First up and most interesting me as a grantee, impact stories showcasing exceptional contributions from NGI innovators featuring @NGIZero.
@EC_NGI funded over 1,000 projects in the last few years.
80% of grantees have not received funded from any other EU program, meaning it found a meaningful niche.
12–15 months to first results compared to 5 years for other Horizon programs.
Alexandre Garel presenting Open Food Facts, the Wikipedia or Open Street Map of nutrition facts.
This is quite expensive data to license from commercial vendors. Great to have thousands of people contributing to open data freely available as an alternative.
Recently added environmental impact score of foods. Working on improving search capabilities.
New project: Open *Product* Facts for documenting components of any type of product.
Next up, Pouhiou from @Framasoft presenting PeerTube.
PeerTube is an decentralized, federated alternative to YouTube and Twitch.
@NGIZero funded feature development of improved search, remote transcoding, and all major features in v6. More than funds, it received help with networking, accessibility, and diversity & inclusion.
The EU Commission, multiple EU country governments, universities are using PeerTube. Over 1000 instances now in just 6 years.
I will be live blogging #NGIForum23 in this thread. Feel free to follow along or mute this thread. 😁
~“We're here to reimagine and reengineer the Internet. First step is to figure out what we want. That’s what this conference is here for.” —Jennifer Baker, tech policy journalist and MC
@EC_NGI First up: Roberto Viola, Director General for Communication Networks, Content, and Technology at the European Commission
He argues the unregulated Internet exploited the worst of humanity. The EU has demonstrated how regulation can keep things open, private, empowering for individuals, and fair for business competition.
“Doing nothing is not a choice.”
Ok bro, you’ve informed me you love Christ in your bio, but do you love queer people, immigrants, and people failed by capitalism too?
How do you show your stated love for Christ other than mentioning it in your bio?
The people who have harmed me the most in life also loved Christ, so please understand why I need some more information.
I will be attending @fediforum today and tomorrow if anyone wants to chat about my work bringing support for WebMonetization.org to the social Web or @Interledger in general.
@Techmeme This is a giant leap in enabling 43% of the websites on the Internet to join the social layer of the Web. The big outstanding questions are when the plugin will be bundled by default with WordPress and when WordPress.com will include it in its free tier.
@evan Does sparkling tap water count as soda?
@clacke I loved it. I think I rewatched the final music scene 5+ times in the days following my first viewing. It’s brilliant.
I work in tech, fight for digital rights and the environment, kiss dudes, cycle, lift heavy things, and don’t eat animals. Swedish immigrant, US American emigrant. Occasionally shirtless.
