Strong views about abolishing oppression, hierarchy, agency, and self-governance - but I also trust people by default and give them room to grow, unless they give me reason not to. That all also applies to technology and how it's built.

Is there some way in Mastodon/glitch-soc to (optionally) view mentions and notifications from silenced instances?

I don't envy GTS folks for having to deal with "but maybe we can work with bigots just a little bit" kind of buffoonery now that a bunch of new people are showing up, but the responses make me happy.

@joepie91 I guess it's another failure of open source too. NLnet requires projects and their documentation to be released under a suitable floss license, but that leaves a lot of room for just taking the project private afterwards, or open-core type shit

In retrospect, the idea that we should monetize our free time, spare space, and unused car through gig apps should have been repugnant even without knowing it would lead to an entire industry of unregulated taxis and hotels
I think that what pisses me off most about this, is that all this grant money *could* have been used to do so much good, and could have been life-changing for people... but instead, it ended up basically 'seeding' some tech for a hypercapitalist cryptoshit company, to save them a buck
(It's Tether/Bitfinex who have taken it over, by the way. Yeah, the ones who have been artificially pumping up exchange rates.)
I sure wonder how all the past grant providers, such as NLnet, feel about the core protocol being taken out of open governance, and instead captured by cryptoshit scammers: https://github.com/dat-ecosystem-archive/organization#grants-and-grant-applications
Guess I'll have to look for a new stack for my P2P project...
Oh jesus christ, *of course* it's fucking cryptobros. Fucking hell. Well, RIP hypercore I guess.
Welp, apparently Hypercore is a company now. Sigh.

Everyone should read about the #prison trusty system. Not "trustee" (plural: trustees), but trusty (plural: trusties). I think it's key to understanding #patriarchy. 1/15
I think it's something subwoofer-related? Weird
*Something* about the sound mixing in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ivF-cdqxjQ makes my brain tickle, but *only* on my speakers... on headphones it just sounds noisy
