What’s up today? (Part 1)

Yeee-haw – as they probably didn’t say in Washington, Tel Aviv and Tasmania today

Democracy, its a bastard, eh?

If this sticks, it’s a big precedent and would certainly encourage take-down requests for MANY other ‘sharing’ projects on git-hub … I suppose once Safe Net is live, this would include it too. @happybeing – we need your Safe-git ASAP!!!

Good stuff! But I think the following can be confusing for people who don’t know the mastodon software:

“I was pleasantly surprised by the level of support and offers to help I received in mastodon.”

It’s a bit like saying “I received help in HTML”, isn’t it?

For more than three years, I download 90% of videos (mainly long format) of the stuff I consume on Youtube (Videoder is my favorite). I found out it simply works for me:

  1. no adds at all
  2. easily downloadable as mp3 than listenable through some advanced audiobook software
  3. I also hoard the stuff worth listening to - if dark ages come, there I am with all the jewels able to reupload.

Back to your point - yes, we need Safe Network ASAP!

Capitalism meets co-operation between humans
Anarchists contribute nothing - you can thank me later.

videoder is no use for folk using a grown-up OS.

Where is the source?

This is how your slavish following of capitalism rewards you.

The Safenetwork Git Portal Discussion topic has had 300 external visitors in less than a week. I’ve never shared a link and had that many visits so fast.

Conservatives :roll_eyes:

The Online Harms Bill will be laid before Parliament soon. This legislation, part of the Digital Charter’s vision of making the UK “the safest place in the world to be online”, will impose a legally binding obligation on service providers to prevent bad things from happening on the internet.

Well that worked better than expected.

I got github to free up the username ‘happybeing’ so I could have it (it had been dormant six years) and here I am: happybeing (Mark Hughes (happybeing/theWebalyst)) · GitHub

How? I contacted support via the link at the bottom of the github.com page and asked! A few hours later I got an email saying it’s done, go for it.

Now to continue building a #p2p #gitportal to replace #github :smile_cat:

I am not sure. This sounds like a case for centralization. On safe network you couldn’t get a dormant name.
