 Still, I keep having a recurrent thought that if I don't make videos now, to help promote the Fediverse, I would regret it in the future. Yes my daily schedule makes it a challenge to do videos. But this is a good challenge, for a GREAT cause. I'm so frustrated and angry and disgusted by Big Tech barons and their horrid behavior... I need to channel this rage somewhere... into a creative project π₯ Please be patient with me (making videos is SOOO time consuming). But do know I'm on your side. 7 comments
So it is decided. Yes, I will make promotional videos for the #Fediverse: explaining what it is, how to use various software... and setting it up in contrast to the current horrors of Meta and X. Anger and frustration have been building up in me since November. This week has been a hell of a ride. I gotta channel all these negative feelings somewhere and turn them into something positive instead. Promoting the Fediverse and resuming making films seem like the perfect match... The coming days will be interesting. I will be spending half the day reading Peppa Pig books to my child, drawing and building DUPLO and LEGO sets with her... and half the day writing a script that aims to inflict the maximum damage imaginable to the perception of Meta and X. While of course promoting the Fediverse in contrast to the dystopia of Big Tech. I reckon I need 20 hours to make a first video. Please be patient but know I'm extremely motivated, time constraints and all π€ π₯ officially entering pre-production for my video series about the #Fediverse π¬ THANK YOU for encouraging me to do this. It feels really energizing β€οΈ Iβm often thinking about this brilliant quote by filmmaker Ava DuVernay: βIf your dream is only about you, itβs too small.β My dream / lofty goal: for everyone to know about the #Fediverse and why / how to join it. Striving to create an easy to follow, persuasive video explainer. P.S.: I changed my bio π (Iβm no longer a βfilmmaker on hiatusβ)   |

Thank you again for your sweet, encouraging messages. Iβm typing this as I go pick up my child from daycare.
So yes I will definitely make a video soon. It will take time. Weeks possibly. But on the upside: as soon as I finish the English version, I could get to work on French and Italian ones for maximum impact. One of the perks of being a polyglot βοΈ
Iβll be mostly offline for the rest of the day, thanks again β€οΈ
