I've put together a survey about the Small Internet (#gopher, #gemini, individual webpages, small community sites) and I would love your input. If you are a small internet user, please spend a few minutes and fill in your thoughts. I'm especially interested in the open response questions. This will help inform an upcoming conference talk I'll be giving at https://mch2022.org

Also, please boost this on fedi as much as possible and feel free to re-share on other social networks and in other communities. The more responses the better.

everyone's always complaining about how much they hate computers but I love them, I love computers

the things mostly dislike about computers come from a feeling of disempowerment. but computers can be very empowering, if we let them, if we make that a priority

@lohang //After over 11 and half years since he was first arrested in #London in December 2010, kept in arbitrary detention and then imprisoned in London’s maximum security #Belmarsh, the #British government has dispensed with all legal norms and signed an order that could well result in #Assange’s death.//

Terrible truth. 😢

That happened in Europe 😠
