@Fox jag känner lite så också. Man är ju van vid att saker är dåliga i världen, det är inte det i sig, men på nåt vis har det gått till överdrift nu. Ska vi ha "jul" mitt i den här skiten? Det går ju inte.

After lengthy discussions with some experts, I start to see a way to define and measure #DigitalSovereignty as a combination of three vectors:
- Ownership
- Control
- Trust
Ownership can focus on data, hardware, software. Control flows from ownership. Who has authority to grant and limit access, use? Trust should obviously flow from ownership and control as the final checkpoint. With this I can start to sort different approaches and proposals in the DigSov discussion. Maybe it helps you too?
What do you think about the current state of US democracy?
Beautiful words of wisdom from @taymaz translated into English:
Fuck iPhone, Apple and everyone else making life piss-hard regarding interoperability.

Också, helt ärligt. Fuck iPhone, Apple och alla andra som gör livet pisssvårt för interoperabilitet.
Skapa en en bra produkt och våga låta användaren använda den fullt ut istället för att tvångsmässigt låsa in användare.

@cmconseils I only follow you because of that one time when you posted something serious. It might happen again.
According to Timothy Snyder's "On Freedom" (2024) there are these five forms of freedom:
- Sovereignty
- Unpredictability
- Mobility
- Factuality
- Solidarity
We need all of them. #freedom #sovereignty #unpredictability #mobility #factuality #solidarity
@vkc go for it!
I think there are enough people who would pay enough to keep that going. Having a decent browser is too important, we can't let it go to shit.

@vkc I think I've never seen a poll with a more decisive result. Where are the 5% who always vote the other way out of spite? 🙂
