Radical notions: I don't want my computer to proactively find what it expects me to ask for. If it's predicting me at all, it should be to /warn me against/ making predictable moves.

Really happy to see the term "user freedom" taking off more. A lot of what we do spans more than just the software itself; network freedoms a great example. And users are and should be the focus.

The European Regulation project to censor the Web for "security reasons" is a terrible idea, using the fear of terrorism to silence all of the Internet. Even if it were effective against extremists, permanent state repression is a bigger danger: https://u.fsf.org/2py -

I'm considering running a scholar/academic/research/education oriented #peertube instance, wondering how much interest there is in it on this bit of the #fediverse?
It seems very doable, but bit steep in investment cost (hardware). I think it should be doable with a running cost of ca 100-150,- per month for hosting and hardware. Assuming sponsored/donated admin-time.
