Time to #GiveUpGitHub like #CoMaps, #MapComplete, and now #Dillo ! Libre software projects should be leading everyone to a freer world - not using proprietary platforms themselves!

After nearly 10 years, Mastodon founder Eugen Rochko steps down as CEO, transferring assets and the trademark to a non-profit ⚖️
The move aims to protect Mastodon’s decentralized, user-controlled values while reducing founder stress and ensuring sustainable governance 🌐

Love building things that don’t rely on a single platform? So do we.
Bring your ideas, your experiments, your victories (and failures!) to the Decentralised Communication devroom.
Our CfP is open until the end of the week, be quick!
I left mainstream platforms completely burned out and found the fediverse, and god it felt like I could finally breathe again without someone tracking every single thing I did.
But even here I kept wondering who actually protects my data when someone comes asking for it, and I realized I didn't want to trust anyone else with that answer.
So I run https://goingdark.social now because I wanted that certainty for myself and my community. When someone demands data or tries to shut down what we talk about, I'm the one who gets to say no and take whatever comes with that.
I pay for this out of pocket because it matters to me, and your admin is probably doing the same thing, maybe a father of three running a server from his home office, a single mom keeping her community safe between work shifts, an older gentleman who remembers what the internet used to feel like before corporations owned everything.
That's how this whole thing works, regular people running small spaces because they care, all of us building something no single company or government can control. We're doing this together and every small instance matters.
Support your local instance admin however you can. They're keeping this alive for all of us.

🧠 Just came across #BeyondPDF by #TMLR. It introduces a new submission format for #ScientificPublishing based on #Markdown and #HTML, supporting interactive figures, videos, and other rich media. This enables direct interaction with content beyond what static PDFs allow. Awesome idea!
@pixeltracker Cool. My idea of going beyond #BeyondPDF for #ScientificPublishing #OpenScience with #WebStandards :

See e.g. @dokieli https://dokie.li/
I am pondering #decentralization (I like to tag #decent9n), considering that there may be no overlap between #federated tech, #localFirst, and #blockchain, though all are #decentralized, per se.
Speaking about #decentralization and Mastodon, does Mastodon official client onboarding flow still promote the "mastodon.social" or other single server as default option instead of rotating/randomizing across the list of known servers with option to type server manually? Without this #Mastodon will have to "block Missisipi" too eventually.
Yes, I referring to that decision of #Bluesky to block access to bluesky web UI from IP addresses in Missisipi US state due age-check laws adopted there.

Unfortunately, we were not able to raise the necessary funds and thus will have to shut down Acter and its matrix sever (for now): https://acter.global/news/we-are-shutting-down-acter-app-and-service-by-february-2026/
*Fortunately* for you that means I am available for some freelance #rust engineering work again, part-time for now as things still require my attention at times. #fedihire
I can help from building SDKs to entire Apps in Rust (currently playing with #gpui ), architect, debug, profile, educate, teach and lead. Most of my 18+ years I've spent with #decentralization #privacy #encryption and #offlineFirst . If any of that is of interest to your, hit me up. Either here or via any of the contacts on my website (which also has a CV and project overview): https://GNUnicorn.org
Retoots appreciated ❤️ !
