Les migrations collectives, ça fonctionne aussi.

Un collectif dont je fais partie avait de nombreux échanges via Whatsapp.
J'ai toujours refusé d'utiliser ce canal, et je me retrouvais en retard sur pas mal d'infos.
En fait, j'étais pas le seul.

Cet été, au cours d'une réunion, la question a été évoquée, ça a paru évident à tout le monde qu'il fallait migrer sur Signal.

Ça s'est fait immédiatement, sans douleur

@rysiek @yuki2501 so I'm guessing Brundle is the evil one, going by tropes?

While the #Grünen might have resources, most of them are tied up in defensive battles right now. Germany currently faces a two-pronged propaganda attack from Russian-sponsored and American-sponsored fascists (not that there is much difference, these days), and while the fascists aren't running either the federal or any state-level governments yet, the latter might occur before the year is over.

And the Greens _are_ the primary political target of the fascists - that is to say, the fascists attack the Green Party more than any other parties (including attacks on party offices, although fortunately this was limited to property damage... so far).

I don't _think_ German political parties sponsor #FOSS projects directly, though others might know more about this than I do. Perhaps @netzbegruenung knows more.

However, if in government they can certainly provide public funding for such projects - I believe #Mastodon has accessed such funds in the past. And the Greens certainly are in favor of #FOSS projects and projects, which has become all the more important for #DigitalSovereignity these days. It has _not_ gone unnoticed how the USA has treated members of the #ICC , and the overreliance of Europe and Germany on US digital infrastructure is now seen as a major security risk.

Do Not Talk To Me About "AI"

I had some cards printed up.

These are unlikely to change any minds, but they will defintely shorten some incredibly tedious conversations at the bar.

Here's a PDF if you'd like some of your own.

@kingmoth The article discusses this: that’s a fundamental mistaking of what you are to Twitter when you post. You are not a combatant, you are fuel.

@joachim il est magnifique

“In the days ahead, you’ll hear some people argue that Canada has no choice. We cannot afford to lose U.S. market access.

The data says otherwise. Merchandise exports to the United States fell by roughly $30 billion in 2025 — and were almost entirely offset by a $29 billion increase everywhere else. Global Affairs Canada’s own accounting puts non-U.S. markets at 32.8 per cent of Canadian exports, the highest share in four decades. Canada is negotiating from a considerably stronger position than its posture suggests.”

You can't prohibit agile software development, but you kanban it.

Another take with the same data... Less "natural", I should probably aim for something in the middle 😅

tell me which one you prefer.

@Richard_Littler @futurebird Non-fundable tokens.

Nottinghamshire Police could target children for anti-social behaviour using their intrusive and discriminatory face-scanning tech.

We've joined Big Brother Watch and leading rights groups to tell the force to #StopFacialRecognition.

Live facial recognition puts ALL our rights and freedoms at risk.

Adding children – some as young as 11 years old – and subjecting them to biometric ID checks is unacceptable.

@sebsauvage
Super excellent !
👍

Un détail que j'aime bien que tu n'as pas signalé : on peut à tout moment réinitialiser le lien de contact / QR code, si un casse pied a par hasard récupérer notre contact : comme ça il ne peut plus nous parler 😁

Histoire d'ajouter toujours plus de détails utiles :
Il y a une page wikipedia tu peux la compléter si le cœur t'en dit.😉

En tout cas merci pour tout ce travail !
