Vivian (they/them)

Well, it’s a neopronoun, so while it’s popular enough for most people to understand what it means, in my experience “iel” sadly gets a lot of pushback (“oh but we don’t do that in French” etc.) which means it’s rarely used in contexts other than to refer to non-binary people who have expressed a preference for “iel”.

I use an app called Moshidon, it’s a fork of (a fork of) the official app, it’s quite nice

Indeed why dating?

I completely switched to Mastodon and here, I’d rather not use platforms that are locked down by corporations and will inevitably enshittify without leaving me a simple way to migrate

Yeah, you subscribe to hashtags to start, find people you agree with/find interesting, follow them, and then as they boost stuff you’ll find more and more people to follow.

Really mods, banning someone for doxing a Nazi? Even though you’re on .world I’d have expected better, I understand that you guys have rules but like…

but what if this comment radicalizes men!?! I think you probably should add at least 10x more “not all men” disclaimers than actual text just to make sure not to push them into advocating against basic human rights /s

It does work though?

For example Duralex, a famous French glass tableware/kitchenware manufacturer, started transitioning to a worker cooperative in July of this year. This is a company that has like 25 million euros in revenue per year (2023), so I don’t think we can consider it “small”.

This was approved by the Commercial Court of Orléans fyi and I don’t think they’d have done that if it “can’t work in the real world”.

They’re not necessarily the same, there’s two major differences between them physiologicaly:

1. Asexual people date others unless they are also aromantic (well aromantic people also can date but it’s less common)
2. Some asexual people can and do have sex

Well that sucks, I somehow missed that, hopefully the fact that the women participating in the American version of 4B will likely be more left-leaning helps keeping the movement away from that hate

I love that I managed to guess quite a few of these

Well I’d say most of them are federated together, or at least those with a good amount of users. In practice you don’t really get islands other than I guess troll instances that everyone has blocked.

And AFAIK as long as an instance isn’t blocked by yours (and vice versa to be useful), you can follow a person on that unfederated instance and it should just work and get federated.

Wait is something like that actually in Project 2025?

The way I understand it is that they can relicense it and then publish it if they want, but the GPL would still fully apply to the previous versions.

The first question you cited seems to refer to any different organisation/individual making changes to the source code. And the second seems to refer to revoking the GPL for an already released version, which they would of course not be allowed to do.

This would make sense as ownership of the copyright would supersede a license.
