If I'm looking for someone who is supposed to have an account on the #fediverse but I never see them, and I suspect it may be because of one instance blocking another instance, what is a good way to find out? Is there something like a public list saying "this instance blocks the following instances because of xyz"?
@hehemrin jag ska till Gotland lite senare i sommar faktiskt, ska bli skoj. 🙂
Related to this (in Swedish):

That's about how Swedish police is about to get increased mandate to stop and search people who look "foreign".
If you look like a "foreigner" then the idea is that police will get the right to stop you and search you and search through your mobile phone and whatever other personal belongings you have, looking for an excuse to deport you.
I think the article in The Guardian is right that racism is at the bottom of this kind of things.
Interesting article about #racism and #capitalism :
"Radical antiracists argue that the only way to fight this oppression is to build autonomous organisations with the power to dismantle existing social systems and build new ones. [...] race provides a means by which capitalism can more intensively exploit certain categories of worker – the enslaved, the indentured, colonised peasantries, migrant workers – as well as justify discarding peoples deemed superfluous [...]"

Biblioteken kan inspireras av dSam, "digital samarbetsplattform som ersättare för Teams": https://www.esamverka.se/aktuellt/nyheter/nyheter/2021-09-01-digital-samarbetsplattform-for-offentlig-sektor.html
Både "dSam" och "eSam" är intressant, de hänger ihop:

Det är ett gäng myndigheter som funderat ordentligt på saken och kommit fram till att de inte kan använda Teams (både olämpligt och direkt olagligt) och de kör bland annat jitsi istället! 🙂

@vegafjord Computers are tools that humans can use.
As a human using a computer, you should make sure you really control the computer. If you do not control it, you should get rid of it, then it is not a useful tool for you but rather a tool for others to control you.
The internet allows your computer to communicate with others. Be aware that this increases the risk that you get exploited if you are not careful regarding who controls what.
There is no cloud, just other people's computers.
The bus stop outside of the Russian Embassy in Stockholm just changed name to "The Place of Free Ukraine".
