Listening to the brilliant @npub1fdrp...lvhs talk about facebook as the canonical example of #enshittification, I suddenly remembered how we all ended up with an account on it when it publicly launched: by way of a massive, annoying and abusively repetitive spam campaign from them. You remember those emails? "Your friends are on facebook, see what they're doing" or something similar. There was no way to stop them coming.
"Maintaining, continuing and repairing are care work. They’re foundational to any open‑source project. Maintenance is the unglamorous work that keeps people safe, tools usable, and the commons alive." "People first, with tempo and budgets set by real lives. That's how the commons stays alive: not just through resilient code but through resilient relationships." #fediverse #bonfire @npub1lzdq...urpr
Je suis allé faire un petit tour matinal sur , que je n'avais pas visité depuis longtemps, et j'en ressors toujours aussi impressionné par la diversité et la qualité des services proposés par @npub12k0p...e2sz. Ça continue de s'étoffer régulièrement, et il n'y a vraiment plus aucune bonne raison d'utiliser les services des Big Tech. Merci !
RE: Pretty excited by @npub1lzdq...urpr, especially by the Open Science flavor. The project in general also seems to be well thought out, in terms of roadmap or governance (putting maintenance first in the roadmap and making it strongly visible = 👏). Congrats to the team for the release and good luck for the next steps! (Edit: there's Ursula K. Le Guin in the crowdfunding campaign trailer, also, so you definitely should watch it) #Bonfire #OpenScience #Fediverse View quoted note →
"A new, federated, independent, web is being born before our eyes, running on Activitypub (Mastodon) and Atproto (Bluesky). (...) If the people building this new web are wise, they will take irrevocable action that will limit their ability (and the ability of their successors) to fall prey to the siren song of enshittification in the future. This is called a "Ulysses pact" – when you tie yourself to the mast so that you don't yield to future temptation." By @npub1fdrp...lvhs
