Imagine sharing a link to your fediverse account to someone not on the fediverse, hoping they follow you.

Now imagine instead that the link you share takes them to a beautiful yet simple landing page that carefully guides them to the ideal platform, geographically closest, and helps them through the onboarding process, recommends the best desktop/mobile client and then follows you from their new account.

Stop dreaming. I'm building this. Wanna help?

EU-US Data Transfers: Time to prepare for more trouble to come

As instability in the US legal system becomes undeniable and the US shows open signs of hostility towards the EU, it is time to reconsider where our data is flowing

I’ve travelled to the US more than a hundred times for work, lived there for five years, & was a Green Card holder.

I always found it to be a fascinating & often beautiful country, & one that can achieve astonishing things.

And despite being a mess of contradictions, including many aspects that I personally disagree with, it always felt self-confident enough to allow discussion & debate about those issues.

No more, it seems, so I doubt I’ll be going there again.
