@strypey Thanks I was not aware of ValueFlows. Will check it out! Ideally I'd combine the value/semantic layer with Federated Bookkeeping to have an 'ERP-like' ecosystem that reduces the need and importance of (opaque) organizational boundaries.

@strypey I've never been to Aotearoa ... but I am passionate about creating neutral (digital) infrastructure to support self-organization at scale (as a counter to extractive market practices with increasing barriers to entry). Currently looking at labor market, informal community trade and community task/process coordination.

@Gina Government should simply stop creating iOS and Android apps and only create PWAs. Additionally, make a list of devices/OS combinations that do not undermine Dutch sovereignty. And, like @bert_hubert deploy, deploy, deploy. And cancel the slm-mga aka slm-maga

I deactivated Google Play on my phone. The electricity company app was the first to be bricked. 'You must update.'

I wrote to them: ’I don’t have Google or Apple. Where else can I update the app?’ Nowhere else, they replied.

I wrote (politely) back: ’I can’t use your app any more then. It’s an odd requirement to make of your customers. A Norlys customer can only access all Norlys services if they are also a customer of one of two specific private for-profit US companies.’

I just spent the last 24 hours building... a free tool to create your very own handwriting font quickly within the browser (no logins, all local processing):

Having tested it extensively on my own manuscript, I can definitely say that it works. ;) Download the OTF and/or TTF when done!

There’s one very simple thing I learned from Chomsky and that will change your worldview forever. It is really simple.

Each time you read something in a media, simply add the following sentence before everything: "Someone want me to believe that…"

It completely modified my perception. It calmed my anger against lies. It allowed me to read something with no judgement other than "Someone want me to believe that".

Next, you will start questioning who is that "someone". But one step at a time…

First new #Disintermedia blog post for 2026!

https://disintermedia.net.nz/in-defence-of-servers/

Well ... kind of new. This is the first of 3 posts I wrote for the Bridge Seat co-op blog, which I'm reposting so I can stop sharing links to SS.

This one is about why geeks need to stop questing for the Holy Grail of pure P2P networks, and embrace a vision of servers as community-scale infrastructure, run by and for the people using them.

A vision of server admin of the people, for the people, by the people.
