I see a lot of trending posts and people I follow post about selfhosting and how difficult it is, and why we need communities instead. So I wanted to share to all the non-selfhosters (and anyone really who'd like to join such a community) to checkout private.coffee (https://private.coffee/) Lovely bunch with lots of community hosted foss services. #selfhosting #community #services #foss

@oranki@mastodon.world Itellänikin kävi mielessä joskus tämä ja päädyin löytämään työkalun smallwebin tutkimiseen https://codeberg.org/susam/wander ja myöhemmin löysin tällaisen sivuston jonkun blogin kautta: https://personalsit.es/

@rysiek@mstdn.social This year I tested out how easy is it to exercise your right to be forgotten with RyanAir and it was one of the worst companies to deal with. In case it's interesting I'll link my thread about it: https://mastodon.online/@dlsl/116512661113196158

RE: https://social.ahlroos.me/@yle_bot/116469856646272924 @yle_bot I'm so relieved. This reverse of decision was mainly thanks to all the activism of privacy experts, enthusiasts, IT professionals, worried citizens, etc. The ministry heard enough noise about it and decided to reverse the decision which originally was made based on financial benefit (savings). In this particular matter, the savings would have compromised the integrity of our voting system. #aws #amazon #elections #finland #privacy #digitalsovereignty

I really like the "mute" functionality of Mastodon to curate my hashtag feed. Following hashtags, especially very general ones, usually fills my feed entirely with super active posters that are totally okay (I don't want to dictate what other's post on a hashtag) but often those posters post content I'm not interested in. Blocking is too harsh in most cases in this situation so I am really grateful for the mute button. #mastodon

Because of my last boost (of https://palantirwatch.org/) reminder that Finnish authorities have been and still use Palantir. With a different name to deceive us from the fact. (Finnish National Broadcasting Company article in Finnish: https://yle.fi/a/74-20221793) I used to have trust in Finnish authorities. Now I have almost none.

@parasetamoli Välillä tuntuu siltä, että jos ei olisi syötetty propagandaa syntymästä asti miten suomessa on ihanaa ja kaikki on täydellisesti, vaan kerrottaisiin asiat niin kuin ne ovat jotta asioita voitaisiin parantaa, niin ehkä tulevaisuuteen usko olisi hieman korkeammalla. Itselle on ainakin toitotettu miten vahvat työntekijäsuojat meillä on suomessa. Joo ehkä paperilla, mutta moni firma kiertää näitä esim. pitämällä jatkuvat YT neuvottelut päällä ja jostain repäisevät jonkun syyn.

Sat next to someone in a train who was talking to his partner on his phone. He had one of those "smart glasses" and that's how I found out these have speakers built into them.

I heard their entire conversation. I wasn't even trying to listen but these glasses can't really output sound in a way that only you, the wearer, would hear it.

I find the tech bit awkward. I don't really understand the trend behind these glasses.

Oh nice, Forgejo has repository migration tool that covers most git forges! Time to migrate my projects from GitLab, which I escaped to few years back from GitHub.

@jwildeboer@social.wildeboer.net I just want to add to the positive voices here because I feel like it is needed: I don't comment often but I just wanted to let you know your account and posts are my favourite on the fediverse. I'm sorry you have to deal with so many such accusations and negative comments.

I'm having a bit of a "LLM burnout".

Started using internal one at work only recently. Had been avoiding the use of LLMs for coding for many reasons, but then I started feeling like I'm being left behind in my field.

I read level-headed takes and instructions of how to use "Coding Agents" and refused anything but open-source/-weight models.

Had success because I can do the same myself, but it's too much. Too much code to read, check, and understand in a short amount of time.

You know that website you have which you are not sure if anyone is checking out and reading? You've got a gold nugget and I'm just passing by, admiring it, and checking out what you've made with appreciation that you put time into this and shared it with the world.

I am sick of web search and the useless LLM generated content/websites that could have been 50 paragraphs shorter and are just so optimized for the web crawlers it appears at the top of every search result.

Small web rules.

I know matrix not always the nicest alternative to chatting, but if you haven't tried, you should! Let me suggest a server (and an amazing association you should check out): private.coffee (https://private.coffee/) #foss

@Cass_m@socialbc.ca yup! I also pretty much only have the loudspeaker on my phone on during calls if I'm somewhere private :) I mean people also talk to each other in real life of course, but I think you are then more aware that others will hear you. On the phone you don't necessarily expect people to hear the full conversations of both people.

@thaodan I do struggle with explaining decentralization to non-techy people though. It can be off-putting to others in my experience. I realized that just pointing to a server's registration form without getting too deep into it works the best.

@thaodan this would fix feature parity problems in clients, like room upgrades. In the rooms I'm in we always wait for quite long before we upgrade so clients can catch up. I'm not familiar with IRC so I guess I now know what my next rabbit hole is going to be 😄
