Just requested my data. They have noted "Preparation time 30 days" :/ What takes so long?
Discouraging you to do it again.

From the website:
> Synit is an experiment in applying pervasive reactivity and object capabilities to the System Layer of an operating system for personal computers, including laptops, desktops, and mobile phones. Its architecture follows the principles of the Syndicated Actor Model.
> Synit builds upon the Linux kernel, but replaces many pieces of familiar Linux software, including systemd, NetworkManager, D-Bus, and so on. It makes use of many concepts that will be familiar to Linux users, but also incorporates many ideas drawn from programming languages and operating systems not closely connected with Linux’s Unix heritage.

> find a way to monetize it
If only there were a smart way to build a cryptocoin without the environmental mess of miners, but where you earn coinage from seeding videos. I feel like you'd want people to have a desktop client to let you seed in the background then award some sort of virtual currency that can be sold later. I hate to sound like a crypto-bro but I can't think of anything else more fitting for something already decentralized.
GNU Taler [0] perhaps. They are funded by EU grants, and have a funding program [1] going to stimulate the ecosystem.
> We are building an anonymous, taxable payment system using modern cryptography. Customers will use traditional money transfers to send money to a digital Exchange and in return receive (anonymized) digital cash. Customers can use this digital cash to anonymously pay Merchants. Merchants can redeem the digital cash for traditional money at the digital Exchange. As Merchants are not anonymous, they can be taxed, enabling income or sales taxes to be withheld by the state while providing anonymity for Customers.

I've been messing with and collecting stuff like this for many years. Some links:
- On building kind, sustainable software: https://untested.sonnet.io/notes/kind-software/
- Example projects (toys instead of blogs): https://untested.sonnet.io/notes/projects-and-apps-i-built-f...
- Wishlist: https://untested.sonnet.io/notes/things-to-support-my-own-we...
- List of places to find indie content (something I used for my weekly newsletter): https://untested.sonnet.io/notes/places-to-find-indie-web-co...
Nowadays my current approach is:
1) meeting folks via Say Hi (unoffice hours)
2) keeping a separate RSS feed in NetNewsWire called People - this feed contains only the people I've met online or in person
EDIT: I almost forgot, but my partner wrote a cool intro to Indieweb for less techie folks: https://newpublic.substack.com/p/the-handmade-internet-is-ma...
It includes interviews with some of the people you might know from here :)
Nice! You might add Prezi as inspiration for zooming and panning across the live dynamic environments, islands on your everything canvas in: https://untested.sonnet.io/notes/an-everything-canvas/

I don't agree with it myself, but there are people who seem to want to frame "the right to be forgotten" as a privacy issue.
Just one example, but trying to get that revenge porn off the web, can be seen as an attempt to restore ones privacy. Where others should not have the right to continue to peek into ones private life.
