As I understand, its an ATproto instance separate from Bluesky. Racially self segregated is a weird phrase and a wrong assumption. You don’t to black to join but is a focused on black cultures and communities

If they lock bootloaders, whats the best way to force it work even the vendors don’t want it to?

fuck google!

Who can I donate to that is working on making alternative OS accessible on android or iphones?

I know there are alternative OS already out there but they aren’t as universally accessible compared to how Linux can run on any PC.

As a non technical person, I think any tool that would make local hosting easier for laypeople like myself is great! I hope everything works out for you and localhostinger becomes a thing. I particularly like the “The app store idea” version a lot!

If I can share a few books I’ve really enjoyed:

So Long a Letter (1979) - Mariama Ba

The Old Drift (2019) - Namwali Serpell

Tekusat (ትኩሳት) (1997) - Sebhat Gebre-Egzhiaber

Things Fall Apart (1958) - Chinua Achebe

Patchwork (2011) - Ellen Banda-Aaku

The Wedding of Zein (1966) - Tayeb Salih

This is a good point. I wonder why this isn’t the default

Is Zohran back in NYC or is this recorded before he left for Uganda?

I have almost subscription on Mastodon too. But I’ve put in a separate list so I can see all the peertube updates in one place

Thanks so much for the detailed response! I will give Peertube picks a shot. I agree with you on word of mouth, so far I’m finding things through suggestion on here and Mastadon.

Did this actually happen in the show or is it just a meme? Either way it’s hilarious!

I’m surprised that its only 30 microns. The current govt seemed very adamant about removing plastic shopping bags waste. Although in my experience the most common shopping bags in the Ethiopia are much thinner than other countries (I would guess that they are probably only 30 microns) it would just mean the plastic producers would just shift to creating thicker bags

Neil DeGrasse Tyson has a Phd in astrophysics and he has published a lot of papers. He is a scientist and a science communicator. Neil DeGrasse Tyson and Bill Nye are not the same.

Thanks for the answer. This might be a dumb question but what does that mean exactly? Is Flipboard approaching the different media outlets and offering to share their content on Flipboard’s instance? If so, what do the media outlets get out of using flipboard versus their own instance or a more generic instance like mastadon.social?

How come so many of them are on flipboard? I wonder why they don’t run their own instances

This is amazing!!

When is his position up for election? New blood needs to primary this guy

I like this idea alot! Since we’re on the fediverse, we are doing some of the work. What else can I do to help rewild the internet

I really like the app too and I like the improvements they are focusing:

Goal #1: Free PeerTube “Premium” for the people €15,000

Play videos in background
Cast your videos to your TV
Get notified of newly released content
Change the video definition

Goal #2: Share videos from your pocket €35,000

Manage all channels of your account
Edit video chapters, subtitles, info, etc.
Get detailed stats of your content
Upload new videos from your mobile

Goal #3: Livestream from your mobile €55,000

Set up & manage livestream
Use device cameras & connection
Stream live from your hand
No more need for a secondary mobile app dedicated to live streams

Plus on the fireside fedi interview, a rep from peertube said that they would make these improvements whether or not they hit the fundraising goals but the new funds would help

This sucks but I think this will lead to a Youtube exodus and other platforms like Peertube will creator and user base will grow

Let’s go!!!
