@snikket_im Running Snikket on my server. I don't see any member having admin access in the groups formed by circles. So I cannot invite a person to the circles who is using another XMPP server.

Me and some other people from Free Software Community are planning to release a privacy-respecting free software chatting app, named Prav (means pigeon in Malayalam language) for Indian users, which would be interoperable with XMPP. We want more people to get involved because we want to have democratic decision making process. Please visit the website https://prav.app. Also, please share with your contacts.#FreeSoftware #opensource #XMPP

Github(a website where people share their project's source code) suspended accounts of Russian developers due to US sanctions on Russia. https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/github-suspends-accounts-of-russian-devs-at-sanctioned-companies/This highlights the problem with centralized services and depending on a single country for all the software needs.

Update:It has been almost 5 months since I started running a Snikket server. I only had to update once and that was very easy. I faced no issues as of now on the server side. The uptime has been 100%.This is a blog post I have written on my experience https://fsci.in/blog/snikket-experience/I found @snikket_im project chatroom as very helping and welcoming. They try their best to help newbies in self-hosting, which usually takes a lot of patience.#snikket #XMPP #decentralization #FreeSoftware

@arh Interesting "The Roe effect is a hypothesis explaining why the practice of abortion will eventually lead to abortion being restricted or outlawed. The hypothesis is that people in favor of abortion rights will not parent as many children when abortion is legal, and since children tend to have similar views to their parents eventually voters will not support abortion rights"source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roe_v._Wade

"If you gave a (YouTube) Creator even one dollar as a donation, that is more than they will make from you watching years of ads on their content. The likelihood that I will ever outearn a one dollar donation from you; even if you've been watching ads since I started the channel in 2012, is slim to none! If you really like the people you watch, give them a dollar. That is nicer to the Creator than a year of sitting through ads or YouTube Red." - Louis Rossmann from https://yewtu.be/watch?v=oV3s_sESnmE

@badrihippo runs this magazine called Snipette which posts interesting articles on science behind day to day life. I just learnt science behind why airline food tastes bad https://www.snipettemag.com/tomato-juice/. It's awesome. Check out https://www.snipettemag.com/.
