Deleted my LinkedIn account today. Feels like a relief. Exited Facebook, Twitter and Instagram many years ago already, which also made my life more comfortable.
Mastodon, Pixelfed and other Fediverse platforms are different. You're not being manipulated by algorithms to maximize engagement, you're not bombarded by ads, not misled by fake news and "AI" generated slop posts, not numbed by nervous short videos, and other forms of enshittification.

In this talk at an #AI conference, you only need to watch the conclusion at the end. Only watch 2 secs. until you heard this..
> Software is a human endeavor [..] AI changes everything about how we code. But in fact I don't think it changes *anything* about how #software fails.

Of all #funding services available to #FOSS and #Social impact activists, its missed opportunity that @Liberapay does not have channel integration with @Codeberg and the many @forgejo forges that are scattered throughout our creative #SocialWeb.
I assume this is #commons contribution thing and this is about who cares a 🪙 dime, and gives 2 cts.
For those interested, here you may find #cocreators:

I talked to my co-worker about @timnitGebru and we decided to talk about it in our blog as well, due to the fact I use @letsenvision 's AI companion, Envision Ally.
Reflect and be aware of tools we have in hand, is the only way for us to take control on tech, rather than being controlled by it.
