Mastodawn

Dear Fedi friends,

Good morning from #FOSDEM!

Yesterday was pure magic: I loved every single presentation in the Social Web devroom, with devs and Fediverse champions sharing their inspiring work.

I didn’t post anything because I was so absorbed in all the talks (plus @liaizon and @Sascha did a fantastic job chronicling the event).

I can’t stop thinking about one of @benpate’s closing slides:

“Every single thing you do to improve the Fediverse is a win for humanity”

YES! 🙌

We need to be careful with this Fandom-ization of the fediverse. Fandom creates blind followers and makes critical thinkers potential enemies of the groupthink.

Mastodon is a giant dangerous experiment that does NOT protect user data and has no e2e encryption!

This is NOT a win for humanity, but creating the next big brother network masked as "cool b/c federated".

We need to build privacy aware networks now!
