Okay #fediverse, hit me with your static-site-comments solutions!

I've been using Disqus on one site and direction to tweet me on another, and neither option sits well with me anymore.

Besides directing all my readers to #Mastodon (and why wouldn't I?!), whatcha got?

Because of where this was posted, I could not find a creator credit.

Are there any co-ops that run web hosting? My food co-op is looking at hosting more stuff in the cloud and it is important for us to support other co-ops when we do so.

Also, would there be interest in setting up a co-op web host if I could talk the food co-op into investing in something like that?

I wonder how we'd explain the concept of "cute" to aliens...

"aww, isn't he cute!"
"what?"
"over there, he's adorable!"
"human, that's an apex predator that routinely kills and eats mammals far larger than you"
"his box was too smol but he still sits!"
"fucking humans"

(Same post as before w/CW, boost this one)

My viewpoint on these things comes from a place of gentle encouragement

I want us to stop bickering with each other and put that energy into diverse approaches and contributions to improve decentralized, non-corporate social media

The neurotransmitter hit from "winning" against each other is a cheap drug

Centralized services and corporate
actors still control the conversation, and your data, and this fight is with them

"The moment that social media platforms added ways to tag or sort or search or categorize what users posted, personalized content, or indicated what was trending or popular or featured—the moment they did anything other than list users’ contributions in reverse chronological order—they moved from delivering content for the person posting it to packaging it for the person accessing it."
