My talk at @localfirstconf.com is up, in which I argue that local-first has a role to play in improving the resilience of democratic societies in an era of geopolitical tensions. I'm pretty happy with how this talk turned out www.youtube.com/watch?v=--Ru...

I was super bummed to miss #localfirstconf last minute due to some pretty crazy train disruptions. I can't remember the last time I actually had some fomo over a conference. Local first is near constantly on my mind at the moment, so hoping to find more of a community on here.
I'm trying a lot of new things as of late, so might as well give this a go as well. Hoping there's a bit more life to this party.
