  1. And I'm not sure that will change soon.

    It's interesting the differences between #Centralised and #Decentralised, even when a centralised app was designed to be against the #censorship of other platforms.

    Something about centralised social media draws in the crowds that Fedi has never really done.

    But that might not be a problem. Maybe Fedi is just a slower process but more resilient in the end.

  2. "Distributed #solar, #wind and #battery systems, which are harder to hit (ed: for us, it would be by weather / natural hazards), quicker to #repair and less reliant on #imported #fuel [than #centralised #systems], you say?

    Rather than many billions (and you KNOW the number will be much higher than this mendacious, corrupt and incompetent Govt is quoting) on a #fossilfuel #import facility? Which may not even be used (and isn't necessary if we sownd the money more wisely)?

    Hrm :P

  4. CW: #Intro to FreeSchool / About my account name...

    Inspired by "Free School" movement in the 60's & 70's... I practice educational living and learning life together towards #DIY / #Caring / #Art of #Life etc: in whatever way that suits and directs the individual.

    More on that 60/70's movement here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_sch

    Text and short-depth understanding isn't doing it for saving humanity. So learning and your own action / direction is important. To get better examples that lies parents were fed or chose not to face.

    #FreeSchool (me) makes #Notes #Quotes about #METAPolitics / #Politics and #Cares for people good #Books #Videos #Talks #Websites

    That's my life in a few keyword sentences.

    ===================

    ☼ MY OFFERS OF FREE TIME ☼
    >> GIVEN TOWARDS FREEDOM <<<
    FREE WORK editing text, pictures, audio, basic video editing. Basically anything considered. Just say it.

    Audio #remixes also found on #FreeSchool hashtag to help keep you working well!

    MORE.... OR JUST RESPOND TO ABOVE PLEASE...

    I feel like Short-text / Short-reading by people directly undervalues people and longer understanding - it's cutting corners reading only short things and proportionally killing the planet / cutting people who write more off.

    That's why I'd like to do audio conversation now... (anytime) so we don't get stuck in the text realm either and just speak lightly in the ethereal / spirit of life.

    People are the depth and action of the culture so if text is not deep enough then culture dies. Audio conversation I have can put back the reality into people.

    Just sticking to yourself dosn't work. We can solve almost everything as our efforts can double if we are relaxed but do it constantly over tiem... it's OK "it's all political" (!) and our opinions too... so letting go too far into "Politics" of "Leaders" is not the way we want to go... as a #centralised system (of control)

    Your decisions can be made and changed doing short depth + short depth (=long!) which can reinforce those bad things less by seeing the depth in tricks (like chess it's "aha! I realise why they made that move now") .

    Don't let "Short-ism" make you think it works for you (it's the opposite). Communicate more and build normal people up. - Increase more #sense and #society but socialising incrementally like at a party.

    The 'human condition' needs A HUMAN WAY OF FIXING THINGS in a social-communal situation... not a ultra-tech way.
    We have #Mastodon and #Jitsi etc - we just need to increase trust step by step and measure ourselves as we go.

    🙎 Develop people, not just the tech! 💻 ✈️ 📱

    I'm working with anyone aligned / those that know themselves or want to as it's a natural human thing we need to solve (not just tech etc).

    Get in touch and even have fun with it all!

    ==============================
    More description
    ==============================

    The Free School movement I feel is "the best way" for people as a transient flexible "school" of fish / people in life because it's YOUR way and your likes mixed in however you want guided by others in the same class or other t give another perspective..

    As long as you trust yourself and trust a few others more while measuring while mixing, then it's all good and essential can't be bad - especially from these distances.

    Opposite of the above would be: working isolated in a loop... without encouraging contact ...working for bad people / state
    ...while not giving back or seeing what others have to give
    ...and reading the news in a bad loop #doomscrolling as I do (and need your help to get out of!) ... only to complain about my adding to it.

    So feeding yourself better comes building others in trust and people upwards not downwards pushing. Therefore:

    Mutuality, Education, and maybe Friendship can help 🎈 WIN:WIN:WIN 🎈 for us all in this world ...or at least #Fediverse to start with.

    📖 Towards a more caring intelligent planet and better mindset of people... but also not over-specialising...

    :ablobwave: I'm here to broaden your like as a friendly person and to encourage your own thoughts *and* action to happen.
    We need to be appreciated and appreciate a few more - that alone is enough!

    More togetherness means more ☑️ correct communication ☑️
    to get there (and balance)...

    Short "ism" or short reading by people kills the planet and those people don't read deeply and fall into newspaper tabloid headlines (also short) and reacting too much almost as an #addiction.

    #CONSTRUCT YOUR #DREAMS !

    Build your dream(s) and maybe mine at the same time (both!).

    Don't be afraid to share - even though it might be natural to try pull back. I don't think there is another way around this by carefully sharing and doing it with bad people filtered out (but not everyone filtered out as we all lose that way being cut off) .

    Aagain measuring me and you (and others) we can avoid killing ourselves and others killing us (directly and indirectly) for profit (it's all linked back to banks and state who as root don't #care). So while we pretend to be '#independent' (which doesn't exist or very lightly does) I think we can truly undo things 1 at a time or just by not using things too much like #AI etc.

    Those who feed from #mainstream (from the people behind it) surely will mess up again and see less and less gains over time). Short-term some AI benefit but long term chained-to-machine type stuff and robots judging us (robots are just people / leaders behind it controlling..)

    🗨️ I reply to your interests and you give some ideas... we do what we can and like... more freely / towards each other's freedoms.

    Consider *developing people* (or just me) at the same time in your work also - not just #developing machine code, but #decent people are the KEY to everything almost FOREMOST...

    If people's lives are machine-like and computer-orientated then don't complain if that's what you get !

    The cold Matrix system is all using $computers and #tech.

    And that tech is being bought or regulated by the likes of #Musk / #Trump / #Bezos etc mostly since they have more leverage against everyone and using #banks also as negative force / debt generators.

    In the end we lose with only tech, even with Mastodon without regular chats!

    (yes computers are too fast and even nice things get used badly but only we can stop it (by developing better people to use better things in a better way). Give me a hammer and I won't break windows.

    Working on better people is the better way at the end..

  5. CW: Social media is an "unhealthy online environment... [MP3 Version]

    @openrightsgroup MP3 Version

    #Social media is an "unhealthy online environment".

    The problem is the #business #model which underpins these #monopolistic platforms to:

    ➡️ promote #ragebait :nes_fire: to rake in the money. 💰

    Jim Killock told #BBC News what needs to be done around #SocialMedia:

    ✅ Competition
    ✅ User empowerment
    #Decentalization / #Decentalized #Platforms

    #OpenRightsGroup #SocialMedia #Health #BBC #JimKillock

    #Decentralised #Platforms / #Decentralisation #Mastodon #Fediverse

    #Audio about #Advertising
    #BusinessModel of #SocialMedia is #Commercial

    My #Answer is building another "society" ON TOP OF #MASTODON #PEERTUBE ETC -

    NOT JUST MORE TECH AND #TECHIES - develop people themselves!

    We're mostly just developing tech and not developing people...

    (and then complaining about #society and people falling for the same traps used by #tech ).

    Without organised #circles or dedicated #talks IN MASTODON (or any #decentalised or #centralised #platform) people do not know how to be nice / what to consider / what to look out for (all normal in new relationships) / what do if this or that... / how to WORK WITH someone new / where and when to go regularly somewhere...

    Some chat happens but is that it as a Mastodon #movement? ❓ (any groups with just a donate button and nobody to talk to)

    Such a lack of depth... 📉

    Without some training, we the society are lost / undirected online / offline. Sorry but best time to plant a tree / invest in a person is now!

    Let's chat (as positive ending and action needed between reader and I - more if we can imagine it).

  6. CW: The Answer is NOT JUST MASTODON either... it's emotional intelligence & incrementing art of friendship at the same time...

    @openrightsgroup @jim GOOD VIDEO...

    SHORT VERSION REPLY

    The #Answer is building another "society" ON TOP OF #MASTODON - rather than just develop more tech.

    We're mostly just developing tech and not developing people

    (and then complaining about #society and people falling for the same traps used by tech ).

    Without organised #circles or dedicated #talks IN MASTODON (on any #decentalised or #centralised #platform) people do not know how to be nice / what to consider / what to look out for that's normal in new relationships / what do if this or that... / how to do it WITH someone there / where to go regularly...

    Ok some chat happens... but is that it for Mastodon as a #movement? ❓
    Such a lack of depth...

    Without some training, we're lost / undirected online. Sorry.

    And let chat (positive ending / action needed).

    ===============
    LONGER VERSION:
    ===============

    Rather than using social media for mostly #hating or fearing things (#Trump #Musk #Bezos #apple #news etc)... build our own society or just increment friendships and trust (must be a way).

    Develop better people AT THE SAME TIME. Not just develop tech...

    Time to invest in people.
    Time invested in people gives back in ways to #community [opportunity, work, listening, tutoring/teaching, other coincidental help / better examples / daily place to go to].

    Developing people is the solution now we have the #Technology ....
    ➡️ (i.e. #MASTODON + #JITSI is ENOUGH to heal / speak / listen / send / receive))

    OR #MASTODON = TEXT / PIC
    + #JITSI = AUDIO / VIDEO
    + #NEXTCLOUD = FILES

    Develop caring CIRCLES OF people and everything else will come better with it. Might seem a long investment but we have to do the long work anyway because cutting corners and is cutting ourselves off with #short #textism.

    Need to be dedicate to people PERSONAL #CARING IN #CIRCLES.
    ⭕ ↔️ 🔁

    The Answer is NOT JUST MASTODON and leaving people to their quite poor levels of friendliness and own fear... !
    (that's why scratching the surface you can find people are JUST LIKE ON #twitter sometimes once we get deeper in #comments and #suggestions).

    it's emotional intelligence & incrementing the #art of #friendship and #courage... at the same time as having Mastodon... CIRCLES. ⭕ ↔️ 🔁

    ( using Jitsi #chat rooms for example jitsi.freifunk-duesseldorf.de/ )

    Building #Emotional #Intelligence + Friendships
    = #Intelligent People
    = #Better #humanity

    #FREESCHOOL ANYONE?

    People need to come #together (#decentalized or not that's the aim!)

    ===================
    P.S # JITSI CHAT = INSTANT!

    2 CLICKS, NO INSTALL, NO REG, NO GOOGLE ACC, NO ZOOM INSTALL, ANY PLATFORM!

  7. Update – We are in the process of restoring the matrix.org database from a backup | …REMEMBER, KIDS, JUST BECAUSE IT SAYS IT’S DECENTRALISED DOESN’T MEAN IT’S DISTRIBUTED

    All forms of federated protocol are the worst bits of centralisation combined with the worst bits of distribution.

  8. @nemobis Yes, I would be really interested about the all-included numbers. I think as a community we should make sure that whatever replaced #centralised #bigtech platforms isn't worse in terms of #climate impact.

  10. Nothing shows more how #centralised the web has become than one of the major #cloud providers taking a big chunk of your favourite sites with it whenever it has a problem.

    Remember when a big selling point of the internet was that a big chunk could be destroyed and most things would just keep running and the damage would be routed around?

    I miss that #decentralised internet.

  11. CW: Social media politics

    #Mastodon really reminds me of the early days of #netneutrality conversations where, if I recall correctly, internet providers were considering varying internet speeds in favour of the corporations and leaving individual websites with less. Before we know it, #Centralised #socialmedia snuck in, let centralised algorithm control what people see. #Opensource social media is bringing net neutrality back to the people.

  13. “Post” looks like the Burger King that swipes into the place after McDonald’s moved out.

    I don’t see a way how they can be different than Twitter, if their platform is centralised, inevitably ending up using the same ad-driven business model.

    The way how you structure a platform like this from the start decides over your trajectory. It’s not something you can pivot later on.

    #Post #Twitter #RIPTwitter #ElonMusk #Centralised #Centralist #Capitalism

  14. I see new Twitter replacements popping up like mushrooms from the ground. All centralised. They have in common that they have no clue how to grow without a financing advertising model.

  15. #CBDC could be #centralised, where transactions are recorded in ledgers managed by central banks that also provide user-facing services; or #decentralised, where a central bank sets rules for settlement of transactions that are then recorded by users or financial intermediaries⬇️

    Haha, yes Michael!!

    And that gif goes well alongside our, "Oh you mean that #etheriumScam" tee.

    Was it #MaxKeiser whose been saying for a year now that etherium is a #centralised trap? Lol

  17. #Australia could show global leadership by not exporting #uranium for harmful, wasteful, unsustainable, costly, #centralised, corrupting #nuclearEnergy. The only benefit one can get from uranium is #chemotherapy treatments.

    …but Australians have difficulty grasping good #leadership.

    #KevinRudd was the last time Australia had a leader, and look what we let #RupertMurdoch and the #corporateOverlords do to him.

  18. Hearing that #Google went down today warms our cold cold heart.

    Knowing that people could not control their home appliances was equally glorious. Highly #centralised monopolies are wrong. Add this to any future Amazon, Facebook and Cloudfare #antitrust procedings.

    More stories like this please *wink*

    #StreetComplete does sound neat. :P

    Where are the photos hosted? Has a decentralised system been constructed for it yet? There was a #centralised service called #Mapillary, we were mildly suspicious of it from the moment we saw it. They subsequently got bought out by #Facebook.

    Instinct+1

    If its not decentralised yet maybe a #placeDisplay system might be good in #ActivityPub? We'll need to do some research perhaps?

    @clayton

  20. Tariff us, #tariff you.

    But could this #AuChina #tradeWar lead to adopting the most destructive, #unsustainable, #unhealthy, peaceThreatening and highly #centralised, #energy of all — #nuclearEnergy?

    Given that #China are going #nuclear. Rather than try to #trade with them maybe an #embargo is for the best?

    Can #Australia reduce #uranium exports, only enough for #radiationTreatment? Thoughts?

    #TorBrowser ergo #Firefox.

    A big undertaking. Maybe two modes an auto-mode that fetches a list of instances from searx.space. And a manual mode with a button that says Add/remove searx instances?

    On Firefox, there is another issue related to #DNSOverHTTPS (#DoH) being sent to a #centralised resolver, #Cloudflare. It can be switched off so…(1/4)

    Sadly most #socialMedia platforms today, which are #centralised, like #Facebook and #Twitter are now indoctrination tools also.

    Some like to use the term '#brainwashing', rather than 'indoctrination' however the term brainwashing implies a simple process that works the same way on everyone.

    The process is not simple!

    It requires a constant bombardment of information, calling to action (#triggering) different people in different ways. As you can imagine, to keep...(6/9)

    In past centuries the church performed the function of #fertility booster. Today's more complex society requires more complex #indoctrination methods. Hollywood and #corporateMedia serve this end. Look how they glamorise #megacities, war, #vices (especially #smoking) and open-borders. Oh and the character will never get an abortion (the alternative to this rule is the #PopulationMediaCenter, #PMC).

  26. @Mikoto @nitox @jookia The difference is that you can't use the coins, but they don't go away. You don't have to spend them. With #Bitcoin, you have to spend them. If you spend your bitcoins to mine, you will spend the majority on electricity. In a frictionless economy, you'd just break-even.

    > You have to #own #real-life #money instead, which is already quite #centralised.

    That's a broken argument.

    > #anal

    That's very mature.
