Is computing tech possible in degrowth?

Take personal computing, to start with. Personal computing as it it right now, that’s for sure, for several reasons.

Permacomputing

Permacomputing (as defined here) advocates for a sustainable, long-term relationship with computing, accounting for decarbonziation and the possibility of collapse. It is related in philosophy to permaculture, or the aspiration to sustainable land management.

Permacomputing has retained a strong theoretical component, tough some of its tennets are popular enough to trigger cultural changes. Some examples (based on personal perception):

It is still, of course, not enough. Developing non-tradicional relationships with computing (see compudanzas) is necessary, as well as more practical examples of sustainable internet (low weight protocols such as Gemini, or solar websites).
