Fighting words from @molly0xfff's opening talk at the Fediverse House at SXSW 2025:
“We're facing an existential threat. We need a web that serves people not profit, a web built on protocols, not platforms…It's being built right now by people like you in communities like this one.”
Thank you, developers and denizens of the open social web.🙏🏼

“We can build the web we want to see.” @molly0xfff kicked off XOXO 2024's conference with a hopeful talk about building Web3 Is Going Just Great, and how we can “push the web back towards the wonderful, joyful, beautiful place it used to be.” https://xoxofest.com/2024/videos/molly-white
@raph And people wonder why people criticise Israel. It's not a matter of being anti-semitic but rather being horrified of the actions of one people against another. It's simply inhuman.
Datacenters contain 90% crap data. We’re destroying our environment to store copies of copies of copies of stuff we have no intention of ever looking at again.

@_elena you should politely reach out to her with those thoughts. And then perhaps help her transition. :)
Did you know anarchists own a building in downtown #Montreal?
Yeah yeah, “property is theft”—but sometimes you gotta steal it back.
This spot has housed an anarchist bookstore, radical media, and generations of organizing and resistance. It's where I first found my Montreal peeps. Now it needs our help.

AI Label... what would you want it to say?
@hzulla @m @DarkOptimism @lillyfinch @mdione @PatternChaser @kkarhan @walkinglampshade @JR_Kelly @vic Like the sentiment. Ideas of how An AI badge description welcome.
And few notes:
- No need beg to Capitalism, you know the answer and why!
- You should just do it yourself !
(maybe I'll help).
We'll start with a few 'level' of AI which show a colour coded band of each levels inclusion for example:
🔴 - AI with live human-assisted filtering
⚫ -AI regenerated works within this work
- etc
Though we might be better assume all of it does and working that way to cutting tech out a bit more since it's industrial lef and therefore eventually hardwired.

Nothing strengthens #authority so much as #silence.
- Leonard De Vinci #Quote #Quotes
#Fascism #Fascist #Ignorance
#Silence #Silent #Politics #FreeSchool
This includes some non-fascist people who stay #silent and let things continue.
Ignoring things leads to Fascism... (even if you're not Fascist)
#Ignoring things leads to #Fascism... (even if not #Fascist)
So deliberately or not -the same result happens.
IF #people are not doing the #daily harmonising or understanding between people and micro-understanding things, then as fascist or not they are acting similar to a fascist who also isn't doing the harmonising or understanding work daily.
People that leave it to others, and close their ivory doors and metal gates at the end of the day thinking that goes anywhere than worse / allows others to continue doing badly.
@strypey Can you write some finding on it (it's just for me). Basically those individual people going through these apps are starting to find best of best which helps people get on board (or not - Delta Chat is quite good / revolution in itself for not many emails plain text and any-email-to-any-email style (if both have the app). Hadn't heard of Silence and even spooked me from the name as I was looking for #silence hashtag hoping for political pictures of "silence" or "silencing by mainstream media" or ignorant people that silently ignore / are political silently... leading to fascism... (what do you think of that as an interesting thing)
ooooh kay!
Thanks
Imagine a mobile text chat app that's a cross between Delta.Chat and Silence (defunct SMS app forked from early Signal);
https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.smssecure.smssecure/
As well as being the mobile app for my personal email address, it could also replace my SMS app. With the capacity for E2EE text when the other person's app supports either AutoCrypt (or something based on the variant of Signal's protocol that Silence uses).
Digital Exile... Being left out digitally...? !
#Quote says it well:
💬 " I propose that in this context, a fear of #exile – that is, a fear of being left out, #overlooked, #ignored or#banished – can act as a #regulating #force that inverts the radial spatial dynamic of the #panopticon and shifts the responsibility for visibility, understood both in terms of competitive exposure and existential recognition, onto #workers.
As a consequence these workers enlist #digital #technologies to become #visible at the real or imagined organizational centre."

Unofficial Bio - I've been an ice cream, advertising, and software salesman, a manager in an emergency room, a software developer, and an entrepreneur...
@CharlieMcHenry Is the author on Fediverse?
I like the section "Unofficial Bio"
" Unofficial Bio
Let me get this off my chest... I've never been comfortable with the concept of having one specific role, job description, or #philosophy.
So far I've been an ice cream, advertising, and software salesman, a manager in an emergency room, a software developer, and an entrepreneur.
Outside of ways I've chosen to make money, I enjoy exploring an eclectic range of ideas, and creating new things.
This website, therefore, is an attempt to weave together the various strands of my life. "
Booked to see Cory Doctorow @pluralistic at Blackwells Bookshop Manchester on 02 July. I now have over two months to think of a halfway sensible question to ask.

WHERE DO WE GO NOW TO WORK TOGETHER?
FEDIVERSE?
Intelligence for me now is measured now by those who can work together and communicate / chat versus those much less. Those that can help people individually develop and grow like me. Else we fail everyone. Ironically bad people do this better than the good, so we almost just have to copy them and self-check we're not bad along the way.
If not using others mutually then we are leaving them to the Capitalist system to eat up which is a LOSE:LOSE:LOSE (ME:YOU:EVERYONE).
RIGHT NOW... Helping Others using Fediverse could be MUCH easier if people were a bit more DEDICATED.
I'm defined today by my dreams. I try do RIGHT NOW or tomorrow for the children / adults as imagining it were for me.
Together we can measurably do things and talk towards solutions (I see as improving "communications" right now AS the actual solution)
We can solve individually the same-ish problems, and eventually more as a crowd like a crowd-funder (only less money involved, more intelligence). Snowballing the right things 🌨️ =☃️+ 🏂 / 🏦 🚫 = 📊 #FreeSchool
Audio conversations welcome, feel free to ask for chat link - just 3 clicks and in!.
I use simple chat for browsers using Jitsi (any device - no software install. A basic zoom-style clone, opensource. No google account etc. )
Privacy and Non-corporate minded.
#FreeSchool hashtag for my collected gems and alignments.
Let's chat soon. We need to care about we do daily and others to also care else we are isolated. No other way around it but talk...
