"If you work from home or run a business, Nextcloud, and its app integrations, provide almost everything you need to opt out of big tech entirely." Not only do you get a private cloud storage server but a bunch of excellent apps for all purposes!"

@aetiology Absolutely right — advocating against safe, effective vaccines is advocating for earlier death, a shorter human lifespan, and — most horrifically — increased deaths of children. It is important to state this clearly and to repeat it as needed.

Vaccines are simply the most important scientific advance in biomedicine since 1900.

The Commission should anticipate that Meta will meet the test of systematic non-compliance in DMA Article 18(3). In view of the seriousness of the circumstances, the Commission should be fully prepared to use its powers to impose structural remedies at the earliest opportunity.

There was a time when Big Tech benefitted from the gap between data protection and competition enforcement. That gap is narrowing. The two areas of law may become a vice.

The instance is flourishing, and nearly 100 signups have happened over the last few days. Lots of people are having fun, and we're settling into new methods and strategies to make this great for everyone.

One thing worth noting is that a few instances have already suspended us - Mastodon.social, one of the biggest instances, and a few others like wandering.shop. That is their perogative, and there are no hard feelings, but it is a bummer to see these efforts get misunderstood and closed off.

Brands.Town is one part culture-jamming, one part satire, and one part collaborative ARG with an evolving made-up world. Every account pretends to be verified. It's a giant middle finger to corporate propaganda on social networks, and an effort to make the fediverse somewhat less hospitable to actual brands trying to colonize our space.

Anyway, check us out: https://brands.town/public

And maybe sign up!

I will give big points to the first news organization, big or small, that:
* Sets up an instance for its newsroom,
* Sets up an instance for the community it serves,
* Enables rel=me for staff,
* Creates a boost-on-Mastodon sharing function,
* Enhances that function so headlines/images (with alt-text) appear in the toot,
* Covers the Fediverse as more than a geeky curiosity or alt-Twitter,
* Listens to and joins in the conversation here.

I wanted to take a minute to plug my #photography website:
