I'm tired of this idea that if you run Linux you should be able to use the terminal and you must be a developer or hacker. My dad happily uses Linux and he barely knows how to turn on a computer. Some non-techy people just like privacy and freedom.

Daniel Gultsch auf Twitter: "Please update to #Conversations 2.1.4 ASAP. Available on both Google Play and F-Droid. This fixes our first critical security issue. More details will follow after the majority of people have upgraded. Conversations Legacy and Conversations prior to 2.0 are not affected."

Also we have to get rid of any messenger that requires your mobile phone number as your unique identifier, even much-lauded #Signal. It locks you inside the conventional, easy-to-track phone infrastructure. Try #Conversations instead, on a WiFi-only device. It uses the decentralized XMPP and works like a charm.

Tschaka tschaka tschaka tschaka, toot toooooooooot! 🚂🚃🚃🚃💨

Hallo, hier bin ich! 👋 Da https://witches.town zum Ende des Monats schließt, versuch' ich hier mein Glück. 🤔

Ich komme aus Berlin, interessiere mich für Videospielentwicklung und Comics und ich mag Katzen und Hörspiele. Ich unterhalte mich gerne zwanglos und gewaltfrei und in meinem Profil steht noch etwas mehr zu mir. 🍃

Es würde mich freuen, hier wieder netten Menschlein zu begegnen, insbesondere Enbys! 🏳️🌈💕 Gerne auch offline. 😺

Deutsche Bundesbehörden zahlen zwischen 43,5 Millionen Euro (2015) und knapp 74 Millionen Euro (2017) für Softwarelizenzen allein an Microsoft. Dazu kommen sicher noch ein paar weitere proprietäre Softwareprodukte. Was man mit dem Geld alles erreichen könnte, wenn man es stattdessen in Freie Software Angebote von lokalen Unternehmen investieren würde. https://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Bundesbehoerden-zahlen-eine-Viertelmilliarde-Euro-Lizenzgebuehren-an-Microsoft-4024334.html

The "Simple Mobile Tools" #Android apps are really nice. I use many of them and really recommend to have a look at them. https://simplemobiletools.github.io/ #FreeYourAndroid

Most importantly, stop putting institutional events on Facebook, stop using it at universities, stop making participation in Facebook mandatory through your institutional, organization, and activist roles. You can be online, and social, and connected without supporting Facebook.

I seem to have zero followers. #newmediasitesarehard

now I´m here but don´t know what to do.🤔

Thou shalt not buy Nestle products.

Nestle lawyers argued in court that water is NOT basic human right and that it should be privatized and sold and it would be wrong not to do so. https://twitter.com/Nestle/status/976742046714261505

If a sysupgrade on linux would take 3+ hours with a SSD and 300mbit downstream nobody would be using it. On windows people seem to have accepted that computers are slow.
