The Concept of "Digital Garden" Is New To Me
This article says it requires coding but it seems to me that the substance of much of what is described here could be achieved with a Hubzilla channel (although, perhaps, not so much a Zap channel).
I'm no developer but it seems to me that the Nomad protocol would be an ideal basis upon which to build a dedicated "digital gardening" interface -- less stream-oriented, perhaps more module-oriented, with each module occupying something like a plug-in "tile" on a page, capable of containing (and providing a window onto): wikis, photo albums, lists, tables, databases, maps, playlists, books/film/tv/music/performance reviews, discussions, artworks/photos/comics, videos, etc. -- each federated, each capable (where appropriate) of having a comment section attached.
I realize I've just described a
massive project, ideally undertaken by the kind of community which would be difficult to organize in the open source sphere, but surely I am allowed to indulge in fantasies...
Digital gardens let you cultivate your own little bit of the internet
A growing number of people are creating individualized, creative sites that eschew the one-size-fits-all look and feel of social media
