even though im not a native english speaker (or because I am not?), I tend to convolute my sentences a lot (very meta you can see it in this post (with all the (nested) parenthesis) too)

So suddenly there’s a lot of attention around email and it’s exposing how many people in the web community still use Gmail. Like actually trust all your personal information and communication (and that of your potentially marginalised or vulnerable contacts) with Google. 🤮

There are a lot of hard problems and lack of alternatives when it comes to rights-respecting technology. But email (as imperfect as it is) has a fair few affordable alternative providers. Small change, big difference.

Maybe I’ve not been saying it loudly or frequently enough for the last however-many years…

Privacy is not a luxury.

Same with accessibility. Neither are luxuries, they’re life-sustaining rights. And you’re unusually privileged if you’ve not had to care about either.

so for some reason the mastodon moderation federation interface shows "x users followed by us", but won't show you *who* is following who. So here is a messy postgres query that shows which of your local users follow people from BAD_DOMAIN.COM, so you can inform them after suspending

select accounts.username as remote_user, local_users.username as followed_by from accounts inner join follows on accounts.id = follows.target_account_id and domain='BAD_DOMAIN.COM' inner join accounts as local_users on follows.account_id=local_users.id;
