Dues It looks to you like Bonfire can present something for this grants? https://www.standict.eu/standicteu-2023-8th-open-call
A brief reading tells me yes, but I'm not an expert at all...
seems more focused on protocol development rather than platforms tough?
I have a suggestion for Bonfire: press CTRL-Enter to send post. This is usual behaviour on other social networks, etc.

sure, it is already noted down here: github.com/bonfire-networks/...
That's a really good point, @EduMerco. It would be even better if, as well as providing benefits to others* it was also of value to you as well.
I'm sadly monolingual, but I wonder if you can think of things that would be useful in the composer interface that would benefit the person crafting the message?
* i.e. people can filter by language on their timeline
Just as we have available selections for reach (mentioned people, followers, circles, instance, fediverse) and advices about content, we could have a list of allowed languages as an option.
In this way, if it's not the default, the user can specify other.
WDYT? :)

Housing in New Hampshire is unacceptably bad. It was bad four years ago but it's much worse now.

Doug, that seems super interesting and very well aligned indeed.
Your mention of language barriers also makes me trigger another small limitation on other microblogging services that Bonfire could make better: the ability to express the language used, per post.
Many people (me included) uses 2 or more languages.
- If the language setting is in the configuration, there is only one.
- But if it can be set by post, I can express when I'm posting in Spanish and when in English, so people can filter those.

@BonfireBuilders I had a conversation with a global network organisation today which has local hubs. The problems the project lead described could definitely be solved by Bonfire:
- Difficulty in number and membership of groups
- Confusion as to who is allowed to do what within groups
- Multitude of different platforms, some for staff, some for members, some public
- Different hubs using different tech
- Language barriers between networks
We're doing user research for this client and, without sharing any sensitive data, I kind of also see it as research for Bonfire 🙌

Use case for circles and boundaries?
I have been trying to understand Flexible boundaries playground.bonfire.cafe/post... because it seems to be the most visible feature related to Circles in current discussions here.
But I might be more interested in Circles. Any direct doc focused on Circles?
Here's what I want to do:
A group of Bonfire users decide they want to create a new organization of some kind. They select one or more of their group to be the coordinators to form the new organization, and they post invitations to wannbe participants in the new org.
A wannabe participant sends a request with their identity to one of the coordinators. The coordinator then either adds the wannabe participant to the Circle and informs the participant of their new Circle membership, or sends the wannabe participant a link (which could be an capability) whereby they can add themselves.
From there, the participants use the Circle as a virtual group environment to decide what to do in their new group.
Does that seem like it might work? Is it something you had in mind for Circles?
I don't speak on behalf of @BonfireBuilders but I was talking to Ivan about the new design system, and defining circles as part of what he's currently calling 'spaces'.
This sounds like what you might be talking about with a 'virtual group environment' @bhaugen?
Criticism of the word ’microblogging’, outlining a few actual properties (rather than post length), pessimistic
Let’s talk quickly about the term ’microblog’.For ’microbloggers’, publishing and thinking for clout, the term implies that a worthy blog post should be longer. In Mastodon/Pleroma interactions, length in itself can be perceived as an authority argument.Now the usual...

Is the same true of micro.blog? 🤔
