#Fediverse instance idea: an instance specifically for organizations/projects, requiring additional verification that a given account actually belongs to a particular org/project.

From the perspective of other fedi users this would mean:

- reasonable assurance that @project@that.instance actually belongs to the org/project in question

- way to find other org/projects (just check the user catalogue of that.instance)

- way to block or ignore the whole instance if one wants to avoid org/project accounts.

How it started / How it’s going

I just noticed "foreach" on npm is controlled by a single maintainer.

I also noticed they let their personal email domain expire, so I bought it before someone else did.

I now control "foreach" on NPM, and the 36826 projects that depend on it.

Peace is the heart of our Union 🕊️

Today, when Russia's aggression against Ukraine breaches international law, we stand united in supporting our Ukrainian friends.

Peace has no alternative.

Just saw a CC No Derivatives licensed artwork fly through my timeline. I have opinions on -ND:
https://rys.io/en/101.html

Short version:
ND doesn't stop bad things (say, appropriation) from being done, while stopping good things (say, translation) from being done.

On a broader level it makes promoting and building libre-culture together harder.

ShareAlike is as effective at stopping some bad things (say, corporations using stuff in ads) from happening, while explicitly allowing the good.

People fleeing the war in Ukraine need our immediate support.

We have paid €3.5 billion to help EU countries welcoming refugees so they can offer food, accommodation, healthcare, education, jobs and more to those in need.
