På väg hem efter att tillsammans med @helenaviking hållit en föreläsning och workshop om alternativ till Big Tech sociala medier som kamraterna @Marianne_Jarl och @UlfBrandstrom tillsammans med andra vänsterpartister anordnat i Skarpnäck kulturhus.

Så peppigt med sånt engagemang och nyfikenhet att lära sig nya plattformar!

Vi skapade Mastodon-konton till alla.

@konstellationen fick också fler medlemmar ikväll :)

I’ve been contacted by someone close to the #Mozilla story. They’ll gather some more info and we’ll record an interview to shed light on how this came to be, and what’s being done to try and improve things at Mozilla from the inside.

Stay tuned!

Great coverage on the @osi 2025 election process and what is at stake from Thomas Claburn at *The Register*: https://www.theregister.com/2025/02/28/osi_election_ai_drama/

I don't agree with everything in the article, but, speaking as a political candidate (at least until 2025-03-07 I am, anyway 😀), I am aware that politicians sometimes call the press “the Enemy of the People”. I love a Free Press almost as much as I love Free Software. If you agree with *everything* in a press article, it's probably not good journalism.

If you’re going to be at SXSW, here’s where you can catch me:

March 7, 4pm: “Speaking Truth to Crypto Power” with @brianmerchant (https://schedule.sxsw.com/2025/events/PP1147867)

March 9, 9:45am: “A Better Web Is Possible” at the Fediverse House (https://about.flipboard.com/fediverse-house/)

March 9, 2:30pm: “Digital Sovereignty Is the New Influencer Status” with @mike (https://schedule.sxsw.com/2025/events/PP147154)

I'm working on an update to my 2023 presentation about "the inevitable collapse of journalism as we know it"...because it happened.

p.s. In case you missed it, LibreWolf has just created their own Fediverse account:

➡️ @librewolf

It's a fork of Firefox with emphasis on privacy, for example it comes bundled with the excellent uBlock Origin.

(Just edited it into the list above too, but not everyone sees the edits 🙂 )

#LibreWolf

It looks like i has a visit from the cookie monster.

@tsvenson Kul, jag visste inte att texten var ute! 😁

"Att påstå att vi är beroende av techjättarna är mer av en fix idé än en faktisk realitet"

Källa: https://www.dn.se/kultur/sa-kan-du-hoppa-av-techorrhjulet/

Citatet är @axbom som försöker hjälpa DN:s Kristofer Ahlström hitta rättare sociala medier, och inte falla tillbaka och återaktivera sina gamla han vill bort från.

Vad som är annorlunda med #Mastodon, #Pixelfed och #Fediverse förklaras också bra.

Jag tror också det går styra om allting internet till något betydligt trevligare och användbart. Ännu finns bra möjligheter 🥰

My first post on #Mastodon. I feel I need to get away from US-Controlled media.

Also: @dfri needs someone willing to be its next kassör.

Please reach out to me if you:
• care about digital human rights
• speak hella good svenska
• have any community org/brf accounting experience
• 1–3 hours a month to volunteer

Trump and JD Vance didn’t humiliate Zelensky.

They humiliated America.

A country that once stormed the beaches of Normandy now whines that a wartime leader isn’t “grateful” enough.

Imagine being this fragile.

Imagine thinking this is strength.

What a fucking clown show, what the fuck did you americans vote for

Don't forget there's @Waterfox and @librewolf

Mozilla has deleted the following from ToS

“Does Firefox sell your personal data?”

“Nope. Never have, never will. And we protect you from many of the advertisers who do. Firefox products are designed to protect your privacy. That’s a promise. "

I nuked my YouTube channel. Turns out, I’d rather make shit for a handful of awesome freaks who still read blogs than spend my days begging Google’s algorithm to let me live. If I wanted to get crushed under a machine I’d go work at a Tesla factory.

Impatient for THE AI CON to come out? So are we!
