I only recently learned about (thank you ) and I have to say, what a breath of fresh air.

They are super reasonably priced, and I got it integrated into all my email applications effortlessly ( ).
Oh, AND THEY HAVE A CALENDAR!!

I've used Protonmail for a while, but I think I'm a Posteo man now. It 'just works' and I couldn't be happier.

I need to work on writing shorter, more rambling pieces. It'll keep me writing as well as build some momentum for longer, more heavily edited pieces.

The Lightning and Liquid Networks are complementary layer-2 solutions that allow Bitcoin to be used for a greater range of applications, and by a greater number of people.

You Need To Withdraw Your Bitcoin.

"Owning bitcoin but failing to hold it yourself is like buying a helmet but refusing to wear it when you ride. It’s not there to protect you when you need it most."

Over the better part of a year, through much pain, effort, and determination, I've got almost everyone I text regularly to use .

But now that I want to use @delta , I fear I've used the last bit of patience my people have and, well, there's no way they're gonna switch again.

Guess I need to make more friends and spread the word elsewhere 😅

What are the CLI/TUI applications that spark joy for you?

For me a nicely customized tmux, tut fediverse client (so I can talk to you lovely people), amfora (for gemini), profanity (xmpp), newsboat and tui_launcher (because who doesn't want touchscreen buttons in their terminal).

I am working on my presentation to the EU. I've spent a lot of time this weekend thinking about how I want to frame things.

I have a new title, which I think is appropriate: "Decentralized Networked Communities as Essential Infrastructure".

Thanks for all the Gempub feedback and help so far (especially @jk and @bortzmeyer), Gempub 1.0.0 is almost ready I think: oppen.digital/memex/gempub/ I have a little checking to do around the language and charset optional metadata (included mainly so implementations can supply language hints to screen readers), if anyone has any additional recommendations get them to me in the next couple of days and we'll make this 1.0.0 spec final. #gemini #gempub

EFF opposes digital proof of COVID vaccination as a condition of going about our daily lives. They’re not “vaccine passports” to speed our way back to normal. They’re “vaccine bouncers” that will scrutinize us at doorways and unfairly turn many of us away. eff.org/deeplinks/2021/04/no-d
