#rightsline — Public Fediverse posts on home.social

@praveen @athulvis @mostlyharmless @guusdk @fossunited @libreinator @untrusem When our first members arrived, the auditorium was empty...but not for long. By the time we figured out how to turn on the projector, the room was filled with curious faces waiting for us to begin.

@ravi and @badrihippo emphasised the importance of Prav, sharing their personal stories and prompting the audience to do the same. We also had an interesting discussion about why we chose #XMPP as our protocol instead of #matrix

This was followed by Anuvind from @sflcin introducing #RightsLine, a front desk for netizens to get legal help in case of harassment, unfair removal of content, fraud, or any other digital troubles. During question time, we also had a brief discussion about #UPI, the centralised payments system in India that is being marketed as an “open” solution
