I feel like in order to get Pleroma to a better place, we are going to have to:
1. Challenge the existing fediverse status quo.
2. Put community guidelines, maintainer guidelines, etc, in place so as to achieve a balance of power over the project.
3. Emphasize working together over picking fights, insults, etc.
4. Emphasize quality of new features over quantity of new features.

This is the only way we'll be able to gain confidence in potential funders and maybe those who currently fork from us.
