NewPipe represents the best of FOSS

SDF.ORG is one of the best spots in Cyber Land. While I maybe self-hosting a social instance or two for family and friends. I can assure you I spend more time on SDF. :-)

If you are familiar with ECHO and PIPELINE from back in the day SDF is that X's 1000. And if you want to compare to panix...SDF whips their ass. :-)

While I agree with decentralization and privacy, you cannot do it at the expense of community. So check them out and check out ANONRADIO.NET powered by SDF.ORG.

Oh my goodness I've just learned a thing about The Matrix that causes it to make a lot more sense: In the original script the humans were used as neural network compute clusters by the Machines and as a crucial component of The Matrix itself.

Which is why humans who were aware of the simulation could control aspects of The Matrix - their minds were part of its foundation.

Unfortunately the test audiences had trouble understanding this concept so the studio changed the human role to "batteries".

Instagram ranked worst for young people’s mental health [0].

I am very aware of the toxic side of IG and look forward to establishing Pixelfed Labs [1]. The goal is to get the community involved in solving these tough issues through discussions, proposals and implementations.

We can build better alternatives if we work together!

Google is bringing AMP to Gmail not for your convenience or to increase speed, but to change your mailbox into a platform for marketers so that the ads jump into your face. Better switch to an email service that respects your right to privacy. 😉

I propose to launch a campaign called #ShareATool.

Everyone can share their favorite #opensource tool(-s) that use on a daily basis as well as other interesting tools for your opinion.

No software categories. The main requirement is that the project must be open source.

And I think I'm gonna start.

2019 is the year of FreedomBox Pioneer edition home servers, Purism Librem 5 smartphones and the growing Fediverse.

This year marks a point in history where people have started to rebel against the surveillance capitalist platforms threatening our democracy and take back control over their digital lives with freedom-respecting products and services.

Bastille Day! Just closed my Google account. They started good, and just got worse. And worse. And worse. Time to go, and now I'm gone!

Just replaced Google+ with Mastodon in the social links section on the website! Represent!

Words are not enough from Facebook or Zuckerberg.

Facebook's business model is all that makes a real difference, and it isn't changing.

What Zuckerberg says and what he does are two totally opposite things.

For example:

Zuckerberg: "We plan to build this the way we've developed WhatsApp: ...make it as secure as possible"

In reality, WhatsApp's creator resigned because Facebook degraded its privacy and security:

Facebook has a team working on getting kids under 13 hooked on Facebook.
