We could have:
1. Countless local networks, many overlapping with each other.
2. A larger network of networks to allow for cross-network collaboration.
This *is* a design pattern we have seen work well in the past with email and Matrix. These platforms often function as networks of networks, allowing communities within them to have control over their own smaller networks but still allowing users on different providers to interact with each other seamlessly.

As I always remind people: when you're making Bonsai it's the trunk which is most important because in Bonsai we are trying to create tree like images and trees have trunks shrubs do not have trunks.
So as soon as you start showing the trunk it begins to look tree, like so. I will concentrate on this side which is a front and keep showing the trunk as much as possible.

Human memory is squishy, and that's great. You retain facts + feelings that help you make future decisions and everything else is integrated into smaller and smaller summaries until it fades away entirely. I spent years clinging to every experience wanting not to forget anything, and being horrified when I couldn't remember. I documented everything. I wanted my memory to work more like infinite dropbox storage and less like a tool, evolved over millions of years, to keep me safe and making good choices.
