  1. See Red Women’s Workshop, Capitalism Also Depends on Domestic Labor screenprint, London, 1975

    In 1974, a group of artists founded the See Red Women’s Workshop to further the women’s liberation movement. Their posters address gender discrepancies in pay, capitalism’s reliance on unpaid homekeeping and childrearing, sexist depictions in advertising, and uniting women against racism.⁠

  3. CW: [Long Post] Guide to Cleanly Archiving Aethy Profiles (including Text!)

    How to Archive Your Text Posts on Aethy

    Setup

    1. On firefox, download this extensionaddons.mozilla.org/en-US/firef
    2. (Optional) download the hide images extension to make the following steps easier and faster to load addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firef
    3. Change your preferences (The gears to the left of your icon) and in the"Posts" tab, uncheck collapsed posts and set Content Visibility to visible (you can change it back after the archiving)

    Loading

    1. Navigate to your hide boosts page https://aethy.com/@YOURNAME/hide_boosts4a. (Optional) Turn on The Hide Images extension on this page to make the future loading faster (The images will still be downloaded)
    2. Right click on the "Hide Boosts" tab and go to the re-pagination menu item, and click "Load All"
    3. Scroll down to the bottom of the page or press the "End" key to activate the infinite scroll feature. (If you see a purple loading bar in the top left repeatedly filling, you've done it right)
    4. Get a snack, walk away, wait for it to do its thing (You're allowed to switch tabs and it will load in the background) Sometimes you may have to press the end key again for it to continue loading, but just keep an eye out for your first post or oldest post you want to save

    Saving

    1. Once you've reached the beginning of your blog, right click somewhere on the page and select "Save Page As" and look for a place to save it onto your computer
    2. Once it has downloaded, open the htm file in firefox. 9a. It's gonna look janky as hell right now, especially if you've had emojis in your username, it'll be between every post. To get rid of the excess images if you'd like, enter the files folder of the htm page (it will be in the same location as where you saved the htm file, just have all the media in its own folder with the same name)9b. You can safely delete all sfg files, duplicates or any other superfluous content you already have from the basic archive
    3. Turn on "Reader View" either by clicking the icon in the url bar or pressing F9
    4. CTRL + A and Ctrl + V (Select All and Paste) into a text editor of your choice (Drive, Obsidian, Notepad)

    Voila, you have just archived all your text posts.

    Additional Notes

    • Why do this when you have the inhouse mastodon archive? If you take a look at the archive, they are json files and they fucking SUCK to try to navigate to look at all your posts in an easy format. And in the situation of bookmarks, they straight up only link to the posts, what good is that?
    • This process will include Followers Only and Unlisted Posts but not replies from what I can tell. However, you can do this on anybody's page you have access to, on aethy or off.
    • This guide is also meant to be performed from the aethy site itself. You should also be able to do this on pages via cubhub.social for any other page it federates with, once aethy is gone
    • For reference of time this takes, I had 12,000 posts and used the hide images addon before starting the process. In the time it took to go to the bathroom and come back it had finished. All images were still downloaded into the files folder.

    Final Thoughts

    Fandom history is so important. With the state of crushing culture pushing us to further and darker corners away from each other, lost media is a heart breaking side effect of fractured communities. If you love someones posts, save them! You never know if one day it'll simply be gone. If you like looking back at your old time capsules, backup your activities! By keeping the memories of our resistance alive, we can keep going on.

  19. @fribbledom
    On a related note, we had an idea on Fedi tonight while talking to Adam, to use a hosts.txt file in a browser to #strikethrough links that are at bad domains (see #GAFAM, #Twitter etc).

    Are there any #openSource extensions that do this? It would be great if when the user hovers over the link a little popup from the extension might say which rule is being broken (eg. t.co breaks "Twitter" rule)

    Even better at the OS level but that might break software connections.

  20. @adinfinitum
    If only we could help people to forget Amazon, Google and Facebook. *wink*

    Seriously though, if a person is using Tor, those listings should all be crossed out with a #strikethrough <del> element.

    Maybe something to build into #Tor?

    An addon perhaps.

    Hmm.

    Add a hosts file to a browser. How did we not think of this sooner?
