Hi #fediverse. We need to talk about something.
While browsing the Fediverse today it appears most people here have never tried to pick up a duck or swan. Like, not even once during their childhood.
Some people say they've not even touched a living chicken!
My hypothesis is that people here get upset about whatever hypothesis I present so I'll shutup on this.
🦆 🦢
Have you try pick up a duck or swan?
Please boost for scientific accuracy (or don't, it's your choice, that #science for you!)
| yes, duck: | 154 |
| yes, swan: | 2 |
| yes, duck & swan: | 22 |
| no: | 393 |

RE: https://mastodon.social/@_elena/116368379234020589
here it goes:
what surprises me about the #fediverse is the diversity of ages. am turning 60 and there’s A LOT of folks here 10-20 years older.
so if #Mastodon #Lemmy #Pixelfed aren't just scripty kids but also grandparents, who’s here?
people finding their communities without shitty techbro algorithms.
the fediverse is a new era of #Luddites. we are not here to serve the interests of capitalists. we’re here for the #anarchy of community; because celebrating our Humanity is punk as fuck.
Dear Fedi friends,
Next week I have the honor of doing a presentation advocating for the Fediverse in a really prestigious venue (I can't share more now, but I will after it takes place).
I'm currently working on slides and I would love to hear testimonies from YOU. Why the Fediverse is so special to you in contrast to Big Tech platforms (bonus points if you speak French & can reply en français).
I'll share a selection of your testimonies in my slideshow presentation.
Merci beaucoup ❤️

I've seen some great success stories with #MutualAid and have been warmed by the generosity and support that define #Mastodon and the larger #Fediverse. Today, as we all reel from the knowledge that life will only get harder now, I wonder if you're able to help make today a little easier for Yureii.

To people who love publishing pictures and videos, #HolosSocial allows you to connect your S3 or WebDAV cloud so your media are served directly from your own storage across the Fediverse.
As a direct consequence, there is no size limit and videos are automatically transcoded by your device (from 854p to 1920p depending on your choice).
Every feature in #Holos is built toward full independence on the #Fediverse.
Your phone is a window into your life. Are you sure the world can't see through it? 👀
Tomorrow, ep.21 of Impractical Privacy.
We go beyond apps and settings to look at the cellular network itself
We're talking about:
📡 IMSI Catchers
🌐 SS7 Exploits
📉 The 5G Myth
The infrastructure was built in an era of trust. That era is over.

Im #Fediverse gibt es kein Algorithmus, das bedeutet, dass jeder von uns selber die Verantwortung hat eine ausreichende Anzahl von Nutzerkonten zu folgen. Und jemanden zurückfolgen somit alles gut funktioniert. Wir machen es alle zusammen, sonst bleibt die Timeline leer.
@KurtKettler @enigma
We change the oil in our cars. We clean our houses. But we rarely clean our digital footprints. 🧹
Episode 20 of #ImpracticalPrivacy introduces the concept of the "Maintenance Window."
Privacy isn't a destination; it's a routine. • Monthly cache purges • Quarterly permission audits • Annual "Zombie Account" hunts
If you aren't maintaining your perimeter, you're just waiting for a breach.
