Wow it's the first time I see your art and it's seriously the most creative medium I've seen in years! I scrolled through your profile and I love what you're doing, can't wait to see more!

Also, if I understand correctly, the color comes from alterations of the light reflection, so it changes according to where you are when you look at it right? Kind of like iridescence?

I personally use Forgejo.

It has kanban boards, tasks, wiki and obviously git repos where you can store documents, not sure how convenient it is for this though

Starting by not calling people that don't know/care about privacy "normies", and educating them I guess.

Also I'd say start with the "easier" ones, for instance anti-capitalist people are more open to find ways to avoid surveillance capitalism. If enough of these people care and educate their respective circles, eventually all people will care.

I checked both YouTube's "Trending" and my Lemmy feed today and I love how one is the perfect opposite of the other.

On one side, an algorithm wants me to ~~be amazed~~ watch ads looking at AMAZING videos talking about those wolves while on the other side a human enlights me with a good article that tempers the hype.

Thank you btw human

In my local community, we have a WhatsApp group for mutual help and services / goods exchange, the rule is no money, so it's mostly populated by leftists more or less open to understand the problematics of internet privacy (for context). There are a bit more than 350 persons.

Today, someone sent a message telling everybody that he's leaving Meta products for good, thus this group. A few other persons complained about meta, then I suggested that we could all leave WhatsApp and go on Signal and I briefly explained the network effect by saying that if no one uses signal because nobody is on it, then no one will ever use it if nobody takes the first step.

And this argument worked because an admin just created a signal group! More than 50 persons already switched!

Obviously the WhatsApp group will not be abandoned right away, but it has been decided that both groups will be used for now, then we'll see at the end of the year which group we abandon.

I really see hope in that kind of events, because if I managed to make more than 50 people switch, a portion of them will do the same for their other groups and family / friends.

I plan on hosting little conferences with this group on the libre culture and the attention economics, so hopefully I'll convince all of them that it's the right thing to do!
