Hello! We're an organization working on advancing the future of decentralized networks!
We're also running a supporter drive right now: https://spritely.institute/donate
But in this thread we'd like to talk about our mission statement! https://spritely.institute/about/

Our mission, from https://spritely.institute/about/
> The purpose of The Spritely Networked Communities Institute is to advance networked user freedom. People deserve the right to communicate and have communication systems which respect their agency and autonomy. Communities deserve the right to organize, govern, and protect and enrich their members. All of these are natural outgrowths of applying the principles of fundamental human rights to networked systems.

Spritely's mission statement, continued: https://spritely.institute/about/
> Achieving these goals requires dedicated effort. The Spritely Institute stewards the standardization and base implementation for decentralized networked communities, promotes user freedom and agency of participants on the network, develops the relevant technologies as free, libre, and open source software, and facilitates the framing and narrative of network freedom.

Okay, that's nice to hear, but what do we mean by it?
It turns out once you start with those foundations of your *mission*, you're not done! How are we going to get there?

Well, we were recently prompted (thx for the prompt @bnewbold!) to put together our technical values and design goals, and we did, also on that same page! https://spritely.institute/about/
It turns out there's a lot of them, so we've decided we're going to go through and expand on one a day!

We've also got a pretty sizable set of core pieces of tech necessary to make said mission and design goals real. Unlike many tech projects which have one mascot, Spritely has a whole bunch of them... and they're all part of the project plan!
So we're going to go through those too!

We realize there are a bunch of people for whom Spritely is fairly new! We figure this is a good way to get to know us, what we're about, and all the cool tech we're building!
Looking forward to talking more over the next few weeks!
