Can you please stop? You're putting pressure on me to finally try peertube hosting myself 😉

@_elena ciao Elena :) what are the benefits of self-hosting rather than going with an existing server?

@_elena > What is the small action you are taking today that would annoy the tech barons?

Yesterday I started a new repo to rewrite my personal site from scratch. The current version was whipped together in like 3 days in React (_terrible_ for a static site but I just needed something).

My pipe dream is to use part of my site to catalog all the ways this administration is hurting us.

I’m not an artist. I can’t make music. I don’t write. But I can research, and I can code. That’s my rebellion.

@_elena @ele@elenarossini.com @elena @ele@photos.elenarossini.com Your own #Pixelfed server? Very cool

@_elena @ele@elenarossini.com @elena @ele@photos.elenarossini.com
Right on!

all good ideas, to which i would add: sign up for a class at your community college, start a book group, join a hiking club, volunteer for a social service org. the more time you spend interacting with other humans without the mediating influence of a screen, the harder you are to manipulate.

@_elena @ele@elenarossini.com @elena @ele@photos.elenarossini.com I agree with you. The rebellion will be federated!!!!!!!!!

Grazie Elena. Not sure what this all means but it's inspiring and give me some areas to research further as I diligently try to move off all mainstream corporate platforms.
