@bjorn Härligt att se ett svenskt tuut Björn. Jag har hittills bara skrivit svenska på pixelfed.se/arvid, men jag ska börja med det här också. Vill hellre prioritera lokala kontakter. Så följ mig.

@purism 2019 > Started doing more things offline and even without technology. Like leaving my iphone at home, asking people for directions and trying to remember what to buy without clouded checklist and reading real books. 2020 > Well, hopefully getting my librem5 right? ;P I will also do more to invite other people to come together in finding new ways to fight surveillance capitalism not only as individuals but even more importantly at the political level.

"Ett vanligt sätt för nystartade teknikföretag att maximera tillgången till privatpersoners beteendedata är att erbjuda en plattform där material från en mängd olika källor samlats på en plats. Allt är åtkomligt från din dator, smartphone och padda. Du ska aldrig behöva vara utan. Om man endast ser till det låga priset och den bekväma tillgången till "allt" verkar det vara det bästa som har hänt sedan skivat bröd."

@theprivacyfoundation I would love something like that! I sometimes search for software at directory.fsf.org/wiki/Main_Pa but they are not really ranking, it seems like more of a very narrow curated list of foss (glpv3 i think?) apps that the fsf says respect your "four freedoms". Cant say if its fair though. Ranking would be good for finding the lesser of two evils when you can't afford to be idealistically pure.

I just wrote some python code for exporting playlists from CMUS to .m3u-format, to be used in my case in VLC for mobile on iOS. gitlab.com/arvidmarklund/cmus-

@dansup About federation: Will there be a page where you can discover images from other pixelfed instances? That would be really nice and I think necessary for it to feel truly federated.

@dansup Great work! I am so looking forward to being able to use pixelfed using an ios app. Also looking forward to increased federation. Are there plans for enabling following and discovery across instances any time soon?

@switchingsocial@mastodon.at Yes works for me as well, but only when you type the exact url (including the https://). I hope that there will be a more human friendly search functionality in the future (not for me I love the hoops of course but for my friends :) ).

I have started to collect unique shops and coffee shops. Those that have not been replaced by some big franchise or chain store. They should not be allowed to spread unrestrained. Just leave the small local businesses alone. I don't really want to get active politically right now, but I have decided to spend more time on these places. Because I'm worth it.

@DuckDuckGo Very nice! The link has an extra html-space " " though for some reason? This broke the link for me (ios/limbremsocial) but it worked when I typed it manually.

@dansup I strongly agree. My fantasy of a future laboratory/workshop has both a vinyl player and a cow. 👌🏻

"Social media, media streaming services and gig economy platforms all use recommender systems to make guesses about what we like by analyzing ours and others behavior. These systems can make an abundance of options seem trivial and sometimes make decisions seem so obvious that we don't even think of them as choices. This is comfortable and saves us time, but will result in the loss of something else."

@Marno Sure! I mean I'm not a programmer and its kind of a quick and dirty solution, but if you want to have a look at it I can email you the files. Maybe someone else can make it into something useful :)
