@DrPen “If men learn this, it will implant forgetfulness in their souls. They will cease to exercise memory because they rely on that which is written, calling things to remembrance no longer from within themselves, but by means of external marks.” If you extend this thinking to A.I. you can replace remember with thinking 🤔

@FediTips kan se jeg måske skal finde en ny server. Nogen bud på en stabil dansk server med et godt ry? #dkfedi

@Jgbird præcis ❤️

@duncan_lithgow hvilke forum tænker du på? Jeg er sådan set bare nysgerrig efter god sparring.

Following a rich white man to war because you didn’t like the sound of a black woman laughing will go down in American history as one of the stupidest things ever.

Dear Fedi friends, may I ask you a favor?

I would really appreciate it if you could boost this message. I have created a French version of my Fedi promo video - and a French landing page – that I hope can spread far and wide in the Francophone world:

France quietly deployed 100,000+ Linux machines in their police force - GendBuntu is a silent EU tech success story

Well done. Let us get free from Microsoft spyware OS. They are not trustworthy vendors, and all taxpayers' money should go to fund open-source apps/software and not to Bill Gates' fortune.

Er der nogen der kender til et dansk brugerforum for NextCloud. Jeg har flyttet alt mit private cloud til en NextCloud og er nu igang med at finde et godt setup til væres spejdergruppe. Det kunne være fedt at udveksle tanker med ligesindede. #nextcloud #itfrihedskæmper #spejder #forening #foss

@nicorikken This is a real liability. Same thing goes for danish public ID MITid that only works from Google Play Store and Apple Appstore. A big and effective kill-switch to the tech oligarks in US.

@duncan_lithgow Det er min ide. Men der er stor interesse for at komme fri af især messenger. Vi har testet det i troppen for to år siden. Vi kommer til at bruge en løsning fra Hetzner, så der ikke er nogen der skal passe en server. https://www.hetzner.com/storage/storage-share/

@duncan_lithgow Jep. Thorolf Gruppe på Islandsbrygge. Vi bruger ikke MS, men dropbox og en masse messenger og enkeltpersoners google drive. Planen er at NextCloud skal erstattet det.

@duncan_lithgow ja bestemt. Virker indtil nu upåklageligt. Skal i gang med at bruge det i vores spejdergruppe men kører pt. blot på min private instans.

This is the page in the history book where future generations may ask, “Why didn’t more people speak up?" Don’t let this slide.

If they can do that to a United States senator... https://www.comicsands.com/padilla-handcuffed-press-conference?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=infeed&utm_campaign=linkprogram

@duncan_lithgow bestemt. Lige nu er jeg forelsket i NextCloud og Collabora.

Jeg skal bruge en ny handicaphjælper til Danmarks hyggeligste hjælperteam! Er det mon dig? 🙂

Dear Fedi friends,

I'm really proud to share with you a video I made: "Introducing the Fediverse: a New Era of Social Media" https://news.elenarossini.com/fediverse-video/

In this 4-minute video I explain what the #fediverse is to people not familiar with it, mentioning some of its great features and benefits (interoperability, no ads, no surveillance...) and I set it in contrast to the world of Big Tech social platforms. I argue that, with the rise of Big Tech oligarchs and the current political climate, there has never been a better time to join the fediverse.

I hope you will enjoy this video and that you will find it useful (maybe as a tool to introduce your friends, family, colleagues, school administrators, local government officials to it).

The fediverse has truly changed my life, making me a better, more empowered digital citizen. I am endlessly grateful for it, so this is my contribution to the cause ❤️

I am also incredibly thankful for the work of @samaaberg and @patel.riyen who helped me bring my vision to life with their amazing cinematography skills and their assistance throughout the process, providing brilliant feedback to the script / edits from the POV of fedi newbies.

And I was also moved by the generous help of people of the Fediverse who volunteered to translate the script into many foreign languages: @jan @fritjof @erikkemp @sknob @severin @clabru @tarcisiosurdi @hongminhee @danielcasanueva @ainali @nacly

Lastly, I'm thankful for the opportunity I had to premiere the video last week at #FediForum - thank you @j12t and @anca

The video is up on my self-hosted PeerTube instance (thank you @yunohost) and for now it is unlisted as I have no idea how my VPS will hold up. I also included an alternate location in the blog post.

I hope you'll enjoy it! It's been a real labor of love (a month of full time work on it)... I see it as my love letter to the fediverse 💌

Edit/update: THANK YOU for all the people who volunteered to have their avatar show up in the last shot. There were 750+ submissions and only 135 spots - sorry I couldn't include everyone 🥲
