Very interesting advice from a #Debian developer about #GitHub and #GitLab https://veronneau.org/lets-migrate-away-from-github.html
If you don't want to use Gitlab.com, here are two alternative instances for #FreeSoftware projects:
The Debian Gitlab instance is available for every FOSS project and not only for Debian-related ones. As long as the project respects the Debian Free Software Guidelines, you can use the instance
Riseup maintains a Gitlab instance for radical projects named 0xacab.

went to a MIR-themed pub tonight. Yes, the soviet (then russian) space station. Good beer and space stuff. <3
my game, Marshmallow in Fruit Land, turns one month old today~!
it sold 47 copies in its first month, which think is pretty good for a release this size (aka: very small >w<)
thanks so much for the support so far~!

just a reminder that our kitty.town admin does lots is great work for not only the kitty.town community
but for the fediverse as a whole. as an expert of harassment and tactics of nazi/‘alt right’ folks online, ginny works pretty hard to try to keep her instance safe. she offers her voice often during meta discussions and is active in her local community as well
if you’d like to support her work & ability to live, please donate to her patreon or other donation options

Are there any logo artists here who'd be willing to work with me on making a logo for a FOSS project? I'm willing to pay and you'll also get praise, admiration and credit!
The EU is about to update #Article13 to force sites to use YouTube-style content filters on all uploads.
This is a terrible idea:

I think it's good people are talking about the differences in platforms and all that, but the blind side I see over and over again from white people no matter how they align politically is that they assume their experience is the baseline. And it isn't.
If you are white, you simply do not have the same experiences as non-white people online. If you're a dude, you are not a target like women are.
A common failing is that white people tend to assume interactions are uniform.
This is false.
Fun fact: In Mad Max, Fury Road, when Immortan Joe's War Boys launch themselves into battle and spray their teeth with "chrome", it's *actually* Wilton's edible Colour Mist spray glitter. For the record, it smells like cheap vodka. If all goes well, it'll make my chocolates all shiny and chrome.
