Intentional web
“You can’t consume your way out of misery, but you can create your way into joy.” – The Minimalists
Manifesto for the intentional web
We the humans of the Internet, promote and uphold the following ideals when it comes to the web content we want to create and consume.
Written by humans.
Written for humans.
Engagement is not a measure, it is an action.
Algorithms don’t direct our attention.
We curate our consumption.
Open discourse is not to be weaponized.
Our feeds intend to feed the mind, not the machine.
Attention is our currency; we spend wisely.
Tools facilitate an action, not a solution.
Intention is the seed for all we aim to grow.
