The state of multi-room audio is 💩.

Sonos & Heos are expensive and don’t offer every type of speaker connectivity situation common in existing homes.

AirPlay 2 is good option, but vendor locks to Apple ecosystem. Source device cannot get too far away from target device, just like Bluetooth. Spotify does not support AirPlay 2 multi-room.

There is a huge opportunity for relegated home audio players and a powerful outsider like Spotify to define an open industry standard and rally.

End of year annual donations renewed for organizations fighting for tech that liberates instead of oppresses us.

Electronic Frontier Foundation / https://www.eff.org/

European Digital Rights / @edri

Fight for the Future / @team

Free Software Foundation Europe / @fsfe

Internet Security Research Group / Let’s Encrypt https://letsencrypt.org/

Mozilla / https://www.mozilla.org/

NOYB / @noybeu

I hope all of these organizations join the fediverse by the end of 2023.

A year from now, I hope…

• for the pandemic to be over—for real, not the “collectively pretend it’s over” mode society currently is in

• to operate a “ramen profitable” business of my own

• to have gained at least 5 kg muscle

• to have had my mental healthcare needs met

• to have finished my home remodel

Stockholms stad (city) has so many wonderful programs inaccessible to Stockholms län (county) residents.

Being on the Nacka side of a bridge to Södermalm excludes me from startup and language programs I would like to participate in.

Too many browser tabs?

Let go of what you’ve already forgotten and never prioritized. If it was actually important, you would have taken action.

Tab Tosser can help.

Tweeting in the fediverse is so much nicer than tweeting on Twitter.

For example, I can share links to tweets and not have to lop off the `s=21&t=QanonBS-6pHNzRJrIUkixw` at the end of the URLs.
