This is how I plan to rebel against the tech barons and kleptocrats for the next 4 years: through activism, education and FLOSS

Person is doing worthwhile things but has way too much confidence in the fediverse. Welcome to Lemmy though, if the author makes it here.
- The author has had many articles here.
  
  I see. @_elena@mastodon.social congrats.
  
  @solrize I have accounts on Lemmy, PieFed and Mbin. Wrote about them this summer https://blog.elenarossini.com/the-future-of-social-is-here-a-show-and-tell-part-4-lemmy-piefed-mbin/ 🤗 these days I’m mostly using #Lemmy and I really really enjoy it
  
  It's great to see you here, but you should have been around for Usenet. :)
  
  @solrize someone here told me about the concept of Eternal September (I think it was @nimi) and I was so fascinated by it, I ended down a Usenet rabbit hole… which prompted me to get a Raspberry Pi 5, install Ubuntu on it and begin to learn Linux 🤗
  
  By the way, if you want to learn about free software as a political movement, you should check into the history of the GNU project.
  
  @solrize will do, thanks! 🙏
  
  This book (free downloads available) is a good start:

  @solrize thank you! 🙏
  
  Nice! But Usenet is almost dead now. 30 years ago it was like Reddit without advertising and without Spez :).
  
  I think you're doing the right thing having your own site. Lemmy has its attractions but is disappointing in some ways.
