I keep seeing lots of long-time #fediverse users saying 'don't favourite posts it does nothing' but actually when you favourite my posts it makes me smile and I'm sure I'm not the only one.
@eylul we briefly talked about #UBI and related things in #ubuntusummit, want to share a little talk by someone personally involved with the cause.
Maybe you even already seen it, in the case resharing does not hurt :)
Can really recommend a watch.

Now the way the Internet Archive is doing mastodon is how more organisations and celebs should be joining the fediverse!
They have a dedicated in house instance, which lets you identify official staff, and gives them control and security over their content, whilst also allowing people and instances to opt in or out of interacting with them
Kudos for doing it right @internetarchive!

i'm not gonna post actively on this instance again given how it's spinning down, but i will prolly install a single-user instance of something non-mastodon soon, what's good? seems pleroma recovered a bit from its social issues, and misskey improved its performance and gained a pair of friendly feature forks. calckey might be good idk
also i've been on cohost last few days people are nice there ( https://cohost.org/AriaSalvatrice )

This is the Fixometer. It registers community repair events such as repair cafes and restart parties and records the data from these events. The data then joins data from a network of global partners, it's published and used in campaigns and policies. #OpenData #RightToRepair https://openrepair.org/open-data/insights/

Anything in that kind of area, really.

Some suggestions/incentives on things we can do to not leave a bad mark here would be nice.
Otherwise feels we are only perpetuating the cycle of "expats ruin city by means of gentrification". We do not need to maintain the status quo, and staying here gives an uneasy feeling of contributing to it.
Don't want to be associated with the same non-conference attending people as there are here. They already look at us as if we are bothering them anyway.
I haven't seen this mentioned in #ubuntusummit so far - contributing to the local community where the event takes place.
People working on IT jobs tend to be on a privileged position, and this hotel hilton place shows an enormous amount of wealth vs the just outside of it.
We don't even have to go far, just a walk behind to the nearest metro station we can see a few homeless people.
on a self-hosted instance, anyone knows how to get content from other instances such as https://mastodon.social/tags/ubuntusummit ?
when searching/listing #ubuntusummit on mine, I dont see the stuff from other instances. is there some config or thing to enable somewhere?
And by #ubuntusummit I mean https://events.canonical.com/event/2/
Will be traveling tomorrow for it, first time in Prague, and in Czech Republic too.
No talks/presentations from me this time, was bad timing for me with so many other things going on..
Serves to get a feel for these Ubuntu (not developer) summits, if all goes well and next year we have another one hopefully I will be on presenter mode. 🎤
How come I dont see anything for #ubuntusummit ? It starts Monday already, c'mon let's toot!

Every Mastodon explanation is like "It's very simple, your account is part of a kerflunk, and each kerflunk can talk to each other as part of a bumblurt. At the moment everyone you flurgle can see your bloops but only people IN your kerflunk can quark your nerps. Kinda like email."
Hey all, for those potentially interested in DPF (or audio plugin development in general) I have created an audio plugin template at
https://github.com/DISTRHO/imgui-template-plugin
Uses cmake for build system and ImGui for the GUI, so hopefully some will be familiar to at least one of these.
Can be helpful for easy experimentation.
If you are not familiar with ImGui, can really recommend to check it out at https://github.com/ocornut/imgui
