    The birdsite : how it’s going versus what’s coming to hunt the Mollusk nights.

    The Fediverse will thrive just fine, people will take control the way they want but one thing is very clear, #Meta is coming to Mwitter self-suicide.

    Twitter absurd limiting rules edicted by the Mollusk today Apparently this is Project92 screenshota from today.

    France… Le décalage entre les gouvernants et les gouvernés… Comment parler du déni de société ? Comment aborder la violence d’un système envers celleux qui ne la subissent pas ?

    Ce qu’il se passe aujourd’hui a été planté il y a longtemps. Le réveil est brutal.

    See this kind of post on the #threadiverse? That’s the kind of post that used to live on #reddit.

    It’s now being crafted on the open web and it’s delicious!

    I still think there is a place for a self-hosted open source FriendFeed, with #activitypub and #webmentions on top, there is still room for a decentralized social feed reader that can mix all kinds of feed sources.

    Tragic story, I’m still hurt, not because I didn’t find my own ways to build my feed reader (and have been using consistently ever since) but this story encapsulate the blindness of big tech better than anything else.

    And 2 decades later, guess how I’m consuming the most out of Reddit and now Kbin/Lemmy and the fediverse? An RSS feed reader, that’s right!

    Add to it a dash of webmentions and social reactions, without owning the social graph and you have probably the direction at which the open web is heading to, right now.

    And this time, neither, Google, Facebook or Reddit or Twitter will be part of it, because they are blind but above all because people want something else.

    And they want to define and own it.

    Who killed Google Reader? Ten years after its untimely death, the team that built the much-beloved feed reader reflects on what went wrong and what could have been.

Demain, une k7 áudio monologue de Robert Spatz de 1h au Palais de Justice de Liège, suivi d’un audio de 17 minutes pour se justifier de la débilité de son monologue. Continue reading →

    Having a fight against #Firefox freaking out when entering a locally mounted #webdav folder, from which Firefox should simply read the damn file and upload it.

    Instead? Total freeze of Firefox and to some degree the entire system. It’s absurd!
