It does seem like Silicon Valley firms maneuvering politically right now could be sacrificing billions of global users to retain… I guess the ability to do what they want for a while longer with 300 million users.
It would be interesting to know how much they gamed it out.

@evan that’s an interesting idea. I do wonder how governments with highly censored internets will handle federation.
When I lived in China, lots of sites like Reddit were still unblocked because I assume they didn’t have the resources to track and judge everything on the internet.

When @heliomass and I hung out a while back we were talking about #threads users who haven't federated yet.
I found a good one! Ezra Klein seems to have left Twitter for Threads but didn't click the button.
Click the button Ezra!

@evan this is in Montreal? I’d be interested in hearing how events unfolded when you’re up and about.
Traffic calming and safer streets is one of my beats.

Ontario's best provincial politician on housing is back at it. Now with a Ford Nation Friendly bill name!
It's a good one, technocratic, right down the center politically.
The progressive conservatives should just swing in and support this. No-one is going to trust what they pitch next on housing and there's plenty here that aligns with their economic philosophy.

Can you imagine how much better our politics would be if there were more Mike Schreiners out there?
He's a measured and reasonable environmental type actually trying to find common ground.

Peertube 6 just added the ability to replace videos and password protect videos. These are two big wins in the @peertube column for me vs YouTube.
I'd love to see some sort of membership or synchronization with Patreon. Kind of need to figure out how to get paid without YouTube in the picture for it to really takeoff.
