Mozilla's taking an interesting lead here as a NGO (with their resources) to help bolster the Fediverse. The fact that moderation and safety isn't an afterthought is reassuring. https://www.theverge.com/23710406/mozilla-social-mastodon-fediverse-moderation And taking a step to look how to incorporate public services instead of celebrities and politicians should be onboarded (since they provide more immediate value to the other 99% of the users) is dope!

@jalcine Mozilla is a half-billion dollar for-profit corporation that gets that money almost-exclusively from surveillance capitalist Google. They’re also venturing into AI and are, themselves, venture capitalists now. As their head of public policy once told me “I don’t know why you’re holding us to such a higher standard… we’re just another Silicon Valley tech company.”

My work history lives at https://jacky.wtf/work. tl;dr: snr swe, working for nearly a decade now. Basically, a bit of a razzle dazzle came down the tree. Working on getting back to everyone, and I appreciate everyone reaching out thus far! Also forwarding these to colleagues of mine who were let go. (https://jacky.wtf/2022/8/NRzm)

How do you describe the act of hosting instances of an application for people? The kind of app isn't going to be the same though. I have an idea on how to do this but I'd like to see if someone has a solution for this

@jalcine are you looking for like.... vocabulary terms to search the web for, or do want a description of what it feels like to host the instances? |
@jalcine So I'm guessing the photographer didn't need the one about Photoshop?

How are elephants affected by this?
The book is more than a leaflet, i am really astonished that Mr. Minnik and Mr. McCallister wrote lots of text about something which might as well go "Boink!" tomorrow. It won't, but this is not impossible.
