RE: social.tchncs.de/@restless/115…

Wenn wir das mit der digitalen Unabhängigkeit ernst meinen ist #Signal einfach nur eine Ablenkung.

#Quicksy hingegen ist ein wirklicher Schritt in die richtige Richtung. Quicksy ist so konzipiert, dass man darüber hinaus wächst und ein nahtloser Übergang zu #Conversations_im möglich ist.
Quicksy ist die Einstiegsdroge für wirklich unabhängiges Instant Messaging mit #XMPP.

Der #DiDay und die Messenger - Eine einfache Lösung? Schön wäre ja, wenn mehr Menschen zu offenen, föderierten Messengern wie Matrix oder XMPP wechseln würden. Die grösste Hürde bleibt oft: Menschen finden. Ich habe nun Quicksy ausprobiert.

So I don't know how to describe these, but what are the things that start with colon and then stuff after, like I think I saw like : blobcatrainbow or something. Are these instance specific emoji? Do they visually show pictures? Because with a screen reader I just hear the text and don't know what to make of them. #emoji #emojis

It would take the average American driver over 40 years to burn as much fuel as a single flight of a Boeing Pegasus refueling tanker. No amount of recycling your cans and bottles is ever going to compete with these numbers.

Trump now claims he will introduce tariffs on countries that does not support his plans to take over Greenland.

Two points:

— The US Supreme Court is currently evaluating whether Trump's tariffs are even legal, so it is not even certain that Trump can do this.
— If Trump imposes these tariffs, the EU will likely change the soft approach to Trump, immediately introducing reciprocal tariffs from the entire union, at which point Trump might fold, as he did with China.
