I am planning to set up a YouTube channel with tutorials, tips, and tricks for teachers, administrators, and people interested in education and pedagogy going digital. What is the biggest win for professional development on YouTube in your opinion? And what should be avoided?
Embracing Diversity: Supporting Trans and Gender-Diverse Children
In a rapidly evolving world that increasingly recognizes and embraces the diversity of human experiences, it is crucial for parents to deeply understand and actively support transgender, nonbinary, and gender-diverse children.
Hoping to make the list with my first patch which I've just confirmed to be fully operational!
Was looking forward to a smoother all-#FOSS paper writing workflow with @zotero and @libreoffice, am now also looking forward to getting some cool stickers 😎

There’s a united front to support the Mother’s Day Walk for Peace💜
The Walk is organized by the Louis D. Brown Peace Institute, a Center of Healing, Teaching and Learning for families and communities impacted by murder, trauma, grief and loss.
For six days we had a group of @kde Plasma devs at our office, gathered to plan, discuss, hack and improve what will become Plasma 6 in the near future. We provided them with everything necessary, the idea in mind to contribute to Plasma's development also in quite practical way. Myself, I had the chance to do the overall organization from a first contact back in 2020 until waving goodbye on Wednesday.
From a community and user perspective, I wanna thank my employer @tuxedocomputers for their efforts and commitment on any areas in that regard. It is something the overall F/LOSS community profits from! 💙 🐧
I'm continually amazed by the #Fedora community, but admittedly having trouble processing a certain mistrust for #RedHat right now in light of recent layoffs and comments from #IBM's CEO about replacing people with AI. I'm legit angry about the harm done to Fedora and the #opensource world by some clearly out of touch suits and grieved by the human cost of those decisions on people who most certainly did not deserve it.
“As a working class woman from London, England, I have noticed striking parallels between the types of communities that #postgrowth envisages and those of the working class.” @freemoneyday manager @ER_Roberts_ ➡️
I love the fact that the CEO of #Portainer jumped into my thread on #Slack to give me a hand on getting it up and running properly the other day on #DockerSwarm. 🙌🏼💛
I've been hearing about this idea that your home is your first place, work or school is your second place, and that there are amazing benefits to having a third place that is community space for socializing and does not emphasize commerce. This could be a church, a barber shop, a library, a rec center, a park, etc.
I do not have a third place, and apparently I am not alone. Since the US has been and continues to be increasingly car-dependent, especially in the suburbs, and community spaces are disappearing and giving way to commercial properties, we don't have many third places left here.
The Fediverse is probably the closest thing many of us here have to a third place, but research has shown that it's just not the same. Online communities are amazing, but they can't replace the mental benefits one gets from an IRL third place.
So what's up guys? Do you have a third place? If so, what is it? How has it improved your life or where do you think you might be without it? I'm really curious to hear about your experience.
