2025-06-11 Fediversity developer sync

  • @kiara has been updating the project proposal to reflect current ideas

  • @niols got the full integration test for deploying via the panel to pass

  • @kiara and @fricklerhanderk continued editing the adjustments to the project proposal

    • @kiara: whether/how to concentrate on external contributors (and if so, how to sensibly reflect that in a key result)
    • @kiara: whether keeping the fediverse in even helps communicate our mission, considering fediversity could not fix the fediverse if we wanted to (given speed of adoption imo def isn't about self-hosting)
  • @fricklerhandwerk incorporated discussion results into the writeup
