As an immigrant, I'm a firm supporter of more global mobility. I want barriers to free movement, including employment, to be lowered everywhere, for everyone.
Found this lovely meta-cartoon about metadata posted up in the Informatics department at the University of Edinburgh (where we were holding our @npub1zekl...2tug meeting this week). I remember seeing this cartoon before, but I don't know the author and I can't find it anywhere on the web. Any help, fediversians?
The #Fediverse is not just posts from people who can confidently install Linux. It's full of posts on art, politics, cats, photography, activism, history, gaming, humor, cartoons, creativity and community from people who can confidently install Linux.
Of Mastodon, Threads and Bluesky, Mastodon/Fediverse is still the best for me. It's where I get better engagement, more thoughtful posts and replies, more authenticity, fewer trolls, more global reach, and better overall UX. I'm intending to be somewhat active on all three platforms, but I'm going to favor the Fediverse for the time being.
For the avoidance of doubt: nothing changes. MAGA is still a hate cult. Climate change is still real. Earth is still round. Vaccines are still effective. Trans and non-binary people are valid. Women are people. Black lives matter. Love is love. No person is illegal. Hold your ground. Double down.
