:funkwhale: Good morning #Funkwhale #podcast helpers!

We have two polls up to help us decide on priorities for development. One is for the creator side, and one is for the listener side. Feel free to fill out either or both!

subscribers group poll: https://governance.funkwhale.audio/d/v4MiWwjA/subscribers-test-group-podcast-channel-developmen

creators group poll: https://governance.funkwhale.audio/d/psEaAYN1/creators-test-group-podcast-channel-development/1

Our next meeting is Thursday, December 12 at 17:00 UTC in our Matrix channel (https://matrix.to/#/#funkwhale-podcasts:matrix.org) but you are welcome to join in and discuss things any time.

:betty:

if you think devs making up stories about personal relationships with women in FOSS to undermine and remove them from communities isn't something that needs to be addressed than I don't know what to tell you

what's the fucking point of any of this when these assholes get carte blanche to piss around doing what they want and harming who they want

I have a chat log between KANIINI, DANSUP, and DASHEQUALS (shown in the log as AlexaPlayDespaci)

Before we unpack this, I want on record that I don't know kaniini, I've never been their friend, they have never known me. EVER. This is some really scary stalker shit and I have no idea what this person is doing claiming they were my "friend". Maybe it's to make the "borderline" claim stick?

just remember that blocking Gab is the bare minimum of decency and it's going to take a whole lot more than that if you want anyone in marginalized communities to have anything to do with you

the FOSSfucks are just going to get credit and money for regurgitating shit that they've been taught for free by marginalized people so they can dodge their responsibility in not ever paying/employing the marginalized people

not deplatforming nazis is deplatforming everyone else

reminder that suspending an instance does not block your public posts from showing up on the suspended instance

"neutrality" is water on a grease fire, ya doinks

How are Purism and Gab different exactly? Can someone explain the Ethics with a Capital E behind blocking Gab but not Purism or any other server sharing fascist propaganda? I'm really confused about this extremely low and arbitrary bar people are setting.

😇

I need to pass the collection plate around this month! Thank you for your 💰 and :boost_ok: 🙇♀️

reminder to do your daily crime

is the reason we have "You can tell cishet dudes and white people to fuck off all day long." in our CoC. It was in direct response to multiple of their users. 😚

So I still have $541.97 due on my power bill after paying $300 in April and it's air conditioning before 10AM weather already again because WELCOME TO HELL/LOS ANGELES 🌞 🔥 and any help is appreciated. Being poor is bad, I do not recommend.

My memoir, Back In The Woods, is now a thing you can buy and read. You can pay as little as $2 since it only covers things before I turned 18 years old and thus it isn't terribly long.

This book was made entirely by the Fediverse:

@Laurelai You mean in the UI? Because if so I AM WINNING

gargel has been working with Purism for over a year, pretty please don't fall for his :pika_surpise:

can someone tell Todd that white dudes passing each other money for their own vanity projects isn't contributing to FOSS it's circlejerking
