    Design thinking is the opposite of inclusive design?

    “They turn the everyday ability to solve a problem into a rarefied practice, limited only to those who self-consciously follow a specialized methodology. In fact, problem-solving is always messy and most solutions are shaped by political agendas and resource constraints. The solutions that win out are not necessarily the best—they are generally those that are favored by the powerful or at least by the majority. Both rational experimentation and design thinking provide cover for this political calculus. They make a process that is deeply informed by social and economic structures seem merely technical or aesthetic.”

      from Fast Company
      NYU professor Natasha Iskander argues that design thinking only serves to uphold the status quo.

    It is definitely not an easy challenge. Capitalism has set things up to coerce us into submission. I personally want to find a balance between plain survival, finding temporary hacks around the fringes, and helping build long term alternatives.

    I don't think the two are incompatible though. Looks at WordPress or Moodle for example, rather than having a proprietary centralized service with which you might make a bit of income by offering premium features (and all development lies on your shoulders), you can have an ecosystem:

    - your hosted service, with both free and premium offerings
    - contributors making improvements or adding features to core codebase
    - you can offer paid custom development / customization
    - others can offer paid custom development / customization and hosted services
    - people can self-host their own

    Of course all of this is made all the more worthwhile of you use AGPL (so all improvements are contributed back) and why not ActivityPub

    I'm liking Changemap (started using it for MoodleNet). Would <3 even more if you make it FOSS.

    Clarification for step 6, you may need to include the full path like `/usr/local/bin/boost` rather than just `boost` in the cronjob.

    Testing a temporary workaround to there being no nomadic identity on the fediverse: auto-boosting all the toots from my main/current account to my old ones.

    Using this script: https://gitlab.com/chaica/boost

    1. Make sure you have python3 and pip3
    2. Install with `pip3 install boost`
    3. Run `register_boost_app` to generate authentication keys for your old account.
    4. Create the `boost.ini` config file based on the example, putting your main/current account as `users_to_boost`, and commenting out `only_if_hashtags`, `match` and `favorite`
    5. Test by running `boost -c boost.ini`
    6. Create a cronjob that runs every X minutes with `cd /path/to/config/folder && boost -c boost.ini`

    @mike_hales

    Doesn't that page says that they set up the modules for you? And even if not included in the service, they offer per-hour support: https://www.webarchitects.coop/support

    Customer service / tech support can indeed be very costly, not only in time/money, but emotionally!

    In my experience while there's some people I am very happy to freely gift my assistance to, most other cases I find very draining to deal with (no matter if they're paying or not)... Maybe I'm just not well suited for this kind of work, but I get the impression that society has taught most of us to be entitled and demanding (and often rude) towards service providers, which makes sense as a reaction to capitalist/exploitative companies (though shouldn't excuse mistreating their workers) but in the case of technology seems to encourage the infantilisation of "users", and in the case of indie or co-op services can be very discouraging. </rant>
