#TechShowerThoughts: Maybe we need to start reporting proprietary service dependencies in Free Code components as bug? The vast majority of them are dependencies on DataFarming services owned by fascistern media corporations;

So I think it would even be fair to characterise them as security vulnerabilities. Especially given that they're often introduced via the software supply chain, without downstream devs and deployers necessarily knowing they're in there.

#TechShowerThoughts:

Graphical interfaces are documentation with buttons.

The web is the documentation layer of the internet. Hyperlinking makes it documentation with buttons. So the web is also the native graphical interface of the net.

Webmail made email the first social layer of the web.

The fediverse adds another social layer to the web. As does the matrix network.

#TechShowerThoughts: As a citizen journalist, I want mobile micro-posting apps that don't publish posts to my public feed. But do allow me to take rough notes for future posts, including media attachments, etc, and push them as drafts to the server hosting my account. So I can edit them using a device with a proper keyboard and a decent size screen, and publish them from there.

#TechShowerThoughts: is there any local-first, Free Code software way of doing privacy-respecting data analysis, to show a person how often they're using different apps, for example?

There are many rich possibilities. I'm imagining being able to drill down into each app, or types of use. For example, which podcasts do I listen to the most, across any and all podcast players? Or, have I spent more time reading posts on FediLab, or more time typing them?
