@blaine Why do you think email is broken? It's working great for me! There's such a huge ecosystem or email tools that any broken area that I can think of probably has a half dozen solutions already available.
Lenovo is running a pretty good deal atm on a Fedora Linux Laptop. So if you are in the market for a new laptop be sure to check it out. https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/d/deals/laptops/ #fedora #linux
@fluffy It's not diverse though, it's homogenous.
@fluffy Based on the amount of green in the 2022 map you posted. There's only a little web browser diversity left it would seem.
@laura_carlson Cool, thanks!
@fluffy I guess we've just about lost all web browser diversity. :(
@jeff Why not the whole Fediverse?
@mikebaz He was really great.
@philnickinson Same. Also don't forget the RED Hydrogren disaster of a phone from someone who really thought he could do phones.
@rysiek If all servers used TLS enforced by DANE would that mitigate most of the metadata leak potential? Except the IPs of both ends, right? Does Matrix or XMPP federate without exposing IP addresses?
I hate it when I see #UX #Designers imply that good design caters only to the majority and ignores the minorities. Good #design should be #inclusive and accommodating to #diversity.
@andrewstroehlein Here are some orgs with their own servers: https://social.sfconservancy.org/users/conservancy

@andrewstroehlein I think it depends on how professional you want the org to look. For example, would you run a business using email accounts with AOL.com or Gmail.com domain names? Using your actual domain for social network, email, and WWW gives the org a lot more validity.
@Gilgongo @PavelASamsonov So we shouldn't have those image description fields in Mastodon for the tiny percentage of blind people then? I kind of want to support minorities even if it's annoying.

@SomeGadgetGuy Yeah, up until a month ago it was a very different vibe.
@SomeGadgetGuy I'm excited that this network of social networks run by society itself is gaining steam. Most people are really nice here too.
@SomeGadgetGuy Yay, welcome to the Fediverse!
