Saddening me time and again is seeing individualism and fragmentation in .

between projects that's so often low-hanging fruit, yet never happens. More anticipation of needs, helping each other, be stronger together. Yet it hardly shapes up to the extent that it could.

We seem to lack time to become sustainable, let alone 'win' from . No time to seek collab as we prod on alone.

There are exceptions of course, and better collab tools are becoming available.

Why is it so hard in #Ubuntu and with #Gnome to show thumbnails of the screenshots I made, so I know which image to select without painstakingly opening them one by one from separate file window?

There's many images in my screenshot dir, all having thumbnails, except those created in the last 5 days. Why no thumbnails here? Why?

@protonprivacy there's some functionality I'd like to have in #ProtonMail.

I created a filter that based on a CC mail address put a Label on every match, favorited the mail and put it in a separate folder.

Great. Except that there were 1600 mails using that CC that were filtered which shouldn't have been matched. I made a mistake.

And now there's NO way to correct, except for manually opening each and every mail to unfavorite and remove the label, then place it in the folders they originated

Hi @matt 👋

Yesterday in chat I named the project, a real adorable 😍 effort that's still lacking on the side, i.e. could do with some on board.

Today I found out that Makepad is apparently part of a appdev effort, called . Another project here is .. also in for @accesskit support.. maybe. 🤔

Robius looks like a very loose conglomeration of independent projects. Maybe AccessKit is even a fit to it?

In talk about the speaker Iván Alejandro Ávalos Díaz is warning us about our future in 2050 where we no longer have to choose our payment systems, pay with cash, or pay at all if we were behaving 'naughty'.

@Taler @NGI_Taler

Screenshot from the talk showing fictitious screenshot in 2050 showing that unfortunately PainPal has frozen your bank account due to 'suspicious activity'. Reasons are that the article are deemed to be against corporate interest to show you, you use encrypted equipment, and you might create competing financial systems.

Time to move off has finally come. So many to choose from, though. Makes my head spin 😵

I need one with:

  1. Great support (maybe get that webcam working finally)

  2. Smooth & slick / (I'm less of a terminal guy)

  3. Focus on , security-first approach (but not the ones that are made for James Bond)

What do you suggest?

Can us humble peasants move to a furtile system when rabidly feeds from the bleak industrial farmlands of ?

In the huge Fields of the Majority where us wilfully oppressed forced laborers daily sow Seeds of Doubt for our masters. We see pellets hit the hardened soil, and pray in vain that something healthy will sprout this time. While we eat the bile that's served.

In our dogmatic way of life can we discern patches of and to grow Humble Deeds?

Hi @liaizon

I see you don't have a Social Coding movement account. I just posted a thought on moving delightful-funding under the Fediverse Futures org on codeberg, and into maintainership of our team.

involves the devious practice of passing people 💩 turd sandwiches wrapped in glossy paper, and have the recipient be happy and surprised when opening them.

Because only outward packaging is all that matters, the superficial layer. Hypercapitalism aggressively teaches to look no further. To not see deeper value and meaning. For its practioners, which we all are to an extent, superficiality is thus the "Return on Lack of Investment" we get in return.

We may value more.

Witnessing another occurrrence of the anti-pattern this morning inspired me to write some thoughts about this social behavior that is so common on our that is based on mechanics.

Thank you @danhon for your well-designed and inspiring site!

The social issue you address is intriguing. The cards can be very useful tools, depending how they're used. Or should I say "wielded"? As they can be hefty hammers that may come with blowback that's dentrimental to the intended effect: improvement of online (local?) culture.

Your site already holds the solution, but it is the apps that should support them.

For backdrop, reason of toot:

I see a lot of talk about "privilege" as if in disgust of those having "spare time" to help others. And I get it. Privilege is stacked in layers. From the low state of lying in a ditch dying, up and up, right to Mars where billionaires live.

Was I privileged when I quit job, started doing community work? Hell yes! Frugal lifestyle saw me some savings in the bank, most now gone.

From then on I was also sacrificing. Burning privilege at the altar of the Commons to shed my sins of individualism.

OMG! Some startup launched, and they offer over a million stock images in the . Well, "photography".. you be the judge.
