@gsuberland @JulianOliver I was thinking that if I reblogged certain posts/threads to the collapsible instance, Julian would know to add it to the wiki. Not everything I post from this account (mastodon.world) is relevant to collapsible wiki.

@gsuberland @JulianOliver I think with hashtags, that puts a heavy burden on Julian to follow many different hashtags and comb through a lot of chaff.

I think PM is also not such a great idea bc there is no wider discussion. If I post something about permaculture or a specific plant in zone 8/9, I want to hear from others how well it works from someone in zone 6. I can reblog a post and Julian can see the replies from other growers.

@jblue @JulianOliver I guess? but why make that mandatory for everyone if it doesn't fit their workflow? like, just... let folks post stuff to the wiki if they want to contribute. make the mastodon server optional.

@gsuberland @jblue We'll give it a go as is, build both community and wiki with Masto instance as campfire, roundtable. If folk want to contrib they will sign up. That seems to be happening. It's really important that the terms/rules are clicked through, a filter as it were, as this area of research and practice is prone to attract dangerously individualist and militarist interests and cultures. But thanks for your feedback!

@JulianOliver @jblue *shrug*. this all seems like stuff that could be handled by a rules page on signup, and by moderating content submissions, without essentially turning it into "join my discord server but it's fedi this time".

@JulianOliver @jblue anyway, I'll leave you to it. I'm too ADHD for this level of faff.

@gsuberland @JulianOliver can see your frustration. For me, I will be too busy to write wikis and posting on mastodon will be there best way to accumulate knowledge and good advice about permaculture in a changing climate bc people sharing their experiences in replies that Julian can see. For instance, I can grow dwarf mangos in zone 8/9 east coast but PNW z8 cannot bc of late season cold nights, etc. I didn’t know this until I talked to a guy on here from WA.
