@pelle @lydiaconwell Great! I’m sorry I’ve given you bad advice. I’ll think about it.

@pelle @lydiaconwell You’ll just get alienated, very fast. Do it laterally – don’t tell people to use decentralized protocols, but do it in a meaningful way and passively show them that you can live a more fulfilling, meaningful life with free software.

(By the way, microblogging implementations aren’t and cannot be free software.)

@docpop Power move LMAO

@assimilateborg @EUCommission Hi, absolutely! The French philosopher Joëlle Zask wrote in 2011 “Participer. Essai sur les formes démocratiques de la participation”, which discusses individuation according to Thomas Jefferson and Alexis de Tocqueville. My eyes hurt at the moment, but it discusses our need for involvement in pluralistic associations.

@EUCommission Hi, thank you so much for your commitment to LGBTQIA+ rights and managing a self-hosted Mastodon account whereas your replies will try to engage in a power struggle with a community manager. I wish we didn’t confuse collective action with degrading your work conditions, and I hope we can manage to make this space more welcoming and inclusive for everyone. Death to Frontex; I wish you an excellent evening.
