I'm super grateful for the wonderful help of Fediverse people in translating my video "introducing the Fediverse" (20 languages!) and - recently - some of my writing.

My love letter to the Fediverse - making the case for its adoption by public institutions - has been translated into French, Italian and Polish!

I've updated the article with links:

Thank you @hachem for the French translation, @macfranc for the Italian one and dziękuję @oaj for the Polish one 💖

I’m not trans. As far as I know, my kids aren’t at the moment. Nobody in my family is. None of my good friends are. I don’t prescribe medication for gender affirming care. I don’t specifically treat folks for gender dysphoria. So why do I give a fuck?

You don’t punch down. There’s no transgender machine producing trans judiciary and trans politicians and trans PACs to come for my cisgender. There are trans folks being discriminated against, outed, beaten, jailed, and killed. I hate bullies.

The new MacBook Neo is the most repairable MacBook we’ve seen in 14 years. Screwed-in battery tray, modular ports, sensible layout, and day-one repair manuals. It’s not perfect, but it’s a real step forward for MacBook repair. Read the full breakdown at the link below.

When is the unofficial plan actually the official one?

This looks a lot like Israel + Palestine + Lebanon + Syria + Jordan + bits of Egypt.

People like US Ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, seem to be at least partly on board with it

Media must stop normalizing the far right

Every uncritical mention of far-right rhetoric is an editorial decision with political consequences.
