In my new article "The rebellion will be federated – 2025 edition" I discuss the key role of the Fediverse in this political and cultural climate... and argue that digital sovereignty and the ability to self-host are now more important than ever:

Plus I had a chance to look back at my Fediverse advocacy in 2025 😊

The rebellion will be federated – 2025 edition
Looking back at a year of FOSS activism, spurred by political events.Elena Rossini
"- as with tech enshittification, labor enshittification "is a political choice, not an economic inevitability." Labor enshittification is the foreseeable outcome of specific policies undertaken in living memory by named individuals. As with tech enshittification, we are under no obligation to preserve those enshittificatory policies. We can replace them with better ones." - @pluralistic
No time to make something new, but needed to post something happy after the excellent results yesterday.
This from a few years back is a good representation of me browsing around the news posts from US friends yesterday & my resulting reaction.
Good job everyone. Five stars. Would democracy again.

BREAKING: Kristi Noem just lied to reporters, claiming "No American citizens have been arrested or detained," despite daily video evidence to the contrary showing dozens of U.S. citizens being arrested.

Amazon Employees for Climate Justice has published an open letter denouncing #Amazon’s use of AI, and demanding specific commitments:
1. No AI with dirty energy
2. No AI without employee voices
3. No AI for violence, surveillance, or mass deportation
(all of which Amazon is currently not doing)
Even if you are not an Amazon employee, you can add your name to supporting the open letter.

Without ‘hype trains’ and #corruption #billionaires wouldn’t and couldn’t exist.
#Resist intelligently.
We'd *all* better make haste, 👉the #Fascist takeover plan, #Project2025, is already 47% completed:👈
"Polls show that Project 2025 didn’t resonate. Voters thought it wasn’t real...after just nine months, it’s already 47% complete.
Trump’s shutdown is not some random political tantrum. It’s a shortcut. The plan is simple: gut the federal workforce, fire career experts, + replace them with loyalists... "
Good work, Nicole, that saves me work to compile that list.
As with Europe and #Russia's war in #Ukraine, we should stop funding the #Fascists:
No oil or (liquid) gas from Russia--no purchases from companies where these funders of the #MAGA/ #TrumpCoup hold a share of 20% or more*.
The list will be hard to compile, but even harder to boycott by all of us.
We need to at least try to
#DefundTheBillionaires and eventually #AbolishBillionaires.

For you activist folk that still use Google services, get your shit off google and do it now. Don't store your files there and move your email to @Tutanota
If you can't make that effort you're not to be trusted. Look at the last item on the list in the linked article. Given the current fascist admin, it's clear your files are not safe, secure or private if stored on Google. Likely other US services too.

When Nazi Germany invaded Denmark in 1940, 17-year-old Arne Sejr secretly distributed a short pamphlet called "Ten Commandments for Danes." It inspired countless acts of defiance and led thousands of ordinary people to save 99% of their Jewish friends and neighbors by helping them to safety in Sweden.
Given the modern parallels to the past and inspired by Arne Sejr, a group of artists and organizers created "Ten Commandments of Defiance."
