👁️ #attention fedizens

Those of you who still have an account on #linkedin: We started a neat little 🫂 #outreach campaign as #SX experiment.

In the coming year we hope to organize with participants from the #fediverse and help from supportive institutions, such as @nlnet @sovtechfund and @ngi to organize large #GrassrootsCampaigns that attact people from exploitative platforms to the #ActivityPub fedi.

You can help testdrive and reinforce this 🔮 #opportunity challenge.

https://www.linkedin.com/posts/coding-social_smallishuge-wishlist-smallest-activity-7412061390183571456-f50K

#smallishuge #wishlist #smallest #happynewyear #socialexperiencedesign #nutshell #delightful #humanity #activitypub #grassrootsstandard #peopleverse #socialcg #socialhub #future #sociosphere… | Social coding commons

Following Arnold Schrijver's example we too will provide our #smallishuge #wishlist for whom we want to meet with in #2026. Our movement has undergone recent chaordic reorganization, and it would be most appropriate to reflect that in our message. So we'll formulate our #smallest wishlist for the #HappyNewYear along the following 3 hedonic drivers: 1. think - reflect on goals and objectives, so that you'll act accordingly. 2. act - find the people you need to collaborate with for proper solutions. 3. feel - imagine solutions where you want to be, that satisfy your needs. Simply put: "Think before you act, so you end up where you want to feel." This helps put you in play. That is #SocialExperienceDesign in a #Nutshell. Here then is our #delightful list: 1. We would like to dearly thank NLnet foundation and especially Michiel Leenaers, the strategical thinker who tirelessly works to help NGI - The Next Generation Internet become available for #Humanity. We hope to meet you soon! 2. Secondly we would live to convey our gratitude and thanks for all those people in the #ActivityPub developer ecosystem, who help this #GrassrootsStandard protocol evolve, and who evolve a #peopleverse. In particular our hearts go out to W3C #SocialCG and the affiliated #SocialHub community hosted by our friends at @paviliontech. Or 2nd pick is Angus McLeod, a great person who acted when needed. 3. Finally we'll look back at the past and try to connect to the #future. One of our members long ago met with someone beautiful, who as no other knows our #sociosphere around us. Our member lured them with what #fediverse had to offer and still does offers to this day: merely the #technosphere. There was no #connection to the #SocialImpact movements on the ground in #Amsterdam. Merlijn Twaalfhoven, on behalf of our member Arnold, we apologize to you, we'll hope we get a 🍒 second chance from you. Our organization exists to fill the enormous gap, where #humanity needs progess and our #tech seems hellbent to holding us back! Merlijn we focus the next year, on bringing #SocioCultural #innovation to the social web. If time, opportunity, and support allows us. I now pass on the 🔮 #wishlist opportunity challenge to the fine folks at the NLnet foundation. Do you dare to look ahead for our linked-in #collective and formulate 3 wishes for fine ♻️ #commons #connectors we should focus our 💗 #attention on in #2026 ?

Karrierenetzwerk? Böhmermann seziert LinkedIn als Mischung aus Bullshit‑Motivationssprech, toxischer Männlichkeit, sexueller Belästigung und rechtsextremen Posts – die von der KI durchgewunken werden. Während andere Netzwerke ans NetzDG müssen, durfte LinkedIn sich bequem hinter dem Etikett „beruflich“ verstecken.

Het mensenversum zit gelukkig hier. Op het vrije #fediversum. 💪

Een reply op een bericht van Merlijn Twaalfhoven dat we in donkere meer verbindend vermogen nodig hebben. Ik antwoord met "We hebben nieuwe taal nodig, Merlijn. Ik begin alvast voor het vervangen van al die koude harde techtalk" Gevolgd met dit lijstje aan termen, en emoji erbij:

Funny that you should ask. I went to the LinkedIn post, and there's a hyperlink there to the actual job listing on Microsoft's WWW site.

It is patently LLM-written. The 'Responsibilities' section shouts that fact the loudest.

https://careerhub.microsoft.com/careers/job/1970393556639051

Amusingly, for a job that deals in rewriting things in Rust, actual experience with that language is an optional requirement, whereas >= 6 years experience in Python or JavaScript fulfils the mandatory requirement.

Mind you, job listings have been autocompleted using boilerplate, especially by recruitment agencies, for decades.

Liebe @bwegtBW, herzlichen Glückwunsch zum Rückzug von #X. 👏
Dass Ihr auch bei #Mastodon aufhören wollt, ist nicht verständlich, zumal Ihr Euch zu #Nachhaltigkeit bekennt.
Von einigen Unterzeichner:innen unseres Appells wurde eine Arbeit zur nachhaltigen Nutzung von Smartphones erstellt
👉 https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdfdirect/10.1002/sd.2995?download=true

Darin wird festgestellt, dass der größte Teil des Energieverbrauchs von #Handys gar nicht beim Gerät anfällt, sondern bei der Übertragung und Speicherung der Daten.

Und diese Daten stammen vor allem von den Apps, über die Ihr in Zukunft mit den Bürger:innen kommunizieren wollt. Ihr tragt dann dazu bei, dass der #Energieverbrauch des #Digitalsektors noch weiter ansteigt.
Wenn Ihr konsequent nachhaltig agieren wollt, müsstet Ihr Euch von #YouTube, #Insta, #LinkedIn, #Facebook und #TikTok trennen, aber nicht von Mastodon.
Prüft Eure Entscheidung bitte nochmal, und bei Bedarf sind die Autor:innen der Studie sicher gerne zu weiteren Auskünften bereit.

@VerkehrsministeriumBW

Are there any alternatives to #LinkedIn now that they’re pushing harder and harder for ID verification of their users?

Honestly with the utter shit content on the platform, I’d probably just abandon my account there.

Just following #LinkedIn advice. 🤗

I shared a screenshot of a fediverse toot that reads "If you heard me say 'User', it is only a reminder that we arel humans and no one is perfect". And on the linkedin post I added the text "In the age of dehumanising AI we can help make it more personal again.

Then after posting that LinkedIn came with the following recommendation: "Promote this post to the people who matter to you". And with a big Boost button besides it. So here I am boosting this again. :)

Mal eine Frage in die Runde zu proprietären Alternativen: Bin im Moment von Zeit zu Zeit auf Industrie-Konferenzen (IT+Fertigung+Unis/Institute), wo alle ihren #LinkedIn Handle austauschen. Ich habe nur eine E-Mail und das funktioniert organisatorisch nicht so richtig, schon allein weil ich das nicht alles beantwortet bekomme.
Was wäre eine gute LinkedIn-Alternative für das Fediverse?
Dieser Account hier ist privat, daher würde ich mir dafür gerne getrennt etwas anlegen und bin auf der Suche...
