I should have specified that what I oppose is that they ONLY use those platforms. Their list is Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, Youtube, and Soundcloud. Not a single federated service. Not even one of the pretend-to-be-federated services.
At least tell me you think they should get their asses off of Twitter. Using Twitter at this point seems pretty inexcusable to me.
All I'm suggesting is that a group called Party for Socialism and Liberation should not ONLY use these corporate surveillance networks. Although I like your idea of someone only using Matrix. That would be an absolute shitshow.
I wanted to contact them and saw they use twitter and facebook. Lost all interest in that org. fuck em.
do you have any posts or articles that discuss this? I've heard this referenced a few times but haven't seen examples yet. I'll continue searching but I'd appreciate you can link me to.
I assume there will be a protest there. Does anyone have details on exact location for that? I don't live in that area so I'm not really in touch with activists there.
That's what I use to keep my socks from falling down to my ankles.
For real. I've provided a matrix instance for people to test to see if it suits their needs and to stress test it to make sure it's reliable at the scale we need. So far it's been great for two of us but I'm afraid the rest are all going to join at the same time, the server won't be able to handle the number of people doing voice and video chats and then they'll hate the whole thing. Other thing they might do is join the main Matrix instance and see how slow it is. That's almost worse.
I'm sorry, you didn't ask for all this info. You said a thing and it made me want to get some stuff off my chest. I almost posted more but deleted it. Then I wrote more and deleted that. I'm just gonna stop now but I feel better now that I've typed some things at a stranger on the internet that I agree with. It's almost like a virtual hug. Hope you felt it too :D
Yeah, I've been drinking. It's Friday somewhere.
