 So that big news? It's that I'm joining the @iftas Advisory Board, bringing my technical expertise to the challenges of moderation and trust & safety that they're working on for independent federated social media. This has been a little while in the making, so I'm very happy that we can announce it. 22 comments
    What does this mean for FIRES & my other independent work on the fediverse? Nothing changes, as we've ensured we preserve my ability to do that work. It does mean that from time to time I may be more involved with IFTAS work than my own, but that'll likely be the exception. It also means that I've more steady and stable income to help cover living expenses. Which means I can focus more on the fediverse than on working for-profit.       |
