@karolat i think instead of reparations, there should be a general fund that gives a hand up for people who have been unfairly harmed by US actions in the past. blacks, first nations, the japanese who were interred in WW2, guantanamo detainees, etc. -

We have written an open letter to the world. We urge the world to stand with us and push pressure on the Chinese Government during G20 meeting at Osaka.
This is not just a China domestic political issue, but the war between the free world and the China dictator.

whatever happens on July 4th with Gab, it doesn't matter, because they are not here to do what we're here to do.
Gab are trying to revise history. they are trying to say that they are the ones who are coming here to build a truly free and open Social Web.
but they're not. they are charlatans. they will be a footnote in the history of this movement, because unlike them, we've actually spent the past several years building this. -

and I think that's what makes us different from other libre social web platforms. we're building this thing, together. it's a shared adventure.
we don't have a BDFL that says "i really don't think we should do this."
we don't have a CTO that writes fan fiction about hunting down and "fucking up" ethnic minorities.
we try to raise money for projects that share our goals, processes and values.
instead, we work together to determine our own future. and if you ever believe we have quit playing straight with you, you'll be able to pack your bags and fork. no skin off our backs! -

and so, this is why our position has historically been that Pleroma users are expected to participate in it's development. participation does not necessarily mean writing code: helping out in the IRC channel, writing documentation, reviewing and copy-editing other people's contributions to make them better, all of these tasks also count as participation.
we can teach you, but you also teach us. that's how this works. -

we’ve always said that Pleroma is a long-term play. but we’ve never really elaborated on why this is, I think.
the end game for us is to teach you (yes, all of you) how to build a resilient and safe federated Social Web. we don’t have all the answers, but we have a basic roadmap for getting from here to that point.
for us, ending Big Tech’s control of the Social Web is only the beginning.
the real goal is to ensure we never return to this situation.

@marie_joseph *but* if you want to learn how to write code, in the functional programming paradigm, working on real apps that you directly benefit from, Pleroma is a pretty good place to do this. -

you're probably wondering what clubs intended to teach people how to farm vegetables and raise livestock have to do with Pleroma or the fediverse.
it's actually quite simple: both of these things have to do with promoting self-sufficiency and self-determination through learning useful skills.
in our case, our goals are:
- to produce tools which enable self-agency of users' own personal social web experiences
- to participate in the design and implementation of related technology for the above purpose
- and most importantly, to train an entirely new generation of free software developers who are equipped to tackle the social web
- and ideally, to help the people we train find employment working in the field of rebuilding the libre social web -

"4-H clubs but for fediverse development" is probably a good basic explanation of what we're attempting to do with Pleroma -

@Olivia @feld @jeff @shmibs
like, frankly, i don't think there's much support for R&D in general at the FSF anymore. it is just easier to keep doing the BadVista campaign and endorse non-FSF projects for *their* R&D. so there's literally no value in joining GNU for us.
i especially don't think there is any support for the Social Web at the FSF. it's just not their lane. the gnu.io initiative was basically a complete flop. -

@jeff @Olivia @feld @shmibs
i mean, nothing personal against the FSF, but as we saw with GNU Social, they don't understand the challenges involved in building software and platforms for the Social Web.
we have had to build the necessary infrastructure and support ourselves. that's why Pleroma is independent and stands alone as an organization. -

@jeff @Olivia @feld @shmibs
because that would require putting the FSF in charge of our project.
which.
hahahahahahaha fuck no. -

@shmibs @Olivia @feld
i like this design but would suggest replacing "open source / social networking platform" with "libre federated social networking platform" as it better describes the product and our values -

@yaaps
the draft is not yet complete.
OCAP in Litepub is going to be part of Litepub core.
the good news is that Litepub having a sustainable future is important to Pleroma, so we are working out how to ensure that Litepub sticks around for the long term (verses SocialCG which has stalled out because, amongst other things, SOLID) -

@dansup Pleroma does not federate with Funkwhale either. Funkwhale does not share posts like we know them, but collections.
