@aral hi, did you know your day site gives "500 Failed"? Everything ok?
@LaQuadrature nous explique que Facebook, Google, Twitter... savent qu'ils sont perdants sur le terrain juridique. Ils déplacent donc le combat sur l'aspect idéologique avec l'espoir de modifier l'opinion publique en leur faveur. #PSES2018

Me: ...and as Knuth used to say, every problem has a solution that's neat, fast and wrong.
Startuppers and VCs in chorus: hey, we can sell *that*!
Reclaiming RSS
“Before Twitter, before algorithmic timelines filtered our reality for us, before surveillance capitalism, there was RSS: Really Simple Syndication … As we move away from the centralised web to the peer web, it’s time to rediscover, re-embrace, and reclaim RSS.”

@Gargron I fear this has the effect of amplifying 'popularity', and replicate the shitty birdsite social dynamics related to that... (each user should have the possibility to custom hide counts of following/followers to the whole fediverse imo, not a popular feature perhaps but a long-sighted one) @InspectorCaracal
