We’re living in the age of attention, and sadly, the concerns of FLINTA peeps still don’t get nearly enough of it. Whatever’s on your mind, we’ve got a platform for you!

No worries, the platform is totally optional ☺️ , you can also pick a cozy workshop space or join in from home while sharing your talk or leading your workshop:

@BernieDoesIt @Catvalente there is:

  • REFUSE TO RELEASE ON #iOS UNTIL THE TERMS ARE CHANGED!

As with every #Platform, #Software makes #OperatingSystems and the #OperatingSystem makes #Hardware.

  • This worked with #WindowsPhone and #UWP: everyone refused to build #Apps for it and thus it died pretty quickly.

And if you want to say that's not an option, take a look at #AltStore which automates all the necessary work to perpetually #sideload any #App on iOS in a noob-friendly way.

Remember: "Everyone else does it" never was and never will be a valid excuse for any shit system!

  • Also you could just refuse to offer the sales on Apple's platform and add any "#Premium Features" post-launch with your own payment & licensing infrastructure. If you're big enough or small enough you may get away with it. #NotLegalAdvice

Otherwise band together with other #developers and coordinate.

And if you allow Apple to exploit you harder than #Valve, then you normalize that shit!

trump/musk/Rs’ goals and modus operandi are now clear as day. I wish that by now, the Dems had three things in place:

1) an explicit platform stating our goals and strategies during what @Daojoan brilliantly calls this era of #badfaithgovernance,

2) #leadership to keep us #motivated and #directed and

3) a multi-tiered #organization in place to make #progress on multiple fronts, allowing #leadership to communicate the successes and how they fit into the #platform.

It’s a #loop, get it?

Of course, you do realize that I want the original #SpaceJam #Website to have at least a couple of posts using the #ActivityPub protocol, preferably one by @BugsBunny@SpaceJam.com that says:

"Michael sure can play! But everyone's distracted by Lola..."

And maybe some homage to Tex Avery, if he wasn't a complete monster.

In any case, you get my point. It's not actually a #SocialPlatform, a #Service, or any kind of #platform at all. The web just got a jungle telegraph. Have at it, Hoss.

Continued thread

A #platform, is a platform, is a platform. The user don't care.

What is that, a #CSR on #serverless, an #SSR hooked up to a #VPS - or maybe you even manage your own #kubernetes. Daring, aren't we?

For some people, this is all static. But, they know what the #web is. They know that it's where the crawlers live.

When I look at this chart, I think #WebSocial has a ring to it that might project "Other" into the top 5 - maybe even top 3.

Why?
