       Crazy.I never would have thought how important the #Fediverse would become as one of the last communication networks that are not controlled by governments, directly or indirectlyEspecially in times like now when almost all other ones are kissing the ringBillionaires who are in control of most of our daily communication should not be trusted, our most valued digital forms of connection should be in control of the people like you and meThank you for being part of this❤️

       @stux happy to be here, and it really hasn’t taken me long to get this back to what twitter was when I loved it.Real people ✅Scientists ✅Academics ✅Authors ✅Tech literate ✅✅✅Journalists ✅ (good ones anyway)News ✅ (see above)Jokes ✅NGOs ✅No algorithm filter ✅Just missing calling politicians (their social media teams at any rate) out on their shit directly. But they have email.

       (2/?)But in practice there are many legacy cultural barriers holding this back;* entrenched union and co-op dependence on proprietary software/services, and a generation of Boomer/GenX techies trained only on that tech* anti-union techies, who don't yet understand that they're workers, not the digital equivalent of medieval cathedral builders* anti-union attitudes among activists, who see co-ops as a replacement for unions* unionists who write off co-ops as "middle class" activism

       (3/3)There's a lot of work to be done to address misconceptions, build trust, and develop 21st century forms of software freedom activism, unionism and co-operativismo that bring all 3 into alignment.Unions need to be helping their members join and create co-ops.Co-op workers need to be joining unions, especially new ones, and helping these develop radically democratic, member-driven forms of decision-making and campaigning.Software freedom activists need to be supporting both.

       @stux Now, the same decentralization should be applied to politics. Districts (each about maybe 20k-50k inhabitants in size) should have the legal right to opt out of unwanted rules from upper levels of government, if a local referendum says so.

       @stux As the Space Nazi continues to chase more and more legitimate sources away from the hellsite, I imagine it will only get better. Although I must admit I’m a little dismayed at the glee so many sources I follow express at switching to BS-ky. I wish they be coming here as well.
