Happy #PrideMonth everyone!  

This is your regularly scheduled reminder that folklore is a living thing, and communities can create their own traditions. Including the queer community. Tell the stories you want to tell, and pass them on to the next generations!

everyone is spying on you from your phone to car. Trillions of miles of data: Your car is spying on you, and it's only just the beginning https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20260513-your-car-is-spying-on-you-its-about-to-get-worse

Had a seizure yesterday while checking my TL, and haven't been able to do anything all day due to how exhausting tonic clonic seizures are.

It'd be really nice if you could be careful with it, especially if we're mutuals. Not only for me, but for all seizure prone folks around.

Thanks if you care! Sending love and strength, if you want any.

Most Google alternatives require technical knowledge most people don't have.
Self-hosting. VPN configuration. Steep learning curves.
The privacy tools exist.
They're just not accessible to people without technical backgrounds.
That means privacy is effectively only available to people who can already code.
Everyone else stays in the ecosystem because leaving is too hard.
That's the gap worth closing.

You still deserve privacy, even if you:

  • don't use Linux
  • use big social media sites
