This morning in #Amiko, the community #RailsFork:

  1. 138 people now in the Matrix space at https://matrix.to/#/#amiko:matrix.org

  2. We've had success in running some major #Rails apps on experimental forked versions of both rails and railties, and at running our equivalent of rails new.

  3. We're building community governance using Sociocracy: https://sociocracy30.org/

  4. Work progresses on website, brand, and determining a non-placeholder name

This is happening, and we need YOU!

I am ashamed of the fact that I’m stuck on #Rails because of the sunk costs of what I’ve already built, as are *so many* other project like Mastodon. We cannot “just move”, the cost is enormous. The Rails core team seem utterly compromised and under his spell. Nobody will speak out. We need a hard #RailsFork. Now. And we need to coordinate to do it together and build a team. I’m in. Who else?
