I follow the #Accessibility and #Disability hashtags and it disgusts me how much AI PR sludge and ableist framings get promoted to it by corporate/bot accounts that DGAF about disabled people.

@silvermoon82 such a Bluejay Thing to do. They're such pretty little jerks and they know it

This means directly targeting classical liberalism and the governments collusion with capital. Simply getting them to use mastodon or whatever does mot target the root cause.

We have 2 mobile operating systems, both under the control of American big tech oligarchs. That is not freedom. It is the illusion of choice. It is technological tyranny. Most government services require these OS’s exclusively to use many public apps and services.

Most governments are allowed to image your devices and back them up to some police state server indefinitely because you cross a border. That is not freedom or democracy. It is technological tyranny. Companies are allowed to sell you a device and brick it or completely change the value proposition without consequence. The ability to exert control over your purchased hardware and software should not even be an option for any government or corporation.

Damn… We should really start fighting for a world where people making the option of not using digital technologies are respected, as written in the Off-Punk Manifesto…

@colinstu @ariadne come to think of it, his DOGE shenanigans wrecking the government might be partly responsible for texas becoming blue during these midterms

BREAKING NEWS: $10GRANS shares accelerated NFTs from $SPUNC sale #BreakingNews

When covid started I didn’t know anything about it. I wasn’t on Twitter or reddit or Facebook. I was in college, doing that and had a baby. We watched cartoons and when they slept I’d read and write. I had no idea until no one was on the road or at Walmart with me. I had no idea how to even get information about what was happening, so I went to the county website and found nothing. my professors stopped livestreaming and sent helpful information about it the same week so I got it.

Turned out the city had a Facebook page that people were getting their information from. And there was also a Twitter.

Then my kid gets to be school aged. The fucking school used Facebook and twitter to communicate with parents. I missed so many programs, and lacked information about everything that happened there.

Fucking hate it.

We shouldn’t be forced to use toxic platforms that track and profile us in order to get public information.

Platforms such as Facebook, Instagram and YouTube track and profile their users so that they can target advertising towards them.

Their business models fuel online harms by pushing more and more extreme content to users. Despite this, these platforms are one of the primary ways that government departments share public information.

Tell your MP to support the EDM calling on the UK Government to ensure that all public sector social media content is published on open, decentralised and federated platforms!

Do you want Elizabeth Warren beating the shit out of Bank Presidents, or raising money from them?

Do you want Raskin catching Kash Patel's lies, or chasing down Blue Dogs to fluff their ego?

Fluxer is chill. Honestly if you just want VoIP like you just plop down on a couch and talk to people. The only other thing I can think of that I could honestly recommend would still be mumble.

It’s simple because one job really well it’s easy to use and it doesn’t get in the way.

But if you want something that is a bit more discord like and relax then yeah fluxer is really about the only good option at the moment.

All the matrix b* nonsense at people love to talk about is really good… As a replacement for like Microsoft teams…
