Free Software needs many things, such as a focus on diversity, a more deliberate way to fund itself without depending on corporatism, and increased interest in other human factors like accessibility.
I believe that coops can be helpful to deliver improvements on those fronts.
If you know about #OMEMO #Briar #Ring and #Tox you should have a look at #autocrypt
Not only because it is making #PGP "usable", but because #DeltaChat builds on top of it and turns the broadest network possible (YES E-MAIL !!!) into your favorite chat application.
Very promising.
SO. NOT. SURPRISED.
#Github does not like my browser. 🤢
I learned a new word today: Kyriarchy

What if? – everybody adds a valid NSA address as CC to every outgoing mail... #whatif #justathought
102% to fund #PeerTube v1.
Y'all are wonderful crazy people: THANK YOU!
Now, we have 12 days left to realize our most crazy dreams for PeerTube: https://www.kisskissbankbank.com/en/projects/peertube-a-free-and-federated-video-platform/wall#100-vous-venez-de-donner-un-avenir-a-peertube-mais-lequel
@cwebber @deadsuperhero @kibi Ahah good question ^^ I don't think we'll support other media types like music for example, because it adds a lot of extra work whereas other software do the job very well with with an interface adapted to the media (like Funkwhale for example). But since youtube launched youtube music, maybe we should develop peertube music too? :p
Hi @harry7 ! 😀
Wow how is that even possible: my internet provider sent me an easter-themed email that shows up in Thunderbird like this:
Hey #FreeSotfware lovers!
We need you to help us grow #PeerTube into the YouTube alternative it can become.
Spread the word about #JoinPeertube https://joinpeertube.org, and fund the development of important features on https://frama.link/joinpeertube
Hm, #Github being swallowed by #Microsoft does not bode well for #jekyll or #atom either ... a shame.
Good bye #Github. I was on my way out anyway – account deleted.

"The LocationSmart scandal is bigger than Cambridge Analytica. Here’s why no one is talking about it.
Wireless carriers are sharing your real-time location with shady third parties—and a bug lets anyone use that data to track you."

Check out my (~15m) talk at @opendevconf@twitter.com where I explain why it's critical that free/libre/open source software projects shouldn't rely on proprietary tools: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_nK6nP_RCY
It's a talk version of https://mako.cc/writing/hill-free_tools.html from 2010. Sadly still relevant.
Unity is gone, now #Ubuntu runs a new poject: Uniti
You have to admit Ubuntu is a great font.
As a designer little things like that get me: When your logo & name is all about circle & square, better don't make it a rectangle & oval.
Awesome organization nevertheless:
