Let's go towards: #friendship / #friends / #friendships online
What do we think about https://call.element.io as a replacement for https://meet.jit.si (which now requires authentication via Google, Facebook or GitHub)?
I wanted to hop into a #JitsiMeet room now, but the jit.si UI is now pushing #jitsi users to create accounts (or "Wait for a moderator", which probably is the same as waiting for Godot), and this is their explanation for it: https://jitsi.org/blog/authentication-on-meet-jit-si/
I can imagine the "drug cartel uses this for human trafficking or worse" scenario they are implicitly depicting, but part of me thinks the move is rather an "end of zero-interest phenomenon" #enshittification measure 🤔️
Are you using #Jitsi meet? I proposed a feature you might know from your screen presentation tool or your projector remote: blanking or freezing the screen content so that you might do something in the background without showing what you do.
Very handy for demos, password interaction, fixing things, looking up something, ...
Unfortunately, #JitsiMeet is deleting feature requests like that after two months if they don't get implemented meanwhile.
You might want to jump in to this discussion if you find this useful:

I like p2p communication with webRTC better and better. not having a server in between which stores messages, but only sending messages (directly or in the form of a queue) when both peers are online. writing a message queue is my next step in my #KaiOS app #webRTC #KaiOS https://github.com/strukturart/flop
FilePizza • Your files, delivered.
Peer-to-peer file transfers in your browser.
Using WebRTC, FilePizza eliminates the initial upload step required by other web-based file sharing services. Because data is never stored in an intermediary server, the transfer is fast, private, and secure.

(or try make #friends and work on positives more)
"no #free lunch"
(or try "we all will eat somehow")
"#fight for us or #starve on your own"

"several long-serving members have also left the party over the issue. Some have decided to remain inside Sinn Féin to fight to maintain its current stance."

LEAVE UK ! GO Try elsewhere TRAVEL NOW!
(choose wisely a culture but also just aim to go #EU let's say and then move around)
==========================
GET OUT NOW BEFORE NEW #VISA SHIT COMES IN #2025 !
TRY EU & #TRAVELING and say you gave it a shot and come back...
Or #Ireland frankly if not willing to leave completely...
I can help you if you can talk privately...
THE REST IS EXTRA - JUST GET SERIOUS AND LET'S TALK BASIC #OPTIONS BUT JUST GOING BECAUSE WE KNOW #UK IS EXPENSIVE CRAP!
Similar advice for T#rans people goes for others... see video below:
America’s #trans #refugees: Where can I go?
https://yewtu.be/watch?v=WjBqTdjKU7c
"Somewhere a bit more moral and green..."
I admit there isn't too much BUT many countries in EU can help you KILL #TIME AND TRY FIND other# existing places / people...
I wanted to say all that because new #Visa etc stuff is coming and best chance to try a new life is RIGHT NOW...
https://transrescue.org/leaving-the-uk-for-ireland-what-you-need-to-know
and you can even come back to your expensive #hellhole / #rented #shithole and say you tried after and pay less rent meantime by keeping light.
Take a lot of money (not all) and have rest sent you to after...
#Summertime makes it all easier / lighter packing...

(said for #TransRescue #trans #TransRights so slightly different but I believe all of us are in a lot of danger - soft or direct danger)
@lgbtqia
The UK Supreme Court ruled today in favour of For Women Scotland, in a blow for the rights of British trans people.We know many of you will be worried, and thinking about leaving the UK. Like everyone else we are digesting the ruling at the moment, and will deliver our thoughts when we have done so.
went to my middle schooler's choir recital tonight.
showed up in full goth parent mode, i was like a 00s industrial/EBM kid got a corporate job. my makeup's finally hitting right. i looked amazing
my partner and i were probably the only queer people there. we got stared at like zoo animals and no one sat in our row. like, the entire row. one family group actively left once they saw me. very subtle.
whatever. my kid was thrilled we showed up, so everyone else can...
the best part? the finale was YMCA. yeah.
a 5th grade choir singing a gay anthem about where to find anonymous hookups, while the same parents who'd clutch pearls at two women holding hands were out there clapping and doing the dance like it's sunday service. the same people who'd call us groomers for existing...
the hypocrisy rolled in, did jazz hands, and called it traditional midwestern family values.
goddamn it was hilarious in that, i-laughed-so-i-wouldn't-start-screaming, kind of way.
...i can't wait to move.

Freedom pioneer. All things towards #Freedom.
#FreeSchool = #Notes #Quotes (extracts / gems) from great #Books #Videos #Talks #Websites from all around the world towards
TOGETHER & MORE OFTEN DIRECTLY (who else is going to do it?).
#FreeSchool hashtag shows examples what this is about... and can check anytime.
Overall: Moving From Shorter to Deeper intelligence and more Caring thoughts...
( More below if you're able )
#DIY Care (because nobody else is going to as best as you do for those around) - #Caring IS our main #Politics / #Politics and "System" (not a system of cheating each other but caring and what Capitalism is cutting out - this is what we need to put back in and teach to those willing).
#Degrowth / PostGrowth
#WellbeingEconomy #DoughnutEconomics
#CaringEconomy / #CareEconomy / #Partnerism
"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 🔁
See My #FreeSchool (Hashtag) for latest examples anytime. Or keep open and refresh from time to time:

#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.
