Someone should write a @bookwyrm plugin for #Calibre. I'd love to create a project for it myself, but I have far too many #FLOSS projects on my plate, as it is.

It looks like plugins are in #Python, so the barrier-to-entry shouldn't be too high. https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/creating_plugins.html

I'm not that enthusiastic about Google, Apple and Microsoft doing away with #passwords as an #authentication factor, because it's one of the few areas left on these platforms where people have some control over their own #security. #infosec https://puri.sm/posts/microsoft-ruined-passwords-now-aims-for-a-passwordless-future/

"LfDI expects schools to offer pupils alternatives to the MS365 #cloud service for #school operations by the summer vacations in 2022.

From the coming school year, the use of MS 365 at schools must be terminated or its data protection-compliant operation must be clearly demonstrated by the responsible schools."

This is how the SA of Baden-Württemberg starts its press release stating that M365 is not #GDPR compliant and it must be discontinued.

"Work is said to have some discrete value that can be exchanged. But we don't need any more work, especially not in the name of creating & maintaining scarcity. What has truly become scarce & precious in this world is rest." by Em Reed.

Other than maybe #Pleroma or #WordPress with the ActivityPub plugin, are there any other #Fediverse projects that support multiple post types/kinds/objects so that one could have *one* Fediverse home instead of 10?: http://stream.boffosocko.com/2022/other-than-maybe-pleroma-or-wordpress-with-the-activitypub-plugin

In France, over a million people have opened a "solidarity economy savings account" that invests in solidarity enterprises, many of which are cooperatives. The popularity of the accounts is booming.

Here is my article about this promising phenomenon - it is an issue of a weekly newsletter that covers existing success stories & exciting new ideas about the future of the cooperative movement.

Consider subscribing, every new subscriber makes me very happy :)

When we created ODF 20+ years ago, Microsoft first laughed at the committee at OASIS, then made OOXML to render it moot, then rigged ISO to make OOXML a standard, then implemented ODF and now participates in the ODF committee and helps fund its work through COSM.

#Bluesky is Twitter's OOXML to #ActivityPub and it's at the "rigging ISO" stage.

One of the most important feature requests we've heard from you is "WHERE THE HECK IS MY #THUNDERBIRD MOBILE APP?"
