If you’re outraged about Adobe sending your pictures off their servers (you should be), please know other vendors do this too. That horse has already bolted.

Eg Microsoft Edge automatically sends your key presses in Edge to MS - enabled by default winbuzzer.com/2022/09/19/micro

Microsoft Office 365 sends every photo and screenshot you add in Word, PowerPoint etc (including in emails) to Microsoft 365 Intelligent Services without prompt support.microsoft.com/en-us/of

This is why it’s important to donate to #opensource. Matrix is in serious trouble. If you use open source, you should contribute - code, money, marketing. All of these are valuable to open source. As a small business owner, I rely on open source but I give back where I can. I host mirrors for #linux distros, I write code (where I can), I help other users.

I don't feel as strongly about quote posts as I did in 2018. Personally, I am not a fan, but there is clearly a lot of demand for it. We're considering it.

When people travel to the past, they worry about radically changing the present by doing something small.

Few people think that they can radically change the future by doing something small in the present.

This is the only real time travel paradox.

While following a lot of people can populate your Home feed significantly, sometimes people (like me) end up boosting a lot and that can unexpectedly hinder your own experience.

So if you like someone's specific posts and don't want to follow their boosts, you can go to their profile under the [...] button, and select the "Hide boosts from account" button.

Fixed Tv Series Genre View in #Jellyfin on #Roku. Hoping to have it in first release of the new year when Roku reopens submissions.

Can we please just ban lobbyism in the USA already? That's one option I'd love to see on a ballot. What's a drawback? Overt corruption becoming covert corruption?

Does it annoy your followers if you boost too many messages vs original content?

Okay! 👏

I want to spend the new few months focusing on building an interactive, open source, browser-based KiCAD file viewer.

I'm looking for sponsorship to make that happen, and I'd love if you'd consider it. Here's a link to the details:

As the year is coming to a close, I've started doing my annual "donate to open source maintainers" round again.

We all use open source software every single day.

Please look carefully at all the software you use daily and consider donating too.
Support the devs you depend on!

Thanks @mntmn for letting me try out the Reform and the Pocket Reform prototype at #HIP22. You are doing some amazing work

When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, "Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.”

Our dogs got toys for Christmas, as usual. Leo wasted no time removing the squeaker from his. But I was quite surprised to find a message hidden inside the toy. #Christmas #dogsOfMastodon

People like to sh*t on Microsoft, but I don't see other big tech companies treating #a11y seriously, not just software, but actually designing and marking adaptive equipment and Accessories for disabled people.

3 people at Xbox and Microsoft came to my house in the UK from Seattle, to give me a XAC (xbox adaptive controller) prototype to help test it.
