In my toot yesterday I used "App" as example, as that's the dominant way we think about the software we build. A very overloaded concept, #FOSS apps functionality is highly influenced by the dev process that creates them: mostly ad-hoc issue-driven design-by-consensus. Which naturally finds a more tech-oriented audience, based as it is on code forge tooling.

#SocialExperienceDesign covers the entire lifecycle of a Solution and how it interacts with other solutions.

Say, we have a real-world "Person" who interacts with software, let's call this "App".

Person --> App, right?

Why then..

Person ~> User --> App?

What is this abstraction suddenly popping up? It is a concept owned by "Dev" to say this is how I expect you to be..

Person ~> User <-- App

To the deadly 7 #UX sins of the #ActivityPub #Fediverse listed by @tchambers I'd add the cardinal sin:

"What are we building actually?"

The free and #commons-based fediverse grows organically, like a beautiful garden. Social web technologies can only emerge and evolve by #CommonsParticipation, crafted by many people with love and the joy of coding, while exploring realms of creation.

Joyful creation is where #fediverse allows us to ✨ social code the social code together.

If you are interested in #SX then you might peek at Social coding commons forum now and then. Or join the Social experience design matrix chat.

discuss.coding.social

Like the Delightful commons lists our former "social coding movement" is slowly repositioning to further evolve. This commons grows by emergent force supplied by commons participation, many folks adding their 2cts over time.

Nice to get acquainted on fedi at least. I'm off to 😴 now as I realize it is CEST over here :)

πŸ’ƒπŸ•Ί Personal social networking

Social experience is uniquely personal, social networking starts with us. A social web supportive of real people allows us to roam freely, to express ourselves, and be with whom we want to be. From global public square to intimite inter-personal relationships, our fediverse must support whom we actually want to be, in connection with those around us. πŸ’ž

πŸ’ͺ People. Be in control and free.

@anders @wjmaggos

What works very well is making comparisons to the offline world. Here we are a 'single-threaded' individual that walks their own timeline, who enters a global square when there is a need and just as seamlessly weaves into different social contexts where other social networking use cases play out, for different audiences.

This approach is what Social experience design or #SX explores for patterns & practices of its design method.

The objective of Social experience design is to deliver solutions that match 'stakeholder' needs. This includes needs of the people developing the software. #SX has a sustainability-first focus and instead of "FOSS projects" refers to #SOSS initiatives. Sustainable open social systems / software / solution / services. Projects that address the relevant aspect of their #FSDL, the end-to-end Free software development lifecycle.

To add #social layers, beyond #technosphere.

> Still nerd territory [..] #ActivityPub the (still mostly unfulfilled) binding of digital society

Indeed. AP is a network communication protocol for social networking. Something that sits very low in the tech stack.

Fedizens of the future shouldn't even be aware that this open standard protocol is at work deep down in the #technosphere.

Only then can we address "society" and build solutions that address needs in the #sociosphere. This has my focus re: Social experience design, #SX

Diagram showing 3 elipses contained within each other. The innermost one is 'Developer experience' where focus is on technical systems. Surrounding that is 'User experience' focused on delivery of socio-technical platforms. Finally surrounding that is the overarching approach of Social experience design with a focus on socio-cultural solutions. The by-lines below state "Welcome to Social coding commons" and the scope of SX which involves its 3 perspectives along which it scales: Individual needs --> Inter-personal relationships --> Societal imprint.

Welcome social coder. Let's focus on social experience design in order to cocreate socio-cultural solutions that scale from individual needs to our inter-personal relationships in order to leave 'societal imprint'.

#SX is a natural extension to #DX and #UX that goes beyond technical systems and socio-technical platforms. SX unites sociosphere and technosphere to add missing social layers of the open social stack to our fediverse.

We are a commons. We are people. We are in control. We evolve. ✊

#ThoughtProvoker :blobhyperthink:

In an analogy to cell biology, does #FOSS represent primordial soup? Or does it form organisms, with organs and skeletons that evolve? Is it maybe even an intelligent organism, aware of the world? Is a single FOSS project an autonomous cell, involved in protein exchange with its environment to sustain itself? Or is more like RNA viral matter, used for good and bad purposes, gratis. #sx

@axbom oof!

But this is my criticism of #UX .. it focuses on the business, their products and the 'users'. If AI is the business, then UX will go all-in.

This is among reasons why I am focusing on Social experience design instead, #SX ..
