Damn, big publishers are really trying to crack down on the right to science and culture. It kind of pisses me off because I have been aware of its existence since last week. Only "kind of" as the website hasn't been shut down... yet.
RDF/CBOR (https://openengiadina.codeberg.page/rdf-cbor/): Yet another RDF serialization.
But it has some new tricks:
- Optimized for small pieces of content (e.g. ActivityStreams objects)
- Allows content-addressing
It's designed for decentralized systems, passing around small pieces of RDF.

It's been a long wait, but we're happy to announce the release of #YunoHost 11.0 on #Debian Bullseye
⬆️ We're also providing an (hopefully one-click) migration from Yunohost 4.4 to 11.0. And yes, we're jumping from 4 to 11 to match Debian versions! 😜
👉 Version 11.0 is mostly focused on technical adaptation, but also contains a few security, UX, i18n improvements. Cool features are already in the pipelines for 11.1 and 11.2! 😋
More info in our release note: https://forum.yunohost.org/t/yunohost-11-0-bullseye-release-sortie-de-yunohost-11-0-bullseye/20590
Today, we start the #yunocamp a camp dedicated to #yunohost and the #internetcube.

First-ever Gitea pull request from a remote instance!!! 🎉🥳
https://git.exozy.me/Ta180m/Hello-world/pulls/3
I've been waiting for this moment for months now!
The code hasn't been pushed to https://gitea.com/Ta180m/gitea yet since it's incredibly messy, but I'll clean it up tomorrow and also submit a draft pull request to upstream Gitea.
(Technical implementation information: https://gitea.com/Ta180m/gitea/issues/7)

Guide to Masto & Fedi for the newly arrived.
A good guide to Masto/Fedi for the people newly arrived.
https://github.com/joyeusenoelle/GuideToMastodon
There're many other types of site on Fedi, for instance there're Pixelfed (https://fedidb.org/software/pixelfed) which is like Instagram.
There's writefreely (https://writefreely.org/instances) for blogging and Wordpress also federates.
You can follow them all from your mastodon account too, no need for multiple accounts though there is little stopping you creating as many as you like!
Ursula K. Le Guin on "technology"
"Technology is the active human interface with the material world.
But the word is consistently misused to mean only the enormously complex and specialised technologies of the past few decades, supported by massive exploitation both of natural and human resources.
This is not an acceptable use of the word. "Technology" and "hi tech" are not synonymous, and a technology that isn't "hi," isn't necessarily "low" in any meaningful sense.
We have been so desensitized by a hundred and fifty years of ceaselessly expanding technical prowess that we think nothing less complex and showy than a computer or a jet bomber deserves to be called "technology " at all. As if linen were the same thing as flax — as if paper, ink, wheels, knives, clocks, chairs, aspirin pills, were natural objects, born with us like our teeth and fingers -- as if steel saucepans with copper bottoms and fleece vests spun from recycled glass grew on trees, and we just picked them when they were ripe..."
