[HacktionLab] We can finally build our own media - link to video presentation

[Jay Baker]

Hey Sam, thanks for this -- I'm a big fan and user of the fediverse, including Kbin. I'll admit that my gut reaction to your message was "Ah, that's a totally different thing, it wouldn't work..." and then as I've thought about it more, I've found your suggestion to actually be quite inspired! Maybe an instance dedicated to local autonomous media with each locality running a different magazine would fit really well! So thanks! If folks are interested in discussing running such an instance, let's talk!
