focusing on organizing on decentralized social networks. There's a range of topics to cover, including looking at the tradeoffs between the different platforms for different use cases, brainstorming how organizers can leverage these platforms, easy ways to start exploring, and ways for groups to move as a whole."

There's a form to express interest (which uses CryptPad to support anonymity, which is both new to me and seems like a great platform in itself). If you're interested in organizing using decentralized social networks as a tool, these sessions look like they'll be a good resource.
