  RE: https://mastodon.social/@sturmsucht/117025930463084597 "Normal People enjoying normal Things" This blog post by @sturmsucht@mastodon.social sharing his experience with traditional #SocialMedia and the #Fediverse is pure gold. If you've been in both worlds you'll enjoy the read, and the transitioned you've made already, while agreeing violently with your head... 👌🏻😍 "Social media on big tech platforms isn't about sharing what we love and connecting with others...

  RE: https://mastodon.nu/@bettina/116993665226781257 Just going to leave this fabulous quote from @bettina@mastodon.nu here: "But bosses don't change a system that benefits them. Because they don't act as stewards, but for private gain", as a friendly reminder of what #Management & #Leadership care about in case you all forgot or get told otherwise 🤯👇🏻

  RE: https://mastodon.social/@dansup/116872403257762799 Whenever people may ask me where I usually hang out nowadays, away from traditional #SocialMedia, i.e. the #Fediverse, I'm going to point them to this fine piece of work by @dansup and entice them to dive in & join us!

  If you're using #GenAI, I'd *strongly* recommend you read this uncomfortable, poignant & on target essay 👉🏻 https://tante.cc/2026/04/21/ai-as-a-fascist-artifact/ by @tante@tldr.nettime.org, so you understand the conscious choice you're making, in case people may start calling you out on your active support of fascist digital technologies that have got a clear aim: "“AI” is a political project [...] whose purpose is the shifting of power and agency away from people and organ...

  “Not because the technology was superior, but because the people on it had no reason to perform. Without engagement metrics or brand-building incentives, Fediverse users shared expertise instead of content” Aaah, I still remember rather fondly when, 4 or 5 years ago, people on #MediaTools stated rather adamantly the #Fediverse was doomed because you couldn't rely on #Decentralised social networking tools. And yet, here we are ... More info 👉🏻 https://boingboing.net/2026/03/06/why-ma...

  "The return-to-office push reflects a deeper tension: companies urgently investing in technologies that decentralise and automate work, while simultaneously doubling down on physical presence as proof of productivity. It’s a contradiction that exposes a lack of coherent strategy for the future of work" 👈🏻 Ouchie!

  RE: https://mastodon.green/@peterdutoit/116361874604454429 Oooh, for those folks who thought #DistanceWorking was a dead end and a thing of the now long-gone past, I guess we may need to go back to the drawing board and do better than what we did with the pandemic over 6 years ago. Time for a re-start, but perhaps do things better this time around? 🤔 I am *definitely* going to continue saving and curating these news items to reference them when people tell me #RemoteWork is dead.

  How I plan to use #SovereignByDesign: A deliberate commitment to digital autonomy: our data, connections, identities, and communities governed by consent, transparency, and shared principles—not by corporate extraction or algorithmic control. Open protocols and intentional architecture make it achievable, restoring human agency to the heart of the web we inhabit. More than just a mere hashtag, it's a movement to architect a digital world that truly honours our collective dignity and po...

  After 3 months on compassionate leave, today is my 1st official workday of 2026. It's been quite the journey, but as we regain some kind of normalcy in our household (If there ever was one!), hoping to slowly, but steadily, resume my online life & therefore my daily work chores. It's going to be *totally* weird, a rebirth of sorts, I suppose, as I get to question for myself what kind of digital life I'd want from here onwards, but that's the fun of it, ri...

  Trying to answer the question "What kind of digital life I'd want from here onwards?" surely is going to be an interesting exercise, giving the current poor state of all things online. Yes, #Enshittification, I'm looking at you! I've spent the last few days playing catch-up and one thing for sure is that, so far, I know the online places I wouldn't want to return back to. From there onwards, I guess it's time to explore and figure out...

  About a month ago, I mentioned how I plan to carry on with these three initial options: - The #Fediverse (The only? true open #SocialMedia platform) - Signal (For my Messaging & Chatting needs) - (Potentially) a new blog (= Permanent digital home) For my daily photoblog, I thought I'd try #Mastodon vs. #Pixelfed. At the same time, I plan to use MT for my microblogging urges. Will I then need a separate identity or can I blend both over here without too much disruption? 🤔 Choi...

  Hummm ... It looks like only one hashtag out of six I have set up in #Mastodon seems to deliver toots straight into my Home timeline via @ivory 🤔 Not too sure whether it's working as designed or whether it's a flaw, so I guess I'll need to go through another route to get the toots via those hashtags. Oooh, look at that! There are RSS newsfeeds for MT hashtags as well! 😍👍🏻 Sorted! 🙌🏻 🙌🏻

  Following up from a previous toot RE: hashtags' RSS newsfeeds, here's an initial list I have set up in order to help me build, nurture and sustain my own following over time based on these topics of interest: - #RemoteWork - #DistanceWorking - #DistributedWork - #SovereignByDesign - #cmgr If there are any other folks interested in such themes, please do get in touch.
