Encouraging healthy habits is fundamental to an ethical alternative.

That is why we are working on a Screen Time feature that is enforced across web and apps, allowing you to set your own limits.

We can reclaim short video sharing for humanity, and make it better, together.

Stories might be our most complex feature yet (harder than Collections, Groups, Portfolios combined).

But they're everywhere - Snapchat, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, TikTok, LinkedIn. People expect them.

Love them or hate them, they're how we share moments.

@pixelfed is doing Stories ethically - no tracking, no ads, just authentic sharing.

The future is federated. ❤️

The initial promise of #crypto for easy payments seems to have gotten lost to just speculation. What are some #ethicalalternatives that people are actually likely to use? #banking

Boycotting brands that are complicit in Palestinian human rights violations is a powerful form of consumer activism, but how ethical is the product you buy instead?
