I decided since I don't understand how all of this works, I will just simply ask Jerry personally about all of this data and technical details, so that people will no longer be confused about all of this.

Includes an exclusive interview with Jerry.

If you value your freedom remember that YOU can control how you compute.

Do not comply.

"Dystopian worlds don't just pop into existence: they are built by the choices of those with substantial power, taking freedom from others. Free software has unlimited power for making our world actually better for people (not Big Tech), but we need to join together and ensure that freedom can thrive."

@strypey @n_dimension sorry, didn't mean to be so negative - yes, a single app consolidating lots of open social feeds could be a compelling capability. I just wish that people picked #libre because it's better for them and everyone else, rather than because their expectations of unpaid libre devs is usually far higher than that of well-remunerated proprietary devs helping to fill VCs' & corporate shareholders' coffers by exploiting hapless users.
