Just another FOSS nerd. Via the liberal arts and social sciences departments.
Long time administrative assistant , studying up to system administrator.
I mostly share posts about web literacy, user privacy and security, and informational integrity.
Sometimes I offer to help local artists and community organizations match with FOSS solutions or orient to the independent internet.
For questions, Include "Black trans lives matter" in first contact.
Clinically tired speeds. Pay it forward.

Search engines suck and my yacy is up on blocks.
Speak up. Get indexed. Risk encountering contributors.
Like. It has to be a thing. I know you're not out there making it a #friendica #addon or something.
Changed two characters to deactivate a link on a tiny project website.
What I get for checking stats casually is realizing the floss information and education pages are getting steady rivulette of visitors on top of what is a noticeably more robust indexing ping.
When I have some more time to focus on the keyboard, we'll get those 0-tier resource lists packed.
It will matter for the little while that it will matter, like things do.
For real though, I've spent the morning smoothing the old FLOSS Talk outline, and flushing out a couple of the 'handout' pages with links.
Desktops and Distros and Let's Outfit a Browser ready for newbs near you soon...
(all the data is in there but you'll be wanting all that aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa href'd)
I don't know. Might re-shoot my entire FLOSS presentation today. Might take a nap.
I think if I set up the camera and run the presentation twice, the second one will probably be a keeper --
But anything will be more approachable than the Live and Tailored Edition --
So customized, you almost had to be there.
I suppose I need an edition that's JUST the clean outline instead of a group topic squirrel nest. <3
Something for people who haven't had time to DIY research. Just to jump-start.
#Flatpacks are great until export time.
I'm just going to have to get good and start installing #betterbird from tar
Fortunately the 'birds personal information programs have super robust copypaste features for events, so completely redoing two events calendars was kind of NBD (One was only one kind of event, so paste over dates... Nearly non-task, were that a thing.)
It's just that unBettered #mozilla software takes a nitcomb to de-spysetting...
I've been thanked in the face a couple times, but the quiet background web traffic (slightly above search indexing) that means a few people are finding the guides and references useful is meaningful too.
I was the quiet reader in the aughts. Someone had to upload it for me to read it.
