Does anyone here have information about the status of Matrix-WhatsApp bridging/interoperability? (Maybe @matrix?) 🤔

Ads coming to WhatsApp is making me much more frustrated than I already was. I haven’t been updating the app since the introduction of Meta AI, but now WhatsApp is demanding that I update within 15 days or I won’t be able to use the app anymore.

So, the time has come: I have two weeks to backup and quit WhatsApp for good.

Since I’m here: could I also ask for your advice for local-only, not cloud, software that can backup ALL my #WhatsApp chats and store them locally in a browsable format/database? I found out about WhatsApp-Chat-Chat-Exporter but I’d like to learn more before testing it out.

Boosts welcome, let’s help each other and resist the broligarchy together! ✨

Damn, we wouldn’t have all this trouble if only the #DMA was actually enforced 🤬

…“Succession” creator Jesse Armstrong…new movie, “#Mountainhead,” …He wrote the script, about grandiose, nihilistic tech #oligarchs holed up in a mountain mansion in Utah, in Jan & Feb, as a very similar set of oligarchs was coalescing behind #Trump’s inauguration. Then he shot the film, his first, over 5 wks this spring. It premieres on Sat on #HBO.

“If you want to know how Banks views capitalist tech billionaires, you don’t have to hunt very hard. In the Culture series, a capitalist tech billionaire is the literal devil, only he couldn’t be bothered to build hell himself.”

—Constance Grady on how the broligarchy misreads Iain M. Banks’s Culture novels

Vox · Why does Elon Musk love this socialist sci-fi series?By Constance Grady

Team meeting this morning to do some filming for #EleFediVideos & to discuss the next steps. An issue that came up beautifully illustrates the power of the #Fediverse & decentralized social media.

The 1st video introducing the Fediverse to people not familiar with it will discuss Silicon Valley's #Broligarchy.

#YouTube could take down the video if offended right wing people complain about it.

But if I upload the video to #PeerTube... who are you reporting the video to? To ME! I'm the admin 🤗

My mother's half-brother was in the battle at Anzio and was in a cavalry unit that marched up through Italy and into Russia, where he saw scenes of mind-boggling carnage that deeply scarred him psychologically.

Not one of these family members came back to the US praising Nazis. Quite the contrary: they had stories to tell, when they were willing to talk.

I remember and am shaped by those stories. And I'll keep remembering.

His brother received medals for bravery due to his actions on flight missions into the Low Countries to liberate them. Their brother-in-law had a brother who died a hero's death in France at the hands of Nazis.

My mother's brother was in the first Army unit who arrived on the scene of the Gardelegen massacre soon after it took place. He captured an SS officer, risking his life to do that.

I'd miss all these if I took a purist approach to an imperfect platform — though I absolutely do think the question of a platform boosting pro-Nazi voices has to be discussed openly.

Unlike many of those using that discussion now to divide progressives into purer and less-pure camps, I actually have some historical proximity to these questions due to my age.

My father was a WWII soldier wounded at the attack on Pearl Harbor.

I just subscribed to Citizen Journalism on Substack and look forward to reading its postings there — as I do to reading incisive, informed progressive commentary by Cadwalladr, Anne Applebaum (whom she cited in this posting), as I do the other 74 good commentators to whose Substack blogs I subscribe, usually for free, since I'm a senior citizen on a fixed income who already stretches that income by donations to multiple worthy groups.

"Substack, has the familiar problems of other VC-funded platforms, but it has also become a thriving hub for independent journalism. And I believe we need to build media networks not empires and collaborating with properly independent voices is how we build a new information ecosystem free from billionaire influence."
