I thought about this already for a while and with Lemmy and Mastodon the opensource community has a place to really try itself out and coordinate. Then even things like open-source planning-systems (like at Amazon) and AIs are possible.
At least in Germany there is currently no really political movement that could be described as left-libertarian at least seriously. Maybe the Fediverse could be the root for something like that.
Or will the Fediverse will become more like the new landscape of the internet, which encompasses everything and in which every party will need to move and have a certain stance to somehow?
All decentralized networks and ways of organizing efforts (such as FOSS) are structurally left-libertarian as that is an politician ideology that describes such as the proposed way of organizing our society. It is literally the same.
Sure, the results of our combined structural and decentralized efforts can be temporarily abused by people not in favour of such means, but as long as they are using them it means we are ultimately winning.
