Here’s an idea: let’s call people “people” on the fediverse instead of “users” whenever we can.
Compare:
“There are 42 users on this instance.”
vs
“There are 42 people on this instance.”
Which acknowledges our humanity more?
Language matters. We don’t need to perpetuate mainstream technology’s othering/colonial framing of “us” – designers/developers/other “clever folks” – and “them” – the users (usually one step removed from “dumb user” and usually the ones who get used).
Wusstest du, dass die Zahl ausländischer Tatverdächtiger von Gewaltverbrechen 2023 zurückgegangen ist? Dass das Verhältnis der Straftaten mit ausländischen Tatverdächtigen im Vergleich zur ausländischen Wohnbevölkerung gesunken ist? Die PKS wird massiv medial missbraucht, um Rassismus zu schüren. Dabei wird auf so vielen Ebenen verzerrt. Hier ein deep dive mit allem, was du wissen musst, um AfD, BILD & Co. zu durchschauen. https://www.volksverpetzer.de/analyse/pks-bild-afd-kriminalitaet-beluegen/?utm_source=mstdn

I saw a post here (that I can't find) that kinda changed my life.
It said the best first step to changing the world into a better place is to just stop making fun of people *or yourself*. Ever. For anything. Including in your own thoughts that you may never speak aloud.
I try very hard to do this! it's such a stabler and nicer-feeling foundation to my thoughts and my life. It sheds a mental weight/burden I couldn't see before.
Such a great distilled bit of advice for a big concept!

Ich denke nicht, wenn die sich ihres tödlichen Gefahrenpotenzials bewusst wären und sich tatsächlich auf das Autofahren und nicht auf Termine, schlechten Sex, Radio, Navi, Klimaanlage, Handy, ... konzentrieren würden, würden sie ziemlich sicher für alle sicherer mit dem Auto fahren.

As seen in the Anarchist Pedagogigies Collective
Before I fully understood my gender identity, my wife casually mentioned more than once, "If you ever decide to transition, I'll support you." At the time, I thought she was joking, so I didn't dwell on it much. However, when I finally realized and came out to her, revealing my transition to womanhood, she wasn't surprised. She confessed she had sensed it all along, which was why she assured me of her support beforehand. What followed was her own revelation: she came out as a lesbian.
Fast forward several months, and she recently shared with me a heartwarming picture. She explained that she had found this picture some time ago and saved it because it resonated with her due to its cuteness. Despite forgetting about it for a while, she stumbled upon it again today and felt it perfectly encapsulated us and our journey together. It's fascinating and wonderful how life unfolds, bringing such meaningful moments to light.
I just wanted to share that picture with you, hoping that you find it as cute and significant as I did.
(edited to clarify that the amount of time when the image was found was not many years ago, instead saying "some time ago")

Best thing is:
To opt-out of having my repos in there (my whole github account has been delete for years),I have to create a New Github account so I can open a ticket.

aktuell wird ja viel über die #bezahlkarte für geflüchtete gesprochen die ja vor allem mit dem zweck eingeführt werden soll rücküberweisungen ins ausland zu verhindern
worüber imho kaum gesprochen wird sind die rücküberweisungen selbst – wie viel geld das ist und wofür es ausgegeben wird
hab mich mal etwas schlau gemacht und zb rausgefunden dass man unter den begriffen "remittance" oder "rücküberweisung" fündig wird

Mich hat es nicht losgelassen, wieso die Gesundheitsämter in Rheinland-Pfalz auf ihrer mindestens zweifelhaften Software bestehen. Ich hab deshalb (gefühlt) hunderttausend Stunden hunderttausend Leute gefragt und gebohrt und gelesen und ungefragt angerufen - und bin jetzt ein bisschen stolz, was da alles zusammenkam: Interessenskonflikte, Täuschung des LfDI, mangelnde Sensibilität in Behörden für #ITSecurity, mangelndes Interesse etc
