Totally! Send me a dm and we'll set it up!

It's already somewhat obvious but this article makes it even *more* apparent that the goal of DOGE is to cripple the public sector's ability to lead on *any* front. To create complete dependence on the private sector.

The new version is so good with the social features, and with a single button your blog basically becomes its own bluesky profile! I've been advocating for everyone I know who publishes on Substack to switch to it in the near future.

Whut. Srsly? This is like finding out that most other people don't put the toilet seat down or washing their hands. So embarrassing for them. And ugh.

Some questions coming to mind. How do programming languages fit into your model? Is there a distinction between creative platforms and the platforms they're created on that blurs these lines? Also, how do you see Wikipedia? Is that a relevant example, cross examples, counter-example?

But yeah. Down with Google's imperialist capitalist maps! Boooooooo.

I have literally been thinking about this for the past month. Tied to the question of what if we rethought calendars from scratch using activitypub rather than be beholden to the limitations of iCal, and what if that calendar was part of a browser suite and what else belongs in that suite? Maps.

A colorful illustration of stickers for the Signal app featuring Kagi's mascot, a cartoon dog, engaged in various activities. In one, he is wearing headphones and enjoying music, another features Kagibara, a plan on a capybara, holding a rose while dressed in a green tie while holding a rose with his mouth, and another is Doggo next to a computer with a baseball on the screen. A steaming coffee cup is also depicted, along with musical notes and hearts, all set against a black background. The text "Humanize the web" is prominently displayed.

Do you use @signal.org? We do too! You can grab our sticker pack here (and yes, Kagibara is in there too) 👇

What's the best fediverse app for reading long form content like Ghost now offers? #fediverse

How Wikipedia is fighting AI slop content Wikipedians are wading through the muck.

#Wikipedia is one of the most important and underrated digital platforms around - every other one should take notes on this. www.theverge.com/report/75…

This is so cyberpunk. Literally.

this is making my high, lil nerdy heart smile.

idk shit about tech, but this explanation helps illustrate it for me. it reminds me of archiving, keeping a body of documentation together, just digital.

thanks for making it make sense.

you've gotta be fucking kidding me

The Movement is the Medium Right-wing media sets the terms of US politics. Drawing on earlier reading, here’s a draft playbook for how we can organize distributed progressive media networks.

New post up! Teaser: "Right-wing media sets the terms of US politics. Drawing on earlier reading here’s a draft playbook for how we can organize distributed progressive media networks."

Thanks to @werd.io for inspiring some of the inquiries informing a number of my recent posts. Check out his blog!

Yeah. Buy them out, get out of the worker's ways, hire a facilitator to distribute ceo functions. AI could have a place in that redistribution of power.

All the Quarians including Tali died in my playthrough! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I was shocked, and having lost family members irl to self-unaliving........ it was rough.

Not nearly as bad as losing Chloe Price though. That game grew my heart and then excised that growth like a discontinued brain implant with drm

Great! Thanks! Just filed a few issues!

I just got the idea for an AI CEO..... that enables anti-capitalists to passively acquire companies and turn them into profitable worker owned cooperatives and then spit them out. It'd be like an anti-capitalist incubator/holding company/conglomerate something or other. I don't know. Just riffing.

This is your regular reminder that another, better world is possible.

Dumping Google’s enshittified search for Kagi Enough is enough: I’ve jettisoned Google in favor of a search engine that doesn’t treat me like a product.

Lee Hutchinson @arstechnica.com switched from Google search to @kagi.com and like me he loves it. Come for the lack of enshittified clutter, stay for the quality-of-life features like prioritizing or demoting specific sites in your results.

@snarfed.org Heya! Whats the best way/place to share feature ideas and ask for bridgy support?

Yesssss. This is what keeps me fighting.
