Please boost this post if you would like the EFF to join the fediverse.

In a survey the EFF sent me, I suggested they create an account on the fediverse, so they can reach more supporters and support innovative free software that promotes interoperability among platforms, something they've advocated for in the past, too.

If you can boost this post, maybe I'll be able to show them that there are quite a few users who would like them here!

The EFF is the infamous nonprofit organisation that fights for privacy, government transparency, and digital freedom. Their fight is very important, and the EFF is very special to me. https://www.eff.org/about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_Frontier_Foundation

You can see some of their work here https://www.eff.org/work

In the meantime, you can follow @eff, which is an unofficial mirror of their Twitter.

Can we please, please – PLEASE! not make the nonsensical US date format month/day/year the default in applications? 🤦‍♂️

PRE 👏 TTY 👏 PLEASE

And to all users of that format: it makes no sense, it's counter-intuitive, it makes collaboration frustrating, it introduces inconsistencies and errors... Just stop. Please. Use international standards.
(And don't get me started on your other units of weights, volumes and distances. Bloody hell.)

Boost if I'm right.

the next time anyone #onHere comes out with another “crypto is killing the world” take without even bothering to cite the itemized annual carbon footprint of the entire traditional financial industry trafficking in fiat money,

much less failing to bother bringing up how that trad sector has literally tried, by design (and with help of nation-states), to kill sex workers by severing their lines of access to placing and holding their income,

then i sure as fuck hope you’ve also read this piece in earnest, because otherwise it sounds suspiciously like you’re simping for old-guard capitalist banks and their highly trackable fiat money in an e-commerce world (*even* if you also deem yourselves to be “communist”)

https://melmagazine.com/en-us/story/the-unending-necessity-of-crypto-payments-for-sex-worker

and i’ll keep harping on this while y’all stay quiet on sex workers, as usual
