It's official, the #Metaverse failed!
Meanwhile I don't even know 1 person who ever visited it 😅

Not one(!) after:
#Meta "...had funneled some $73 billion into Reality Labs. To put that into context, you’d have to spend $1 million per day for 200 years to match that kind of spending."

Well, there goes the metaverse! | TechCrunch

The metaverse is on its last legs as VR is eclipsed by AI. But that's not the only thing that went wrong for Meta's VR ambitions.

Cool! In line with #GlobalSwitchDay,
German #digital #rights groups and tech companies started organising #DigitalIndependenceDay on the first Sunday of every month to help users move away from US tech platforms.

✊🏼 Together we can break the dominance of #BigTech and foster a more #resilient, #democratic digital space in #Europe by migrating to privacy-focused EU alternatives for services like messaging, cloud storage and shopping. Let’s go!

You can make your posts more accessible and inclusive by putting hashtags at the end.

When you place hashtags after the main text of a post, screen‑reader users can hear the core message first without interruption. This simple adjustment ensures that blind and visually‑impaired persons receive the essential information clearly and promptly.

Beyond accessibility, this small practice reflects a genuine commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion.

It's always good to think how the digital content is experienced by everyone, so we can create a more welcoming and inclusive digital space.

As inclusion is an important aspect of communication and communities, let's remember about it. Small thing to do, but improves experience of so many people.

The weirdest part of self-hosting isn't the control, it's the silence.
I logged into my dashboard tonight via the tunnel. No banner ads. No
"suggested content" algorithms designed to doomscroll me. No tracking pixels firing off to a data broker in Utah, lol.
Just my tools, sitting there, waiting.
We really forgot what the internet feels like when it isn't trying to extract value from us every single second. It’s quiet here. I like it.
