grumpy old man “Pet peeve that gets stronger every year”:

stop replacing actual pressable buttons with crappy ‘touch sensitive buttons’ on appliances.
1. they are shit,
2. they don’t work if you have wet/dirty fingers,
3. you have to look to find them as there is no affordance,
4. the markings explaining them wear off leaving an incomprehensible area of actions

My partner who was my last link to the *non* fedi social media has decided he is also done with Meta and Co.

So, next up on the agenda is setting up my own little Fedi instance on local hardware for friends and family to keep up to date on goings on.

I'm a bit rusty at being a server admin, but it's something to work on this winter!

Any recommendations for small scale fedi instances? I know there are services like Mastohost but the storage is quite limited.

Tillsammans med flera andra skriver vi debattartikel om riskerna när e-legitimation är beroende av amerikanska företag:

"Avgörande är inte bara vem som lagrar uppgifterna, utan också vem som kontrollerar tekniken som krävs för att man ska kunna bekräfta sin identitet.

Om svaret i praktiken är Apple eller Google har Sverige byggt in ett beroende som gör att staten tappar kontrollen över en samhällskritisk funktion."

How is it possible that many ministers of the Dutch government are still on #X, a platform owned by an #adversary of #Ukraine. Let them deactivate their account and become active on #Mastodon.
