Hi @dani763f

Wow, what a wonderful resource you have created. I love the fact that you used Just the Docs to present it too.

If you’d like to PR to [delightful-humane-design](https://codeberg.org/teaserbot-labs/delightful-humane-design)… it would be a great resource there. I’ll also refer to your work at [Humane Tech Community](https://community.humanetech.com) and announce it on the (all-FLOSS) Fediverse. Such valuable insights.

Regarding Fediverse… I think it has potential to become _“Social Media Reimagined”_, but it ‘suffers’ from the overly technical mindset - as you describe too - of its developers. Therefore at the SocialHub community I am advocating to adopt broader perspectives and attract people with different backgrounds and skillsets to the community. Among others in the [Fediverse Futures](https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/c/fediversity/fediverse-futures/58) category. The decentralized nature of the Fediverse and the way it allows a [wide range of applications](https://git.feneas.org/feneas/fediverse/-/wikis/watchlist-for-activitypub-apps) to be seamlessly integrated (in theory) poses very intriguing UX challenges. I don’t know what your plans are re:FLOSS involvement, but might be interested to keep an eye on innovations in the field and get involved 🙂

PS. I’d also like to point at some recent discussions in our community that go well beyond UX, but are ultimately related: [What makes a humane technologist?](https://community.humanetech.com/t/what-makes-a-humane-technologist/5174), [Values-based social design](https://community.humanetech.com/t/mistakes-ive-made-in-humane-tech/5173) and some [Humane Design resources](https://discourse.opensourcedesign.net/t/humane-design-resources/2324) I posted earlier.

**Update** : I [tooted the Fediverse here](https://mastodon.social/web/statuses/105830430225003013) and [posted to HTC here](https://community.humanetech.com/t/floss-ux-a-study-of-design-in-floss-projects/5175).
