  1. This month, I’m helping 3 local businesses in Glen Eira and Port Phillip go "Sovereign." We’ll audit your tech stack, reduce your international data exposure, and move you toward tools you actually own. If you’re ready to go local and go people, DM me "LOCAL" and let’s grab a coffee.

  2. There’s a myth that "Big Tech" is more secure because they are big. In reality, their complexity is their weakness. Open-source tools are transparent—thousands of eyes can see the code, meaning vulnerabilities are found and fixed by the community, not hidden by a corporate PR department. Simple, local, and secure.

  3. People often ask why I’m so vocal about the Fediverse and decentralized social media. It’s simple: I believe the "town square" shouldn't be owned by a single global corporation. In Glen Eira and Port Phillip, we value our local community hubs—our digital hubs should be no different. No algorithms, no tracking, just people.

  4. Imagine a business where you aren't worried about the next data breach from a global provider or a sudden price hike. That’s the peace of mind that comes with digital sovereignty. It’s not just tech; it’s business insurance for the modern age.

  5. Every dollar spent on international tech subscriptions is a dollar that leaves our local economy. By choosing local IT experts and open-source tools, we reinvest in Glen Eira and Port Phillip. Let’s keep our community's digital wealth right here.


  6. As a "vibe coder," I believe tech should feel right. It should align with your business values, not just a corporate bottom line. We’re building a tech ecosystem in Melbourne that prioritises authenticity and local connection over global tracking. Let’s build something real.

  7. Digital Sovereignty sounds complex, but it’s simple: It’s the difference between renting your business tools and owning them. When the biggest social media providers change their algorithms or pricing, you shouldn't have to scramble. By using open-source tools, you own the keys to your kingdom.

  8. Ever tried getting a human on the phone from a Global tech giant when your email goes down?
    Good Luck!
    Local IT means having a partner in your timezone, who knows your neighbourhood. It's about human centric support that values your time over a support ticket number.

  9. @craiglambie42 alcohol and tabaco are also drugs and especially alcohol causes serious harm to families. Even if we know it, banned it in some countries on different levels - it is still there, widely accepted.
    But I’m a little optimistic that at least the harsh addictive algorythms get banned so that the networks get more open.
    Still the most important would be #dataprotection #dataprivacy and #notracking

  10. Saturday morning tech tip: Take 5 minutes to check your "Location History" in your primary mobile account. You’ll likely find a minute-by-minute map of your life stored on a server in another country. Switching to local, privacy-first maps and tools isn't just for "techies"—it’s for anyone who values their digital boundaries.

  11. CW: letter to promote the fedi / shout-out for transit/ cycling/ walking/ neighbourhood accounts

    @unchartedworlds @futurebird
    Cool. I'll hold off on that, then.

    The travel / transit account I follow is really only @notjustbikes

    For topic-specific things I like following hashtags since I then get to see people that I would not normally pick up.

    I can recommend the hashtags: #CrossBorderRail
    #BikeTooter
    #WalkableCities
    #LowCar - actually, rather use #CarFree

    For more information on #SEPA:

    There are currently plans to actually create a "digital €" system, that would allow EU citizens to have a bank account at the European Central Bank. And transfer money between such accounts for free.
    ecb.europa.eu/euro/digital_eur

    I think this would go a great way to wrestle back control from banks and their rent seeking. (With the additional bonus of being "real money", and not just "book money".)

  13. @craiglambie42 we have a lot of feedback like yours. X seems to do data retention. But don't worry, since you are in other's archive, you will still find part of your network (we can rebuild the full network graph from a fraction of the X archives). Moreover, the new release of OpenPortability app of #Jan20 2026 will allow users to explore the full social landscape and connect directly from there. So archives will be less and less needed.

  14. @craiglambie42 : I'm a #GlenEira resident who is tentatively interested, but would be even more interested if your image included alt-text. :)

  15. @craiglambie42 @moellus until now, i was not into hosting server for the fediverse. But it might be interesting for me to take a look at and see, if the #nolto project can be brought to kife again.
    I already operate #odoo community edition on a k8s cluster in my own company and have good exerience in IT Infra and software architecture. Maybe good if others that are interested get together

  16. @craiglambie42 @evischreck As I understand it, #nolto was a vibe coded project, and the developer didn't have the resources to meet the growing demand. Can't say anything more about the code itself.

    I think #ghost and #wordpress are doing that. to pay creators, I think we need a protocol and then an autopay system based on a monthly amount we are willing to give, distributed based on time with a creator's works.
