As the open source Commune-app edges closer to an early-access release, I’ve been musing on the concept of the cozy web vibes that we intend to cultivate in our tech.

Cozy community software is…

  • Safe – moderated; incremental
  • Accessible – discoverable; user-friendly
  • Casual – default asynchronous; at-your-leisure
  • Present – optionally synchronous; in-the-moment
  • Intimate – selectively private/public; closeness by consent
  • what did I miss?
