It's often hard to get Linked Data people to eat their own dog food. We usually try to get them there by showing examples. Paraphrasing @csarven at #swib23

Time to go to bed and try to sleep although it's still very warm outside. I will have to get up at 5am to board the ICE sprinter from Cologne to Berlin for #swib23. The trip will only take four hours – if everything works fine – as the train doesn't stop anywhere inbetween.

I just started to back @Tusky - my longstanding main Fediverse driver for Android - on @opencollective. Thanks to the ongoing #fedidrama which made me aware that the project has been receiving far too little money in the past. #tusky

It is so sad that #xmist Armin passed away on 15th of August. I have been ordering records from X-Mist since the early/mid 1990ies and have discovered so many great bands, records and EPs through him. He will be sorely missed in the German underground music scene. There is a blog set up in his memory at https://armin-x-mist.blogspot.com/. RIP

@phu Das sieht doch vielversprechend aus: https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/adding-federation-support-to-discourse/2966/12

Vielleicht sollten wir auch mal diskutieren was getan wird, wenn Meta mit großen Instnazen ins Fediverse kommt. Wird openbiblio.social mit denen föderieren oder werden die geblockt, um ein "Embrace, Extend, Extinguish" in seinen Anfängen zu ersticken?

@brembs I would never say this but I think the section can easily be read like this.

Die Bibliothek der Kunsthochschule für Medien #Köln sucht eine Leiter:in: https://stelle.pro/jobposting/132b62d84f47b4fe29a7b19b44e07e080a9cb93b0?ref=homepage

Ich habe dort vor Jahren Praktikum gemacht und mochte das sehr. Super Bestand und mit dem Overstolzenhaus als ältestem Säkularbau Kölns ist die Bibliothek dazu in einem sehr schönen Gebäude.

For some time now I have been using @organicmaps as my default navigation app. Just found out (via @liaizon ) that they are in the fediverse. I decided to donate as I try to support all the FLOSS projects I am regularly using - at least with a bigger one-time donation (although small regular amounts are the better for a project's long-term planning).
