    I agree with the dystopian part. It's not a warm and fuzzy feeling, this feeling. A feeling that's too common for my liking these days.

  • What open-source software would you like more people to know about?

  • Yes yes. It's so satisfying contributing to OSM and seeing my changes pop up in OrganicMaps knowing it might help somebody and support open mapping data. I wonder if Wikipedians feel that way.

    The Humanitarian OSM Team is cool too https://www.hotosm.org/

  • Universal UnifiedPush support so we can manage our own push notifications through something like NextPush on your Nextcloud. At that point I could completely remove Google Play Services from my phone without much trouble.

  • @pixelfed: Loops is a new platform for sharing short videos, and it's open source + federated Using #ActivityPub

  • Stretched too thin is an understatement.

    Between Pixelfed, Sup, Loops, FediDB, fediverse.info, PubKit, all that comes with developing those, his main job, and whatever else he has cooking, I don't like being so heavily dependent on the whims of one dev. I have mad respect for him and everything he has done, but this situation is definitely limiting the growth of the platforms, contributions to those platforms, and his general decision making on what to develop and how to prioritize.

    I try to be optimistic because in the end what he's doing is a net positive, but we're going to need more than one man's raw coding talent. That's why although I'm exited for Loops, I'm tempering my expectations and expecting a cap on the popularity and adoption of Loops like with Pixelfed unless something changes.

  • It will also come with an open source "For You" algorithm. I've been wishing the fediverse do this since I joined and it took literally banning TikTok for it to happen in the span of a few months by dansup for Loops, who thankfully has a favorable outlook on the use of algorithms on the fediverse.

  • Remember the NSA director back when all the Snowden stuff happened? Keith Alexander? He joined Amazon's board of directors in 2020. Not to mention Bezos is a particular fan of the DoD and was on the Pentagon's advisory board.

    Why anyone would trust Amazon is beyond me. And I don't like feeling so damn watched just for walking down a street with a bunch of Ring cameras. I can't believe it's so normalized to constantly watch your neighbors with a corps eyeballs.
