Officieel: Apache maakt een kruis over X.

Omdat we niks meer te zoeken hebben op een plek waar de waarheid overstemd wordt door propaganda, desinformatie, leugens en haatspraak, zeggen we op 20 januari “So long, Elon!”.

Hey Mastodon, het is tijd voor een #eXit.

Volt zit sinds kort op Mastodon en onze aanwezigheid zal hier alleen maar toenemen. Twitter was ooit een plek voor ideeën en inzichten, maar X is een politiek wapen dat onze democratie ondermijnt. Daarom zijn wij van X vertrokken. Samen bouwen we aan platforms die versterken in plaats van verdelen.

Maak jij vandaag ook jouw #eXit? Lees hier ons volledige statement: voltnederland.org/nieuws/vertr…

Unberechtigte Zugriffe auf personenbezogene Daten durch Mitarbeitende in Behörden, Praxen/Krankenhäusern, Versicherungen/Banken und Digitalisierungsdienstleistern sind ein Riesenproblem.

Today Mastodon is taking another step towards its founding ideals: independence and non-profit ownership. We're transferring ownership of key assets to a new, European not-for-profit entity, ensuring our mission remains true to a decentralised social web, not corporate control. #MastodonNonProfit

""Ich würde mir tatsächlich wünschen, dass die Polizei direkten Zugriff auf Gesundheitsdaten bekommen kann", so Huth. Man könne durch einen Verhaltenskodex verhindern, dass die Daten innerhalb der gesamten Polizei kursieren"

Ja genau, sag das mal Helene Fischer.

Einerseits schon sehr amüsant das Meta sich sowie das Geschäftsmodell von Instagram durch Pixelfed bedroht sieht und nun zu solchen unlauteren Maßnahmen greift. 😅😉

Anderseits ziemlich bedenklich in mehr als einer Hinsicht sowie wohl auch rechtlich, das Meta auf Instagram nun Links zu Pixelfed als Alternative sperrt und somit Zensur vom feinsten betreibt. 🖕🤮

Haha, so wahr wie traurig diese Zusammenfassung. 😅😩👍

Somit ist Meta mit dessen Diensten und Plattformen wohl auch in die Kategorie von "Plattform für alternative Fakten und Verteiler von Falschmeldungen" einzuordnen sowie vollendes zu meiden und blockieren.

Diese wichtige Erkenntnis manchen Nutzern und insbesondere bei Familie und Freunde verständlich zu machen sowie konsequent durchzusetzen, das könnte die wahre Herausforderung werden...🤔😭

U tohoto jsem se hodně dobře bavil, ale pokud jste někdy byli na jedné nebo druhé straně sales procesu, asi bych sem měl připsat trigger warning nebo něco 😅 Pro vás to bude jako sledování videí od KRAZAM, chcete se smát, ale místo toho vám vyhrknou opravdové slzy a jdete si domluvit další sezení na terapii. matduggan.com/stop-trying-to-s… #links

Včera jsem si pustil tuhle rozhlasovku na spaní. Sice jsem u toho neusnul, ale děsně mě to bavilo až do konce.
Skvělé herecké obsazení, oddychové a vtipné téma...♥️

just discovered some very cool new projects:
git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/b…
aerogramme.deuxfleurs.fr/

aerogramme is a proxy for imap and caldav that offers encryption and some security guarantees

bagage is webdav with an s3 backend

this is all based on garage which works great on commodity hardware. you could rent a $5/mo/tb vps from hosthatch and have decently good secure, open source, cloud storage of all the above

Hi. Thanks for sharing this demo. This sounds really cool. When I went to the Amazon link, there was one product, the checkbox of which was checked, it was about $18. The other product, said USB/USB-C $25.99 with 13 percent savings $29.99 he said it was about $30, so I'm assuming that he's referring to the second product. Do you know the difference between the two products, just curious?

Come visit the #Energy devroom at #FOSDEM on Sunday. We have 24 presentation listed, with topics ranging from #GreenIT to #HomeAutomation, #ClimateChange and cool hardware projects like repurposing #EV car batteries fosdem.org/2025/schedule/track…

#introduction

Hi everyone! Thought I'd resend my introduction after not being active for who knows how long. And as far as I'm aware, on this server I haven't even introduced myself yet.
I'm Nikolett from Hungary. I used to have an account on Mastodon, but I wasn't that interested in the whole Fediverse thing back then.
Now I'm 22 years old. I'm Hungarian, but I'm very interested in slavic languages and culture. I speak Russian fluently, as well as Polish, but in the latter I'm a beginner. I studied Russian at university for 4 years, and now I'm an official translator.
I am very interested in music: I play piano, as well as a little guitar, and sing in my freetime. I love animals; I have a black cat who has been part of my life for 12 years.
I like technology and IT. I want to learn programming as a hobby, but no one is teaching me yet. I also really like retro, old things.
I also like to play computer games, although I have a hard time losing. 😊
I usually smile because it's important for me to connect with people and for everyone to feel comfortable talking to me.
What I don't think is worth hiding is that I am blind. But that fact doesn't stop me from doing almost everything I set my mind to.
I'm just happy to be here! 😊
