#Wikidata currently holds information on almost 20000 periodicals published worldwide before 1930: https://w.wiki/A6s8. But, as one would suspect, quality of data and coverage differs widely between regions.

So, if you work on periodicals, particularly those published outside the Global North and major centres of publication, consider adding your knowledge to Wikidata for others to link to and discover these awesome resources.

This reminds of the time I met a couple of musician union reps at a party. I was interested to hear their thoughts file sharing and illegal downloads, this being the late nineties. For them the issue was insignificant compared to how little musicians got paid.

This surprised me because the public debate had been all about how musicians were being ripped off by people uploading cds and sharing songs via new technogy. Plus ca change.

We forget that for the vast majority of those earning a living from creative endeavours are wage earners.

The problem of getting a fair day's pay for a fair day's work betting over shadowed by 'new' problems isn't new.

When 18th century french weavers threw their sandals into the cogs of the new automatic weaving machines, they weren't luddites protesting the new technology. They were telling the bosses that your machines are only as good as those who used them.

Като част от инициативата за подпомагане на българската общност във федисферата (федиверса), имам намерение да проведа серия от анкети. Все още се опитвам да формулирам полезни теми и въпроси, но тук ще направя един първи опит. Мисля, че ако ви интересува българоезичната общност тук, ще ви бъдат полезни. Вижте въпросите в дискусията под този пост #bgpoll

La mia osservazione è che con il fediverso ancora non abbiamo azzeccato un modo sostenibile di fare comunità.

Anni fa sono entrato in diasp.org e anche se mi piaceva tantissimo, semplicemente dimenticavo di tornare. Questo si può confrontare con il comportamento dei social commerciali, che mesi dopo continuano di mandarmi messaggi per tirarmi indietro. Credo che dovrebbe esserci una via etica di mezzo.

Oggigiorno invece, lemmy è l’unica parte del fediverso, compatibile con ActivityPub che sta crescendo (analitiche qui: fedidb.org) al di là delle ondate da Tweeter, Reddit e simili. Io penso che proprio i gruppi di interessi potrebbero essere un motore di crescita della comunità.
