=============
Voluntary childlessness or childfreeness[1][2] describes the active choice not to have children.
The word childfree first appeared sometime before 1901[3] and entered common usage among feminists during the 1970s.[4][5]
The suffix -free refers to the freedom and personal choice of those to pick this lifestyle. The meaning of the term childfree extends to encompass the children of others (in addition to one's own children), and this distinguishes it further from the more usual term childless, which is traditionally used to express the idea of having no children, whether by choice or by circumstance
@szescstopni My instinct is to do something like help it by wrapping it with some plastic material or setup up wind defences... but probably worse / useless / ineffective idea ?
#Question: Saving pages
What is the best format for saving a long online browser page with text and picture (like near-infinite scroll page) which I can load again *offline* and copy and paste text or pic from)
(for example, not saving as image image file as I wouldn't be able to copy the text again)
@ent He can be fun and interesting a lot of the time, he just goes off the handle sometimes. He probably just needs to psychiatric meds to take the edge off TBH.

I'm about to migrate my custom domain away from using Google mail to Protonmail.
I've already added one domain, and it accepts mail from gmail correctly, so I'll assume that I managed to configure it correctly.
However, I'm now ready to move over the primary domain, which is on Google right now. Is there anything I should consider? Will everything just work, or are there issues caused by Google being asked to deliver emails to a domain that it believes it controls? (my plan was to change the DNS first, and once I confirm everything works, I'd disable the domain on the Google side).

@sarahdalgulls Forest of Dean - wasn't this once a place of protest (or still is?)
UK, mention of depression
I think I’ve put my finger on what coming back to the UK feels like. If an actual nation state could be suffering from clinical depression, this is what it would look like: Everything is slowly going to shit; the country seems to see no future for itself; it’s making decision after decision that is self neglect bordering on self harm; quite possibly the most unpopular government to be removed by democratic vote rather than bloodshed is about to lose an election by a cataclysmic margin, and when the opposition, who are set to clean up, are asked what they’re going to do differently, the answer is a shrug followed by, “nothing”.
And people here more or less accept it, because boiling frogs and suchlike, but then you go elsewhere (no, America, not you, sit back down), and it’s like the colour returns to the world and you didn’t even realise it was missing.

Developers don't care so much about spreading google or commercial links and supplying advert money from OUR clicks, sourced FROM Fediverse / Mastodon posts to THEM... (without education our users are weakest links)...
Is that space you linked to not activitypub compatible because it didn't seem to have post link or url not compatible to input my side? (otherwise can you let me know the compatible post link)
If you **do not** want cvecrowd.com to process your Mastodon posts, please add either the custom tag #CveCrowdDeny or the more general #NoBot to your profile.
Alternatively, you can completely exclude your public posts from search results in your profile settings. This is the default setting on Mastodon.

@FinchHaven The thing is that the actually focus was on gmail users - that was the specifics.
So while a mixture of short-hand may have seemed to exclude the rest - it was directly only at gmail...
and then by your offended reply you overlook this or it needs saying as I played in to your reply after about all email not being gmail (I never claimed it but let's not get too stuck)
Other emails are probably less than X% or on the fringes BUT no less important. Sorry to have offended you.
I had a feeling you were a bit of a die-hard which I like, and say endearingly, so anyway no harm intended - not all email = gmail 🆗 fine.
I am actively looking for an answers too for Gmail as it's the core of a lot of traffic and snooping, so feel free to redirect energy into actual answers to that so the giant monopoly provider is reduced.
I'm guessing you don't do signups to others for your self-hosted and other email providers I've asked / typed reasons for simply don't get back to people asking or create it in the end.
@FinchHaven I have not measured how many people use gmail but feel free to contest it :) (so yes, most email is gmail, lol, but not all).
And so this question was specifically for gmail users because people like you don't have gmail (cough cough, do you?)
@foone Almost keyboard twins and for almost the same reason. I bought a cheap mechanical gamer keyboard as a stopgap till I got the one I actually wanted, and kept it around as the "just in case" keyboard. Then I was like...why not make it pretty!!! And then it became my office keyboard.
This keycap style makes me happy in a way that feels like an old memory being prodded. I'm not sure of exactly *what* memories are being prodded here. Maybe the dumb terminals at the library when I was a kid.

#FreeSchool = #Notes #Quotes from #Books #Videos #Talks #Websites all around #DIY Care# and #Caring as our main #Politics / #Politics

"Free School" is a term for a movement born from the 1960's / 70's using educational living & learning practice towards #Caring & #DIY with all others (all at the same time - not an after-thought or specialism in 1 field or person who is a #compartmentalised person ignoring others in other fields). Caring to involves more things, increasingly aiming towards everything...
Posts are 1-line #Notes and #Quotes that links all other things (it's all relative).
Long comments use CW to shorten post vertically and add a 'show more' button to reveal more text if you want it. Long posts might seem bad but it's giving chance to more connection and understanding.
All things towards #Freedom (life moving from Shorter to Deeper thought).
Freedom doesn't come from short-depth lifestyles / short lines of text / ignoring / #inaction. Not less communication between lovers of similar things. MORE!)
#FreeSchool = Learning Together 🔁
#FreeSchool = Working Together 🔁 (eventually + I do Free work for Freedom.
#FreeSchool = Co-Operating & #DIY Solutions 🔁

#FreeSchool ➡ Increment Talking + Peacefully solve everything.
TLDR - Inaction = Fascism
Trust comes from "slowly but surely"... Doesn't have to be all-in, but peace doesn't come from one-way short messaging on 'social' Mastodon either - collecting memes and cats only is limited!
Remember we need develop better humans as well as 'develop' code on computers etc.
☮ Peace needs more... even to save all types of cats!
Get in touch - I'm someone that cares for everything because it's all human-related...
Human #chats welcome - I using #Jitsi audio chat which uses JUST browser (ANY PLATFORM + 2minutes to enter !)
(i.e. no-install / no account / no google / instant / privacy-respecting / safe-enough, etc!) Really the best out there - any platform / device! Instant audio chat !
Just ask for a link and prepare a few topics!
#AltText used (when I remember).
FREE WORK - I do free audio and video editing (anything considered - just ask).
Again - Creating Trust needs a bit of trust given "slowly but surely"... not all-in... being relaxed about it... but has to be more - 'working' like a 2nd job towards peace because your job isn't going to do it / it's now allow by State to get there! War increases prices etc ☮
So do "peace" as a side-job like it was your real job in the world, parallel to the Capitalism (Trap) you (we) were born into. We have to accept that and fight out of that and not be comfortable in it.
Heart and Soul all the way.
