Remember #Patreon set up new on-by-default sharing of your account information with every other Patreon user (and maybe the world)? Remember people posting how to turn it off, because they were using confusing language/dark patterns to try to #trick you into oversharing?
I got the "welcome to the new Patreon" today, and ... they've turned the "Community Profile" setting back on after I deliberately turned it off.
We are looking for volunteers to help us in different areas. A lot of interesting and challenging work 💪 awaits on the open-source, community-built road to the best, fastest 🚀, easy-to-use 👴👵🧒, and privacy-focused maps.
If we get enough money, we can significantly speed up the development by hiring a full-time team and rewarding the most active contributors. If we get more users, we get more donations. Donate and spread the word 💸!
I have a #BananaPiZeroM2 and whilst this thing can on paper run circles around the #PiZeroW, one can't even force it's HDMI to output something else but 720p60...
T2.social is now Pebble, with a new design and a new feature - Ideas. Looks like it is using AI to provide you with new post ideas based on your previous activity on the site.
This isn't a federated platform, but it's not twitter, so there's that.
why look for alternates? it's closed source, it's the target of many and frequent scams, Servers can get spammed nd nuked on a regular basis and the Founder Jason Citrion's previous project was the subject of a class action lawsuit over it's invasive Privacy problems and Computer fraud (among other things)
If you're looking for a free, open-source alternative to the Font Awesome icon library you should check the MIT-licensed Phosphor icon library. Clean designs, over 7k icons 🤯

Salut les pouetteureuses ! Question alternatives libres, sans pub, sans traqueur aux initié-es.
Est-ce que vous auriez des articles, tutos SIMPLES (pour des noobs pas du tout sensibilisé-es aux questions de données, ayant 0 connaissance en code et dont l'usage du web est classico-classique) pour faire découvrir l'existence, l'intérêt et la façon d'utiliser les alternatives comme nitter, invidious etc permettant de contourner le flicage des plateformes, svp ?
Pixelfed is a photo sharing network on the Fediverse, intended as an alternative to Instagram. You can follow Pixelfed accounts from Mastodon and vice versa. There's more info about it at:
You want ethical alternatives? Let’s build a campus where folks can work on them without worrying about how to exist day-to-day (or fund their early-stage development like VC does for surveillance capitalism).
The extent of what public funding is doing today is “Oh, looks like you’ve got some alternative functional, let’s pay you to add Feature X to it.”
End of last year we launched our own #Mastodon server Vivaldi Social, becoming the first #browser company to step into the decentralized world of the #fediverse.
Our goal was to offer better #alternatives for people to communicate in an algorithm-free environment with no surveillance capitalism, devoid of tracking or #dataprofiling.
@leiphf I really like Resolve and am actually quite happy with it's features. However, I am on a quest to replace many, if not all, #closedsource apps with #opensource#alternatives. 🙂 In case of Resolve I was originally thinking of Olive.
