I thought about this already for a while and with Lemmy and Mastodon the opensource community has a place to really try itself out and coordinate. Then even things like open-source planning-systems (like at Amazon) and AIs are possible.

At least in Germany there is currently no really political movement that could be described as left-libertarian at least seriously. Maybe the Fediverse could be the root for something like that.

Or will the Fediverse will become more like the new landscape of the internet, which encompasses everything and in which every party will need to move and have a certain stance to somehow?

No, all/most of the cool stuff gets politicized/weaponized and becomes shitty.

I don't think that's right. Lots of mundane things get politicized by the right in a way that makes it very understandable to people who might not usually care why they should care. It's why grandma knows about trans teachers but not right to repair. One side of culture doesn't shy away from educating people or conflict while the other side hopes a cool thing takes off naturally in its own time ignoring how important it is to market ideas.

Yes. It's only the right who politicizes things. There's never anybody on the left making things about politics. Right.
