Privacy is a human right. A messaging app like Signal is engineered to prevent the non-profit from being able to comply with a similar law enforcement request. Facebook can and must do better.

Just had a question about this, thought it might be useful to answer as a post:
There are lots of different server types on the Fediverse, but they talk to each other using a common standard called ActivityPub.
This means you don't need to be on the same server type to interact.
For example, if you're on a Mastodon server you can have a conversation with someone on a Friendica server.
This works even when the server types are very different. People on Mastodon etc can like, comment and share videos from @peertube or follow livestreaming accounts on @owncast. (To see examples, take a look at @FediVideos)
This process is so seamless that you may not even be aware you're interacting with people from other server types. If you're a Mastodon user, try clicking on @bobfisherphoto and it will look like a Masto account, but it's actually a @pixelfed account. To see what an account "really" looks like, click on the avatar on its profile page.
Is there a GitHub / GitLab equivalent based in and hosted in the EU?
Seems like a massive gap / opportunity in the EU cloud tech ecosystem.
Current options are either just Git (no CI/CD) for FOSS or too expensive for personal use.
I’m going to need the cute cis-het allies to pin an A on their wardrobe for the next few days. Thank you for your compliance and not toying with our queer fantasies. #StockholmPride
Cute straight allies all rainbowed up for #StockholmPride this week are hella confusing.
You should watch “Seaspiracy”. Industrial fishing is more harmful than I ever imagined. There is no such thing as sustainable seafood. And your plastic straw is actually fine.
Does anyone remember Parable ThingMaker, a Flash alternative that GeoCities championed? It seems to be erased from Web history.

“There is no vaccine against monkeypox available in Sweden.” —Folkhälsomyndigheten (Public Health Agency of Sverige)
So…doing anything about that? Can we fund the mRNA vaccine folks to do their magic again?

Hey #fediverse, is there a client that properly deals with Twitter user references (e.g. @jeremiahlee@twitter.com)?
Seems very dumb that Mastodon does not.
Watched “Coming Out Colton” (Netflix) next. The rejection by his Catholic priest and Christian “brothers” is triggering and awful.
You are exactly who you need to be and you don’t need any redemption. You also don’t need a mythology.
I work in tech, fight for digital rights and the environment, kiss dudes, cycle, lift heavy things, and don’t eat animals. Swedish immigrant, US American emigrant. Occasionally shirtless.
