It is very sad , also Kashmir an entire state has been under lockdown for almost 100 days now ! Kashmir is the only Muslim majority state in India. We don’t have any idea what is happening because they cut of Internet on August 5th

@freemo @OpusOfAli Hindus are majority, Muslims, Christians, sikhs are the larger groups of religious minorities who have faced communal violence. Parsis, Jains are religious minorities who are not largely affected. Muslims right now are targeted by the fascists ruling India

Depends on the service. Our git, funkwhale, peertube, and next cloud all run on a customized AWS infrastructure based off of ECS. We also host the data portion and some backups of the mastodon instance on AWS for redundancy.

The 10K donation i made alone would cover server costs for several years, but since my initial donation we have almost dobled our donation fund from other donors.

@saper

We do, just not publicly. Most of our donations come from organizations or projects that are open source and thus use our services.

Its usually fewer large donations than lots of smaller ones.

The members of legal fraternity are sharing in social media their surprise at the fact that the judges who wrote the judgment and the addendum have chosen to remain anonymous.

There is no known precedent of Supreme Court similarly concealing the identity of the author of a judgment in a major case

SC logic condensed in one tweet 👇

RT @Joydas@twitter.com
I think SC has given very balanced Judgement. They said placing of idol in 1949 desecrated the mosque. No proof there was Temple Underneath the site. Demolition of Mosque was illegal. Judgement should be based on Evidence, not faith. Disputed site should be given to build temple

Imagine someone saying that Taj Mahal is the birthplace of Adam. Then all Angels fly and destroy Taj Mahal claiming that underneath the demolished structure we found evidence of apple eaten 'by' Adam and Eve.
After years of 'legal' battle between Adam clan (aka) angels and Taj Mahal curators the government says that the land belongs to Angels and they can grow as many apple trees they want.

To all those who are disappointed with the #AYODHYAVERDICT : You aren't alone. They declared me a human being. Imagine how I'm feeling. #majorfail

The verdict was not unexpected ,so stop rubbing it on the face of Indian Muslims .
Stop making Indian Muslims feel more alienated!

Greatest lesson today learnt is, until unless you satisfy Majoritarian Conscience, as a minority you can’t live in peace. Equality and Justice are just Utopian words.

What a peaceful life it is. No TV with Arnab shouting with politicians. No Twitter to make me go 'smh'. To all the here, please spend your day reading a book, watching Ted ed or Ted talks or just sleeping.

The precedence set by will influence India for years to come.
Implications are wide , especially for country like India with 1.3 billion population.
(I'd have said the same even if the verdict was opposite).
Having said that, We have to respect the SC.

Can someone make the losers stop talking about how we should not be dejected as we knew it was coming. Dude we fucking failed and failed big. Pls keep your majoritarian privileged sympathy to yourself. You were the same ones who wanted hospital or school, now never were for natural justice anyway.

I am numb. Wondering in what fundamental ways this has changed India
