Hi, everyone. My name is Jean. Looking to connect with people here! I will follow you back! :D

Recently finished a PhD in cybersecurity, but quit academia right away. I just can't work there lol. I work in data by day, but Im a fulltime human rights activist and have spoken at various fora against digital dictatorship and BigTech's regulatory capture. I am a socialist and I have been for awhile now. I am working closely with various grassroot movement particularly within the digital rights/labour space.

I am into FLOSS, #privacy and #humanrights. I have foul mouth and I own it. Outside of my activism, I enjoy walking my dog, Heidi, #vegan food, gaming, programming #python, #dadjokes and makeup.

Hey, hi there 👋 yeah, you 🫵

It's almost Follow Friday and you seem pretty awesome

So if I don't follow you or boost your stuff, it's probably because you don't regularly include alt-text on your pictures or videos.

You see, I have visually impaired followers, and I like the stuff I share to be accessible to them.

I also won't boost things without reasonable CWs for similar reasons—I have followers that don't want to see some of that shit, and I want to keep their Fedi feeds a safe space.

Thx! I look forward to boosting your stuff soon 💕

No es norma pero se va convirtiendo en convención: nuestros fediversantes ciegos no suelen personalizar su avatar, les queda el predeterminado (imagen adjunta).

Tiene lógica y está chido porque nos permite identificar de un vistazo cuando conversamos con quien tiene esa discapacidad.

Les invito a que, si no son ciegos, personalicen su avatar tan pronto como puedan.
