I wrote up a few options on how to preserve Flash projects here: https://rhizome.org/editorial/2020/dec/21/flash-preservation/
At the bottom of that page you have the option to donate so Rhizome can upsize its emulation infrastructure to keep bringing Flash to the web.

here's (apparently) the most well-known asl translation of jabberwocky, btw and it is AMAZING http://videocatalog.gallaudet.edu/?embed=6518 and an essay about it https://web.archive.org/web/20160922040138/http://www.formsofcouncil.org/en/inquiries/30_tacet/784_space_time_and_gesture which points out that "[a]s deaf education grew in 17th and 18th century Europe, the rational structure of the spoken and written word supplanted gestural expressions [...] such developments were not limited to sign languages, as numerous bourgeois societies developed taboos against excessive gesturing during speech"
@xuv @yannick I agree with your point of view. I have respect for the efforts of the creator of pixelfed, but would like to see a better alternative than just a copy. Or even better: brand new ways of decentralized social media build in a webpage everybody can publish on a basic server. I want to focus all my attention on my own webspace without the need to sign on yet another platform. One self-owned account to connect, share and communicate.

Everyone of @guppegroups , Hello.
Everyone of guppe, Hello. I made a pull-request to the master of Mastodon for basic response to group actors.
https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/pull/12071
This will display the Group badge and suppress group boost notifications.
Also, because the group follower is added to the delivery destination, you can deliver with Create-Note instead of Announce.
Tell us about any interesting stories about the group. Thank you!
A #mastodon exclusive! You are invited to play on a *REAL* PDP-8/e running the TSS/8 monitor (TimeSharing System 8) pictured here. There is a user contributed tutorial here:
https://wiki.livingcomputers.org/doku.php?id=tss_8
To connect, ssh tss8@tty.livingcomputers.org
If you are unable to connect that means all 6 (yes, just 6) lines are in use. Remember, this is real hardware and there is NO EMULATION happening. It is the real deal! Enjoy!
Does anyone know of any nice texts or presentations that argue for #FLOSS as a component of #sustainability or to rectify what people used to call "the digital divide"?
