One thing I'm really missing here on the fediverse is all the sports accounts. Still gotta get my fancy stats fix from the Birdsite

What fedi software are you using right now?

:boost_rainbow: for larger audience pls

@zkat more likely lulling us into a false sense of security so they screw up bigger later

@dubiousdisc @exalm@floss.social what's different in the Glitch fork of Mastodon? I've heard of it before but don't know anything about it

I don’t know who needs to hear this but “free speech” isn’t what some billionaire says you’re allowed to say on his private property.

:boost_ok: :ablobcatwave: Please boost this post if you would like the EFF to join the fediverse. :ablobcatbongo:

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.

Leighton Vander Esch has quietly had a good second half of the season

@freedcreative@merveilles.town I quite like this because it can be used to include the various open access licenses that are not officially blessed by the OSI.

@jambamkin@mstdn.io @danrabbit@mastodon.social really? We have that now but that's only bc we rent. Definitely something we wouldn't want if we owned a home. Try watching TV and doing laundry!

@lightweight it definitely introduces an inherent bias but is it accurate to say that it automatically creates an incentive? It can but I think that would depend on the business

@juliobiason honestly this makes more sense than any other given reason over seen

@wxcafe implying that getting meals for the homeless isn't ethical hacking

What Fediverse client does everyone is for Android? I'm a heavy list user in Twitter but can't seem to get lists working correctly in Librem Social so it's time to go app "shopping", let me know what your suggestions are Fediverse

How does one put together a portfolio of work if your work is all for closed source clients?

Duhhhh it just dawned on me I could follow any account on ActivityPub here 🤦‍♂️

@yogthos@mastodon.social @freakazoid and repairs are at the expense of the user. The cell phone example isn't quite right bc they (usually) are purchased in the end.

Why "buy" a new tractor if I don't reply own it and am also responsible for it's care? If I rent an apartment but I don't service the appliances. That's supposed to be the trade off equity for responsibility.

@onepict @hypervisible do you have a link to or title of the whole peice?
