Whenever someone asks you if you are using some new fancy programming tool, just shrug and tell them you are in the control group.

Muwhahaha now I can *send* mail. It is OVER for you suckers now

Jag är oerhört tacksam över att ha blivit tilldelad källkritikspriset Gyllene förstoringsglaset 2026. Stort tack till Internetstiftelsen, Källkritikbyrån och alla er som hjälper mig att göra Sverige lite säkrare för varje vecka som går. Tillsammans gör vi livet surt för bedragarna på nätet.

I am immensely grateful to the Fediverse for all the encouragement I got here to embark on a #selfhosting journey.

#YunoHost has empowered my digital life in immeasurable ways.

My way of giving back - and fighting the broligarchs of Big Tech - is to create a guide that demystifies the process. I have compiled all my posts so far in a single page:

If you're curious about self-hosting but you haven't taken the leap yet, I hope my articles will be helpful to you ❤️

Bad news 😔💔

I am sad to announce today that unfortunately I will not be working with Privacy Guides anymore after the end of this month.

Good news! 🚨

I will be available for a new position or contract, starting in April!

I am looking for a position or contact for:

✊ Digital rights activist (with a specialty in privacy rights)

🔒 Privacy expert or consultant

Fediverse and Mastodon advocate

🙌 Managerial position

📰 Tech journalist

💻 Technical writer

💚 Or any other fitting positions

I am especially interested in working with nonprofit organisations, cooperatives, open-source projects, privacy-oriented software companies, or any other organisations working for the public good.

Let me know if you hear of any good opportunities!

Boy I was wrong about the Fediverse https://matduggan.com/boy-i-was-wrong-about-the-fediverse/

Förtroendet för Nato har sjunkit. Bra. För min del har det varit noll hela tiden. Man kan argumentera för att med NATO-medlemskapet har Sverige blivit otryggare. Men viktigare: att det svenska Natomedlemskapet berövade världen ett alliansfritt land.

We're going to be adopting the mass surveillance shit too. https://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/article/social-media-ban-for-kids-under-consideration-in-online-harms-bill-carney/ #Canada

Pro tip: if your company advertises "private and secure" services *and* you maintain detailed records of your customers' identities, You're Doing It Wrong.

Looking forward to work with #modemmanager upstream on improving dual SIM support in our #LinuxMobile stack: https://nlnet.nl/project/Linux-MultiSIM/ .

Thanks a lot to @NGIZero for supporting this!

RE: https://infosec.exchange/@david_chisnall/116160637051672728

the question you should be asking yourself is not “what's the best way to verify the age of every single computer user on earth”

but rather “why the fuck are we trying to verify the age of every single computer user on earth????”

and the answer to that is: fascism
stop. complying.

“self-hosting email is hard” no it isn’t and you should do it

I did not foresee that the ignorance and stupidity of voters would become one of the main governing forces in world politics. I was way past 40 when I stopped believing that smart, educated people would always prevail in medium-to-high-functioning democracies. I am deeply disappointed and disgusted to be living in such a stupid timeline.

Didn't make it #FOSDEM? @devrtz 's talk about #Phosh's recent developments is available online: https://video.fosdem.org/2026/ub4132/XHPZND-phosh-2026.av1.webm

The talks was presented using a phone running #phosh (beamer connected via usb-c) and #pdfrc .

Hey, you, reader:

Ever been browsing someone's blog, website, repo -- even their social web profile -- and thought to yourself "Wow, that's really neat. I love what they did here!"

Consider telling them! Someone on here made a post a while back encouraging people to do just that, and I've tried to make a conscious habit of contacting the authors of neat little indie and smolweb sites.

Email, guestbook, comment; whatever it might be, consider reaching out somehow to share your appreciation. You might be surprised at how much it makes their day.

You might also be surprised to discover how much making their day makes yours, too.

I laughed out loud at this response.
