With the development of industrial capitalism, a new and unanticipated system of injustice, it is libertarian socialism that has preserved and extended the radical humanist message of the Enlightenment and the classical liberal ideals that were perverted into an ideology to sustain the emerging social order.

@tootbrute searx already can use yacy results

but the yacy peer has to be on the same location

If you want to really de-googlify The Net, decentralized search engine should be the first step: http://yacy.net/

The sad thing is, YaCy's stuck in a spiral. It's not very usable as a everyday search because there's not enough peers and they can't index The Whole Internet, so people go away, the search has less peers, indexes less sites…

There is one use case where you add your favorite sites and get a truly personalized search, but again, one computer can't index the whole net.

Sure, sex is good, but have you tried repairing a disposable consumer trinket beyond its planned obsolescence?

a sincere heartfelt thankyou (and condolences) to the admins of all masto instances. it sounds like it's a brand new hell every day

@bob @Shamar (cont) Otherwise, they couldn’t be more different.
Open Source cares about business. Free software/freedom technology/ethical technology cares about people.

Open source is a tool for business. Free software is a tool for individuals.

@bob @Shamar That’s because Simon is squarely about Open Source. Open Source was a reactionary immune system response by the business community to Free Software (in its original form, limited to copyleft licenses). They could see the value in free as in free labour and the value of privatisation but they didn’t want the “share alike” aspects of Stallman’s licenses. The only thing that Open Source and Free Software have in common is that the source is open.

@bhaugen Capitalists centralising everything and always competing for profit rather than collaborating can never get cooperativism right. Free Software is anathema to their process, even if they benefit from it, there's a fundamental philosophical impossibility in being for capital and being for collaboration at the same time. US Liberals really need to make their minds up.

Many cooperatives could form to develop various apps that us the protocol.

And also many cooperatives could use the protocol, apps, etc, to conduct their cooperative activities.

@strypey @mayel @matslats

If you consider a platform cooperative to be a centralized and hosted system owned, operated, and governed by a cooperative, it is easy to tell what the cooperative owns.

If it's an open protocol, how does a cooperative own it?

A cooperative could form to create and maintain software that runs the protocol. SSB is starting more than one organization like that

Or cooperative could form to host sites that run the protocol, for example, social.coop. (part 1 of 2)

Are they any discussion going on about implementing #GPG for the #fediverse ? Could it be done ?

As of now, the admin can read our DMs, but maybe we could have a solution to that ?
