Social - Alice Ice

Gentle reminder, when someone is sharing some small piece of resistance they have done, DO NOT SHIT ON IT. Do not tell them it isn't enough or it's still bad because blah blah other stuff...

Everyone is tired and overwhelmed and trying to find some accessible way they can push back. Cheer that!

Celebrate the small; celebrate the imperfect.

No single action is gonna solve everything, but a whole bunch of small actions start the sea change.

Don't punch down when we all need lifting up.

If you're a trans ally 🏳️‍⚧️ , I highly recommend following @reclaimallies to build up your knowledge of common anti-trans misinformation and counters. It's a new account that doesn't have the following it deserves.

A read receipt isn’t a subpoena. A stranger’s breakdown isn’t your content. Your friends aren’t an audience. AI shouldn’t speak for you to the people you love.

Attention please! (Clears his throat).

Seeing that the Pixelfed.social server was receiving spam and scam accounts, I decided to switch server. Imagine my surprise when I discovered... I couldn't. You can't migrate a Pixelfed.social profile to another instance. Apparently, this has been the case for over a year, by other complaints I've seen.

The lead developer has said something like they're working on fixing it, but it's been like this for a while...

I asked @pixelfed for an explanation several days ago. They've posted things, but they haven't answered to me.

Meanwhile, they've disabled one of the main features of the Fediverse on the largest (and "official") server.

In other words, they're holding all their users hostage, which goes against the philosophy of the .

What's more, Pixelfed has a function to export your data. However, exporting posts always fails.

I thought, well, at least I can import the people I follow. Nope, because the only import tool they've designed is one for importing your Instagram account. Disabled on the main Pixelfed.social server, by the way.

I even started to think it was because they were one version behind the server I wanted to move to (which would be strange, since it's the main server).

Well, no, they have the same version. But you can only migrate your account INTO Pixelfed.social, not the other way, OUT of Pixelfed.social. That makes the whole thing crystal clear to me.

In short: NEVER create an account on Pixelfed.social, or you'll be held hostage. I recommend another servers (Luzeed, Fotolibre, for example). And there's also @vernissage for sharing photos.

You can all follow me again at this account: @andrewblasco@luzeed.org. Because of course, without account migration, you lose all your followers 🤷🏽‍♂️

Am Wochenende eröffnete das .
Die Bäder denen, die darin baden, ist ganz in unserem Sinne und: öffentlicher Luxus.

»Öffentlicher Luxus« entzieht all das, was wir wirklich für ein gutes Leben brauchen, der Markt- und Profitlogik und baut eine Gesellschaft auf, in der geteilt und nicht unterteilt wird.

Bei der Eröffnung war nicht nur die @rosaluxstiftung mit Bauchladen vor Ort und verschenkte eigens für den Anlass hergestelltes Wassereis und Papierfächer.

Volksbühne Berlin mit Pop-up-Freibad im Vordergrund und dem Text »Die Bäder denen, die darin baden!«. Buchcover von »Öffentlicher LUXUS« (communia & BUNDjugend, Dietz Berlin) in Schwarz und Gold.

The theme for Drink and Draw last night was "Space Creature"

A pencil drawing in a sketchbook depicting a scene in what may be a space station. There's a woman in astronaut garb floating in zero gravity. She's weilding a regular ol' floor broom (as opposed to a hypothetical futuristic space broom?), and she's angrily shooing away a raccoon. Inexplicably, the raccoon is also wearing astronaut garb, and is floating after a regular ol' garbage bin in zero gravity.

An implication here could be that these critters can get into just about anything, even off-Earth.

A man was refused a refund after Google removed his purchased copy of The Lord of the Rings trilogy from his digital library. Google claims that when you “buy” a movie digitally, you're only buying access to it for as long as they still have the rights to let you watch it.

(Picture of the Lord of the Rings cover, next to it a chat window where the buyer asks for a refund but the Google employee refuses)

Repeat after me: If buying isn't owning, Piracy isn't stealing.

@Bonfire @benjaoming

Preparing a policy is fine, but the question was about current usage.

I do follow your account, but don't see evey post. So I, too, would like to know:

Do you use AI anywhere?

Thats a simple yes/no question. I'd love a simple answer.

7 Tage noch - Entspurt!
Jetzt für sichere Straßen und faire Gerichtsverhandlungen unterzeichnen.
Ist zwar nicht ganz so komfortabel wie bei privaten Anbietern aber hat dafür auch Wirkung!
https://epetitionen.bundestag.de/petitionen/_2026/_05/_26/Petition_201482.nc.html

Wie soll diese offizielle(!) innerhalb von 8 Tagen noch knapp 20.000 Unterschriften generieren? Wo sich Viele lieber in nutzlosen Eigenlob-Angeboten vergeblich verausgaben?

Die Bubble bei dürfte zwar zahlreich genug sein, aber dafür müssten Profile mit vielen Followern hier aktiv werden.

Dass von gegen und Fußgänger nicht mehr als Bagatelle "ohne öffentliches Interesse" eingestellt, im Gegensatz zur Lappalie "Schwarzfahren", sondern strafrechtlich verfolgt wird, sollte im Sinne aller sein.

Nun, nicht der Autobesitzer - außer natürlich erst dann, wenn der eigene Kreis betroffen ist.

Also informieren, zeichnen und andere mobilisieren:

Yo, I'm heading up a brand-new community project. 👥

We write code by hand. 🤚🏽⌨️

It's a growing opt-in directory of software developers who write code by hand. When you hear someone tell you “nobody does that” you can point to this and say “well these folks do.”

If you're and care about the future of handcrafted software, please add yourself to the list! I'd love to see this grow to 100s of signatories (I know y'all are out there!) and really send a message.

https://handcraftedcode.org

A page style layout with the following:

We write code by hand.

We use Natural Intelligence to build software libraries and applications in production today. Some of them you may be using right now.

There are people who say "nobody authors code by hand any longer." We are here to say that's incorrect. Because we do it. All the time.

If you write code by hand, add your name to this list!
