@aral This is what I've been trying to emphasise to friends who remain in walled-off corporate sites. It's also got to the point where Google's purchase of YouTube (which some of us have memory of) developed a monopoly on video, and now when I visit websites still using that to embed videos, I can't play any of them because I have to be signed in. (And I can't always be bothered to use front-ends etc and hey why should I)

But for now here's a fresh #introduction! I'm a Britain-based #solarpunk passionate about helping to make the world a better place through the liberatory power of multimedia technology, particularly DIY media such as non-centralised social networks and good old fashioned #zines.

By "night," I continue to work on something called The SilenceBreaker: https://silencebreaker.mediaactivist.com
