Not sure I entirely agree with that. FOSS is an excellent example of what Anarchism could look like; experts and those doing the work are the ones who make decisions, but anyone can fork it and there's no actual power being held by devs over users. That's not really a government.
Decentralized, horizontal structures are still structures, but can be fully Anarchist. Anarchism isn't just the absence of structure, it's a complex web of flat structures.
Voluntary association isn't anarchism by itself. That's just a club or volunteer organization. Anarchism specifically advocates for the replacement of the state with voluntary free association. No, your book club isn't necessarily "Anarchist".

Yes, you're partially correct, but speaking through me rather than to me. There are countless forms of Anarchism, Mutual Aid for example is a structure proposed by Anarcho-Communists. People can freely associate and work together to create FOSS style software. I didn't say FOSS was Anarchist, but that FOSS is an example of how Anarchism might look.
