The DIY movement is a movement of self-sufficiency. It's core tenet and goal is literally in it's name "Do it yourself".
If every person had the ability to build their own house, fix their own car, write their own operating system and make their own beer, the world would be a significantly better place. we wouldn't need giant polluting factories to mass produce useless products when people can produce all of their material needs on an individual scale.
This movement has made some significant strides in recent times, 3D printing is one of many examples of technologies that allow people to make their own tools and objects instead of relying on industrial manufacturing. This movement promises a future of abundance and freedom from corporations that destroy human ingenuity.
The only limiting factor is the availability of knowledge. People can't make things without guides and manuals. With the modern internet getting bloated with paywalls and human knowledge getting swallowed up by an avalanche of useless social media content and AI generated articles, A platform that democratizes knowledge would help ensure that DIY movement does not die out.
