My IG photog account was suspended this morning, but they wouldn't specify why. The only things "wrong" I did that I could think of was block accounts of large brands who had ads in my feed and have "Now posting to Pixelfed!" in my bio.

I was able to get it back online after appealing and doing the whole "look left, look right, look up" video selfie. They apologized in the email, but still didn't say what they thought was wrong.

Buone notizie per chi sta pensano a cambiare firefox:

LIBREWOLF SBARCA SU MASTODON!

Mentre proton abbandona mastodon, il browser privacy-first sceglie la libertà:

librewolf@chaos.social

Perché sceglierlo? Perché è:

Fork indipendente di #Firefox

Anti-tracciamento integrato con modifiche pro-privacy già implementate

Senza telemetrie o servizi proprietari

Un progetto FOSS che non segue le orme dei big tech, ma le cancella.

YouTube has been cracking down on alternative frontends.


Vanilla Invidious currently doesn’t work well,


so most hosters paused and/or gave up.


Fijxu runs a fork of Invidious,


with their own modifications implemented to circumvent the blocks,


here’s the source code if you’re interested:


git.nadeko.net/Fijxu/invidious


I’ve got big respect for Fijxu,


he’s been doing a very good job of keeping Invidious alive + fighting against the YouTube crackdown lately, basically all on his own.


If you can please consider:



Donating for their work/hosting
Hosting their fork on your own
Solving open issues with pull requests to their fork

All the above can help Fijxu,


since currently he’s mostly fighting a big tech giant all on his own.

I really liked the Hated One's new video on the UK being a surveillance dystopia, but his insistence that "selfhosting isn't a solution, you'll get hacked!" felt really dumb.

I understand the point that your average hobbyist doesn't actually have the time to properly secure everything, but there's a huge difference between running dozens of services and using mostly offline-first software.

The answer definitely is self-hosting in some form, telling people to install Signal and use Tor does nothing other than shift the burden of effort. As far as I'm concerned the ideal solution is to address the problems with self-hosting and how the software ecosystem unnecessarily introduces vulnerabilities.
Mentre #Microsoft si prepara a deprecare #Skype per maggio, potrebbe essere una buona idea provare alternative #FOSS come #Mumble, #Jitsi e bigbluebutton@fosstodon.org per chiamate/videochiamate. Specificamente per Mumble, ho il mio server a mumble://gianmarco.gg aperto 24/7! Feci anche qualche mese fa un video tutorial in italiano riguardo Mumble, link nei commenti!

As #Microsoft prepares to phase out #Skype in May, it might be a good idea to try out #FOSS alternatives such as #Mumble, #Jitsi and bigbluebutton@fosstodon.org for voice/video conferencing. Specifically for Mumble, I have my own server at mumble://gianmarco.gg open 24/7!

I recently learned that the Italian government is only allowed to buy proprietary software after it has determined that there isn't a free software option. IIUC they're also required to publish any code they write (or commission to be written) under a free license.

However, at least as far as I know Windows, Office, et al are being used everywhere in public administration, and even e.g. public transport apps are proprietary. What gives?

Reboost ♻️ plz: In light of increased uncertainty on the reliability on the US, European democracies should strengthen their strategic autonomy: this also includes autonomy from #Microsoft #Windows in the public and private sector.

https://eu-os.gitlab.io proposes to develop together a Community-led Proof-of-Concept for a free/libre replacement of Windows. Follow us on Mastodon and join the Matrix chat at https://matrix.to/#/#eu-os:kde.org to receive updates and help.

There’s this but AFAIK it’s not for public institutions. For sure dario@pan.rent, llas@defcon.social, and the fsfe@mastodon.social know more!
