Is #Mastodon really viable for the small to medium-sized operator?
We assert, "NO!"
We did something simple. With a Mastodon tab open we hit Ctrl+Shift+E to get the Network Tab. With an inactive thread open in Mastodon, we went to another website to read an article.
An hour passes and what we discovered shocked us. Mastodon somehow justified sending us 55MB of data. The #NetworkTab said 55MB over 1500 requests (53MB transferred).
@dsfgs resource use is an issue with the mastodon codebase, it's not a #block on using but is an issue to think about using a different #activertypub codebase
With Mastodon going down the #ngo path and wedded to feudalism as "governance" common issues for most tech projects.
Entführt und gefoltert in Syrien - Deutscher Helfer verklagt NGO
2018 wurde ein Helfer während eines humanitären Einsatzes in Syrien entführt und gefoltert. Nun verklagt er seine Hilfsorganisation - ein einzigartiger Fall, zeigen Recherchen von Report Mainz.
Om 3 uger kører jeg og 7 andre frivillige chauffører for https://www.bilertilukraine.dk/ den lange vej fra #Aarhus til #Kyiv med biler og forsyninger - altsammen doneret af private og virksomheder, som vil være med til at gøre en forskel. Det er alt fra droner og hospitalsgrej til generatorer og mobiltelefoner, og modtagerne er dybt, dybt taknemmelige.
Bidrag går direkte til indkøb af biler, reparationer og diesel. Alle arbejder frivilligt. Der står chauffører i kø, så flere bidrag betyder flere biler afsted, og mere nødhjælp til dem der har mest brug for det.
MobilePay 669994, evt. med teksten "Saustrup". Alt gør en forskel! :-)

The pay conf is in not connected to #socialhub it's a #NGO type thing from the #twittermigration crew - they came in with the pay mindset and are not going to move away from this ongoing. It's a culture shift, coming from ActivityPub #mainstreaming
I am looking for #Mastodon instance for well-known and international #NGO official account (activism, human rights, feminism, decolonialism).
threat model & holistic security aspects are already on my my desk. And do not tell me "Set-up & Launch your own server".
post scriptum: Oh yeah my fuckin brain is singing "create a coop and provide friendly host" with a Bjork tune and @how scratching Larsen effect above it 😆
The #OMN instances are based on the history of "offline" activism. #Activism is the crusty protest camp and #campaign, a #NGO office. #OMN value is that we "bridge" the two and keep this bridge in place
So protest camps have their share of "nutter" mess and the #NGO offices have the power politics mess. Let's try and get the two to compost this messy aproch to social change and challenge.
My friend Björn and I are in the early stages of creating an NGO. Our mission? To bridge the gap between people with disabilities and tech companies/start-ups. We aim to share our experiences and expertise to improve the accessibility and inclusivity of their products and services. We believe there's a significant need for guidance in this area.
We're just starting out and are eager to connect with potential allies and seek guidance on setting up such an organization. If you're interested in joining us on this journey, have any advice, or know someone who might, we'd love to hear from you. Let's work together to make tech more inclusive!
The #APconf event is lacking focus and energy from our "cats" so we will likely have a #fedifourm I talked to these guys during the last event, they are new 'native" from the #twittermigration that
bring the "normal" power politics with them.
An event that pushes liberal #NGO agendas is fine as a part of a balance.
Though we have our "native" libertarian cats so the balance will be a challenge that we need to work on #socialhub

As long as smugglers and NGO’s earning fortunes of money with trafficking of immigrants these tragedies will never stop
It’s the failure of #Europe that it doesn’t make 100% clear that it will never be tolerated to enter Europe in an illegal way
As long as this isn’t 100% clear and also in this way communicated, will this for certain people and organizations profitable human trafficking remain to still exist 🤷🏻♀️
