Lost the post - but the new folks who are making a list of academics by discipline and making it public

Y'all are getting peoples consent before doing so, no?
Asking cause I don't want to be on there, and I want to make sure that doesn't happen.

Fedi was built by queer/leftie/trans/otherwise marginalized people and that still represents a big chunk of the people who are here

So when a bunch of straight cis people show up

People who can't even imagine what online harassment looks like

And they're publicly publishing lists of who we are without opt-in consent

Even if it's "for benign reasons"

That level of clumsiness is a fucking threat

really need to wake up as there's lots of things to get done today but also bed warm and soft

the issue with writing software is that people will then use that software

I also help moderate the matrix server at cyberia.club, as well as help out with Layer Zero, a physical hackerspace in Minneapolis.

If you'd like to be involved with either of these spaces, please reach out! We're not elite-- it's just more fun to do this stuff together and you're welcome to join us. :)

@maloki true yeah. Idk, i've been using the advanced interface for ages but i'm starting to feel (or notice) it being to overwhelming for me. But the simple interface is lacking too much so.. looking for a good in-between model if possible

@maloki I'm wondering if just having a center column with the timeline, and one next to it for the selected thread isn't enough 'multi' columns for most people. Especially when notifications are also visible to the side
