in practice, there’s no big difference among the players. They ALL do that. There’s next to no genuine cultural variety. They all use the same hardware, slogans and techniques.

I liked it better during the 2010s, when the transnational monoculture was about edison bulbs and reclaimed wood tables and Instagrammable coffee instead of fascism.

As noted in the conversation, members of the WELL can participate directly, and you can join the WELL at https://www.well.com/join/ It’s the seminal online community, and still pretty active.

If you have a comment or question and you don’t want to join the WELL, you can send via email to inkwell at well.com.
