  1. @Techaltar

    So I got a #pixel7 for the purpose of running #GraphenOS. I used it for a while without the google play stuff and I am pretty sure it was able to get three days of battery quite easily. That did come with the downside of some apps not having their notifications work as well.

  2. @Techaltar @dalan Following up on the "scroll past on #youtube to watch on #nebula" topic - I'd love to see a browser extension/ #revanced patch/etc. that automatically marked videos watched on YT, and maybe even gave them a thumbs up.

    It could be either when I watch the same video on nebula, or simpler, just as soon as the video appears on the YT channel/playlist (on the assumption I will watch it on nebula).

    I want to both support the creator and train YT to recommend more like it to me.

  3. @Techaltar @tiltfive is an augmented reality system, that can be played with multiple players without being completely alienated from your physically neighbouring friends and surrounding environment.

    I do not know how you can try it out.You can buy it from their website I guess, or if you do not have the funding maybe contact the #TiltFive company for a temporary test model for review...? 🤷

  4. @Techaltar I'm gonna keep buying my ebikes from countries that don't have regulations like #bafang

  5. @Techaltar after hearing about #curiositystream and #nebula from you for years, I decided to go for it finally. Since I don’t celebrate Christmas, this give me a good long weekend digging into content. Thanks dude! Happy holidays!

  6. @thibaultmol @Techaltar If you're comfortable with using a modded APK, #morphe automatically does that (besides the rest) - it's similar to #revanced. However I also love Léon sm. :blobaww:

  7. RE: mas.to/@Techaltar/115694998710

    The US’s geopolitical maneuvers—real or perceived—remind us that sovereignty isn’t a gift; it’s a practice.
    If tech stacks can be weaponized or alliances destabilized, the question isn’t whether we’ll take sovereignty seriously, but who gets to define it.

    @Techaltar post hits the nerve: states guard borders and currencies, yet outsource the foundations of modern life—software, hardware, and data—to a handful of corporate monopolies. That’s not just technical risk; it’s political dependence.

    Sovereignty today isn’t about flags or treaties. It’s control over protocols, algorithms, and the tools that shape how societies think and act. FLOSS and open hardware aren’t ideological luxuries—they’re the only credible path to digital self-determination.

    Relying on closed, proprietary stacks means sovereignty on lease. When platforms can silence nations, throttle access, or hide backdoors, sovereignty becomes a slogan, not a system.

    Institutions rarely lead change; they react when crises force the issue. Real transformation starts bottom-up—from a culture that values curiosity over convenience, and commons over consumption.

    So what does it mean to take sovereignty seriously?

    1. Treat open technology as public infrastructure.
    Fund FLOSS and open hardware like we fund roads and clinics—stable, public investment. Tools like open-source procurement mandates, R&D tax credits, and redirecting portions of defense or digital transition budgets can anchor this shift.
    But funding is not ownership: transparency laws and community-led governance must ensure open projects don’t become state surveillance tools.

    2. Make tech literacy a civic right.
    Sovereignty requires a public that understands the tools it depends on—not just code, but critical thinking about systems, incentives, and control. Tech education should be public, accessible, and lifelong.

    3. Build alternatives, not only critiques.
    The Fediverse, RISC-V, Framework, and Fairphone aren’t fringe—they prove ethical, functional alternatives exist. The goal isn’t purity; it’s adoption. Use and fund the systems you want to survive.

    4. Recognize that openness ≠ isolation.
    Open-source is interdependence under shared, auditable terms. Supporting open-source hubs in the Global South and funding translation, localization, and inclusive participation ensures sovereignty isn’t just for wealthy nations.

    Regulation like the GDPR is a start, but true sovereignty means owning the stack, not patching around its edges.

    The US’s geopolitical games may hasten this reckoning, but waiting guarantees dependency. Treat open-source as critical infrastructure now—not for ideology’s sake, but survival’s.

    Because digital sovereignty isn’t a speech or a policy.
    It’s something we build, line by line, together.

  8. All major economies are trying to move away from Visa and Mastercard.

    Compared to other parts of the world, however, Europe is progressing slowly. Hopefully, we can soon launch the European Credit Card and Circuit for debit card payments to serve as an alternative to Visa, Mastercard, and Maestro.

  10. Cuando nuestros representantes no tienen ambición ocurren estas cosas: que un youtuber tiene más hoja de ruta sobre cómo desarrollar la #autonomía estratégica de la #UE que la propia Comisión Europea.

    Me encanta lo expuesto, especialmente en el área de soberanía tecnológica @Techaltar

  11. Insanely annoying that my inbox is completely flooded with emails like this. Starts off as if it was a real email responding to a real video I made, then transitions to a completely unrelated sales pitch. I hate that AI is making it trivially easy to generate mountains of this trash which makes it super hard to filter out stuff that comes from people who actually want to contact me about something useful

  12. Ah, another tech altruist explaining why they gave away the web for free, because apparently the world needed more digital clutter 🤡🌐. Meanwhile, let's all take a moment to thank them for the infinite pop-ups and endless cookie notifications 🙄🍪.
