At the end of it I feel like we had to run much faster just to stay in the same place.
Much like the rest of the space, funding for @openprivacy and @cwtch took a hit, and we have to continue to squeeze ever more out of the amazing support we do get.
When I look at where Cwtch is now compared to a few years ago I couldn't be prouder.
So much more to do, so many better worlds to build.
Ultimately the fight for privacy, security, and thus freedom of expression and association will be won't be won in a courtroom or a legislature.
It will be won my people making a choice that those values are worth actively protecting.
Every time someone localizes cwtch for a new language, or submits an anonymous bug report, or simply reaches out over ephemeral wires to say hi, I remember why we continue to do this work.
Wherever you are, whatever race you are running, I hope the next revolution around the massive inferno that provides life to our tiny rock is kind to you.
@sarahjamielewis Thanks for your efforts. It's on my list to explore in 2024. Long ago realised that the most significant developments on any day ordinarily happened out of the limelight and were only appreciated in retrospect. Hoping we get to a tipping point sooner rather than later.
