Digital gardens are not about creating utopias. Rather, they design towards the small and slow progress of protopias, as defined by futurist Kevin Kelly as “a state that is better today than yesterday.” We need protopias, alternatives, and the seeds of gardens. We need space to dream, and for that dreaming to connect to concrete action.

"there’s room for a different approach. A social network that’s both niche and healthy. A social network that’s more magazine than platform."
the good internet doesn’t disengage us from the real world. it makes us live better in the real world.
