Mucha gente tuiteando #YoMigroaMastodon ante el cierre de cuentas sin más justificación que el estúpido sistema automatizado de Twitter que lo decide. Al igual que aquí, en Facebook y en Instagram.

* Guia de Usuarios en Español para Write.freely *

Ange hizo una guía agradable e ilustrada para los nuevos usuarios de los blogs Write.freely, pero todo está en francés.

El objetivo es ayudar a las personas interesadas en usar la instancia write.freely en TeDomum.net, que ha sido el hogar de mi blog. Esta mañana me tomé un tiempo y traduje su guía al Español.

Ahora la página está en mi blog: https://write.tedomum.net/rgx/guia-de-usuarios-en-espanol-para-write-freely

Prefires el Inglés ? See it on : https://write.tedomum.net/rgx/write-freely-wiki-documentation

@cdescribano Vale mencionar también que a F-Droid hay una version Lite de Fedilab, la que uso yo, muy esporadicamente.

Para mí, el fediverso se puede explorar más en pantallas mas largas.

@scarfwitch what a great photo, thank you!!

LOL... 😜

@freemo Not in Netherlands, I imagine?

I confess to having found a beautiful swiss 9 mm pistol, used and for sale at the side of the road in Pennsylvania, and would love to have bought it. Fit my hands perfectly, better than the full size Beretta clone I had previously, in other lands.

They had rifles like yours, very useful if there's a war nearby. Technologically interesting to me, design and materials, all top notch.

But I am glad to live in a jurisdiction were this is not so easily obtainable and definitively never carry-able openly.

@shibaprasad LOL....

I did it. Yesterday even. Seemed a lot easier than my other, on the boiler topic which needs more research, thinking.

I am pretty happy on how it came out, and the Stats show it's been a hit so far.

you have been mentioned and credited, this thread is linked in the post too. 😄

@Vishsai Ah, wonderful, glad you are enjoying Slowly!

I had added Aaditi in Slowly, but she left soon after and hasn't been around much.

You can see some of my long letters in blog post format, here :

Send me a DM if you like to have my Slowly ID, I don't post it publicly.

@freemo I did not want to start a long thread, arguing points we both believe in, have other tasks on hand that are more important and productive.

But, registering an opinion and voicing it, for the record.

The situation in America which everyone in the world sees quite well is how often gruesome shooting happens. The argument for granting people the right to bear arms is based on interpretation of a very short and terse, arguable, Colonial era piece of legislation. Enacted in a time when the future of the incipient republic was nowhere but granted.

I do find it appalling, what goes in there. I do have training and not afraid of using arms; had to get it when living in a location where public safety was ineffectual. In my opinion, best to live in a place where this is not required.

Coming armed to a place of worship strikes me as wrong, disturbing, without rationalizing it. It feels wrong, imo.

We come from totally different sides on this, but I wanted to register a different view. Otherwise people might use some fragments of posts in justifying censure to our instance, I am afraid.

Out for editing my day's blog... :smile:

@realcaseyrollins Ah, thank you for the feedback -- I am never sure if I am posting too many, or irking people.

Glad you enjoy them, I am very selective as there are so many cat accounts I follow in Twitter.

More Cats to come, lol!!

@users The last day new users number is about 3 times the usual!

@freemo Very nice quotes indeed. 👍

@Dave97 Si, yo pienso que si, tambien.

Es bueno veer alternativas para uso racional de la Internet.

Encontré un artigo muy bueno, en Ingles, cerca de eso. Lo posté ahi : https://qoto.org/@design_RG/103181437412519347

@Dave97 Ja ja ja..... 😜

@freemo You are baiting me and others, but arming the population is not working so well in US of A, is it?

Second Amendment was made at the time of Revolutionary War.

An armed populace, specially with full access to mil spec, assault weaponry?

I would prefer to live in a place without such. The fact people stopped this criminal is good, but tp think that so many are armed inside a church. Unholy.

all my opinions, of course, everyone has them, and we differ on this. Most countries do not allow an armed citizenry, and that hasn't deterred protest and political change when things are not agreeable to the people.
