🇫🇷 President Macron is 💯 here👇🏻

Deloitte has been caught selling an AI generated report to the Australian government for the price of 440,000 dollars. Smart. An even cheaper way to make expensive BS consultant reports about how we can cut the public sector without any bad consequences at all.

twice a year the entire U.S. press becomes a marketing extension of a single billionaire-owned retailer, and nobody in any position of editorial power thinks it's weird or gross

Hey there! I'm one of the blind folks who read alt text on here. I'd like to say thank you for adding that so that I can also enjoy images of cartoon animals. A little effort from you means a world of difference for people like me #accessibility #alttext #blind

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Mastodon feature request – to make lists even more useful as prisms of the kaleidoscope, or simpler put, "flows" that you to tap into: Add the ability to include hastags in lists (flow) #mastodon #feature

RE: https://mastodon.social/@leanderlindahl/115317172427285929 Ceterum censeo Mastodontis insignibus ubique collocandis esse. (Furthermore I consider that Mastodon stickers must be put up everywhere)

"Noblesse Oblige Is Dead: Today’s Wealthy Elite Just Don’t Give a Damn" This article by Thom Hartmann, published as "Daily take" 29/10 last year, extends well beyond that particular date. Worth rereading. #inequality https://hartmannreport.com/p/noblesse-oblige-is-dead-todays-wealthy-c53

I'm beginning to get excited about #loops now ✨ 📹 (Clip created by https://mastodon.green/@gimulnautti) https://joinloops.org/

Apparently theres a new wave of people joining mastodon, and with them a new wave of self-appointed cops "welcoming" them with long lists of mostly fictitious "rules" they need to follow. This is a social media platform, with many of different ways to use it. It's fine. Mostly, just try to be […]

"We have gotten used to regarding as valor only valor in war (or the kind that’s needed for flying in outer space), the kind which jingle-jangles with medals. We have forgotten another concept of valor—civil valor. And that’s all our society needs, just that, just that, just that!" Alexander […]

Jonathan told me how there are things you have to do, even if they are dangerous. "Why is that?" I asked. "Because if you don't you're not a human being, you're nothing but a little louse," Jonathan replied. /Brothers Lionheart, Astrid Lindgren https://urlr.me/Vfzme4

We appreciate that certain politicians have recently admitted their naivete in entrusting the voices of their governments to corporate / for-profit social media. To these politicians, we say: https://joinmastodon.org/hosting

Vi har inte råd att inte veta vem Thiel är och vad han har för agenda. Vi borde kräva att statsministern redovisar exakt vad samtalet handlade så att vi kan få veta ifall svensk demokrati hotas.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@leanderlindahl/115317172427285929 Would love to see Mastodon stickers popping up everywhere. #mastodon

Why is it that the media keeps calling the Czech election result a "decisive" victory for Babiš? In a multi-party system, it is no rule that a party with 35% of the votes gets all the power.

Well known factors to stop increasing extremism and strengthen democracy 1. Strengthen and widen the middle class. 2. Limit influence of oligarch owned media

"True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made.” —FDR, 1944 (via Robert Reich on bsky.social)

Statsminister Ulf Kristersson har haft ett hemligt möte med Peter Thiel – Paypalgrundaren vars företag anklagas för krigsbrott i Gaza. När SvD begär ut dokumenten är nästan allt maskat. www.svd.se/a/935RzE/ulf...

Späte (und erneut folgenlose?) Erkenntnis “We were very naive to leave our public space to social media networks controlled by US or Chinese companies that don’t share our interests and not interested in survival of our democracies.” Präs. Macron 3.10.2025 www.youtube.com/live/MggNSjf...

Imorgon är det öppen föreläsning i Jönköping. Teaterbion på Kulturhuset klockan 18.00. Jag kommer snacka marknadsskolan och dess kapitalstarka ägare och försvarare

To all refugees form #bluesky - welcome. This is a place of oddity, peculiarity, and lovely people. It can take a little longer to find your place here, but you will, if you try. So welcome, and say hello.

@fingolas @CiaraNi Yes. Governments have to take a lead in this. At the minimum they should set up Mastodon instances and encourage local government to do likewise.

Choice is power. Choice is freedom. And I will never have anyone take that away from me. @_elena kicks off Berlin #fediday with something like a #fediverse creed. #savesocial

@buyeuropean.bsky.social one solution would be to create online petitions to show these politicians, that the people they represent are not happy with them, in parallel to holding public office, working as content creators that legitimise and drive traffic and profits to democracy hostile x-corp.

Exactly. Especially politicians (and other VIPs) who still use X as their main messaging platform, and news media that constantly refer to it ("says @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu on X" etc.). Basically they are the MAIN reason X still didn’t lose its perceived relevance and their democracy >> [1/2]

I went with Ubuntu to be main stream. Now it turns out my Ubuntu 24 is running Wayland and not x11? And lots of apps have to be rewritten? And Wayland is the future? But narrow adoption? End result I can't find a decent main stream app launcher (cmd + space)... Albert, Ulauncher... Why isn't […]

It’s insane how valuable and dominant all of America’s tech companies have become.

”I styrelsen sitter en fd moderat minister och en fd moderat skolnämndsordförande. Lobbychefen har bakgrund som presschef för Moderaterna och IES tidigare presschef var tidigare moderat ersättare i riksdagen. Det här spelar roll när man vill på verka politiker att bortse från folkviljan”

It took some considerable effort, but yesterday I successfully cancelled my prime subscription 🥂

Is there a team behind Pixelfed? Or is it @dansup alone (who is also solo coding loops)? I think its a super app, but I was discouraged yesterday when @ [email protected] announced she'd have to give it a break because of it being to hard to use.

Good morning, cup of coffee ☕? (Shamelessly borrowed from @BlumeEvolution ) What's the state of Pixelfed? I hear about performance issues, which also reflects my own experience. But since I'm not big on photos, I dismissed it as a fluke back in August when I noticed it. #fediverse #pixelfed

As reported by The Guardian: www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

Swedish 🇸🇪 PM Ulf Kristersson continues to have no opinion about whether Swedish citizens should be kidnapped in international waters: www.dn.se/varlden/sven... I don’t think we’ve ever had such a spineless government.

We just cancelled a family trip to Chicago. The kids miss their cousins, but this is intolerable 😢

We shape the world we live in. We are not powerless, yet our elected officials feign "having to" use X even though it's abundantly obvious it's a negative force. Why do they work as content creators that drive traffic and profits to x while holding public office? Don't they work for us? […]

@murena coming in and saving the day!! 🎉 After not getting an answer from #fairphone support for over a month, I reached out to #Murena to see whether they could fix my FP5. It only took them three days to respond, and they have offered to help me out ❤️

RE: https://mastodon.social/@arstechnica/115311447104448187 Will this stop anyone from using Apple products and services? I stopped after the 24 karat gold incident. Happily typing this on a #fairphone w #eos.

“.. His conclusion is very stark: not just that an economy already at stall speed will fall into recession as both the data-center and wealth effects plateau, but that they’ll reverse, just as in the dot-com bubble did ..” https://bsky.app/profile/carlquintanilla.bsky.social […]

@leanderlindahl I would also love to see the same. Facebook is the default here in Canada particularly in smaller communities. FB Groups are the norm for communication.
