@hikerus Ich finde die Bezeichnung spielt schon eine Rolle, da es ein Konzept beschreibt. Microblogging ist eben nicht blogging. Trotzdem gebe ich dir Recht das es eine Diskussion oft erschwert und nerven kann. 500 Zeichen sind genug um einen Gedanken zu formulieren und raus zu tooten, ergibt sich daraus aber eine Diskussion sind 500 Zeichen schnell zu knapp...
RT @larissa_hinz@twitter.com Im vergangenen Steuerjahr habe ich einen Betrag X gezahlt. Zum Steuerbescheid hier in Australien gehört auch eine Auflistung, wofür der Staat mein Geld ausgegeben hat. #Danke#BitteNachmachenDeutschland —> Ein Ausschnitt:
@AtBios Even if it doesn't affect you as a owner of a repository, the question is whether you want to accept that people in some countries are not allowed to use your software and contribute to it. For me that's a no-go. That's why I'm looking for alternatives. Debian's Gitlab instance is open for non-Debian developers, others might be as well. Additionally there are many smaller platforms like notabug.org
"NOTE to users in Crimea, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria: GitLab.com may not be accessible after the migration to #Google" - Really #Gitlab, you are moving to a platform which will cut off access for people in all this countries? https://about.gitlab.com/2018/07/19/gcp-move-update/
@macgirvin I don't manage to follow your shitposter.club account Form mastodon.social, seems they doing something different. So far I also failed to follow your hubzilla account from Mastodon. Should this work in general?
Recently I read often that #copyleft is so bad, that nobody want to use it. I think this depends on the definition of use. People who are looking for some free beer to build their own proprietary stuff might feel sad because they can't (ab)use copyleft software. End users couldn't care less. People who want to get engaged typically like copyleft because it creates a level playing field, nobody have to fear that a competitor will take their investment and run away. #FreeSoftware#OpenSource
It is really exciting to see all this projects based on #ActivityPub. Great to see the raise of all this free, federated and open solutions. I have the feeling that we might be at a turning point where we can finally build the momentum to regain control over the internet. https://mastodon.at/@switchingsocial/100464510004807543
Looking for some first hand experience. Does a 2-in-1 laptop like the Lenovo Miix 320 with GNU/Linux provide a decent tablet experience or is it to much of a trade-off? #notebook#convertible#tablet

Why Free Software need free tools? Because we shouldn't be hypocrats. We, as #FreeSoftware developers, have to listen to our own arguments when we say that the openes of our software is the reason to chose our software in order to avoid vendor lock-in and for security and privacy reasons. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_nK6nP_RCY
@bg I hear this argument also from time to time but consider it really shortsighted. For me it sounds like: "you don't need privacy if you have nothing to hide and do nothing wrong", "we don't need laws because we all know how to behave", "we don't need copyleft because we all share our software anyway and always",...
@ebel Most conferences in Germany have a code of conduct and I think this is the same in most other countries. I would say that a CoC is pretty standard for every notable (tech) event these days. Everyone who doesn't have one yet should really consider to catch up.
Strange, I can visit the @GetTogetherComm webpage with the build-in browser of Mastalab but if I try to access it with Fennec (Firefox) from F-Droid I just see a white page.
