How do we get to more than just three web engines owned by three US companies? It's a gargantuan question, with no easy or right answer. I've put together a draft report, thinking about it through a very specific approach - please enjoy: Servo Readiness Report

Anti-fascistic software is made possible by pro-labor licensing. I've been trying to write this piece for years. Every time I get started I'm just overwhelmed with paralyzing visions of the FOSS commentariat accusing me of WrongThink. But I'm tired and we urgently need to get our shit together.

I'm a happy paying user of
@signal.org
but I'm disappointed by
@meredithmeredith.bsky.social
thread about the AWS outage. Signal chose a centralized design to be more nimble (watch to
media.ccc.de/v/36c3-11086...
), but that comes with drawbacks.
