… now I just need to figure out how to say the things I want to share. I have most of the words and ideas in my head, but not yet in the right sequence!

I was interviewed for a piece in VOLUME, the biennale architecture and art journal. The latest edition is themed around “Bursting Bubbles”. Bonus illustration via @_elena This is the physical copy, I think it may be online in the future, not sure.https://archis.org/dossier/bursting-bubbles/

Letting domain names expire is my new year’s jam, apparently. Going to attempt (!) to be more mindful about what I’m actually using. Wish me luck!

(for those that remember the "Choose Life" monologue from _Trainspotting_)--- Choose Mastodon. Choose the Fediverse.Choose curiosity over virality. Boost because you care. Follow because you’re interested. Be niche. Be human.Choose Freedom.--- #FediforumFriday

(I'm working on some longer variations, but thought I'd put this out there in the meantime!)

Choose connection over noise, authenticity over performance, and hope over hype.[please don't suggest sweary or adult additions, I'm keeping this clean]

Choose a thousand small communities instead of one loud machine. Choose timelines that listen. Choose to build together. Choose a human web.

Choose places where your words aren’t metrics and your friends aren't a product. Choose open standards. Choose an internet that doesn't depend on one billionaire's mood. Choose moderation with local norms over faceless algorithms.[apart from open standards, I think these could do with some work]

Choose creativity. Choose interoperability instead of being walled in or caged. Choose joy. Choose The Indie Beat!

RE: https://macaw.social/@andypiper/115864851606201165I think I found a way to keep within the same framing as the original, but to not veer to nihilism at the end.---So why choose any of this, when it’s easier not to?Because caring is the point.Because building together beats shouting alone.Because the best places don’t trap you - they let you choose.

@amerika you've earned yourself a block, goodbye, you've been most unhelpful.

Please note some last minute schedule changes to the #SocialWeb Devroom in room H.2215 at #FOSDEM - a few talks have shifted their times a little to cover spaces from that could not be presented https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/track/social-web/

I like this "simply by copying the same stacks and calling them European, doesn't change anything" - we have a stack, and it is open and commons-oriented @samvie #FOSDEM #SocialWeb
