Of course! We’re just throwing ideas here.
If we’re going that route, maybe it would be worth having a Confederation of federated social networks where we could establish nation wide standards, recommendations for hosting, have documentation and a network of volunteers to help.
I dunno. Some provinces don’t have the same priorities. It would create inequalities.
I’d opt for a Canada Wide gathering of services under one organization like Fedecan, only to help with organizing funding and finding resources to help with maintenance and stuff. But at the same time that’s kind of putting all your eggs in one basket.
That’s awesome! I can’t wait for it to grow. I’d love to help in any way I can.
Probably out of context, but do you have any plans of adding other networks up fedecan? Like mstdn.ca?
And are there any plans for other services like Pixelfed, Friendica, or Peertube?
What would be an ideal monthly contribution for lemmy.ca users? I’ve only done punctual donations so far. But I’m willing to do a monthly donation.
No, Proton actually just went from being a company to a non profit recently for the purpose of remaining a privacy focused organization whose mission won’t change.
This is extremely disappointing. :(
Because I looked at the discussion threads for this post and I saw a few early comments where people mentioned they would go back or stick with Google.
I’m not trying to shut down or discourage any discussion. Just pointing out to the people who said they’d go back that it’s not the best solution.
Before you decide to go back to Google or close your account, keep in mind that Proton became a non profit organization with the main mission of protecting your privacy. And as a non profit, they’re not trying to profit off of you in any way.
Going back to Google is the worst solution you can use. Remember that Google donated $1 million to Trump’s inauguration fund. Google also doesn’t care about your privacy. On the contrary, they’re selling your data and using it against you.
While the Proton CEO may be a nut case, he’s only praising the choice that Trump made as the candidate for the antitrust department. While that’s understandably stupid since I don’t believe Trump is going up stick up for the little guy now that he’s got Musk and Zuck in his pocket, at least he didn’t actively donated and enabled Trump either personally or through his platform and spread misinformation.
Think about it.
At least with proton, the fact that you’re different, that you’re 2SLGBTQ+, is safe. Or at least substantially safer than Google.
Look at mister MVP over here.
Eeehhhh… Maybe not. But their conditions are bad, yes
Not surprised. I’ve never seen so much homeless people in Montreal in Québec either. This is a serious problem. The governments are just waiting for it to go away on its own. It’s completely inhumane.
😂 😂 😂 😂
Man… just stop putting complex computers that connect online, turning every fucking thing from your toaster to your whole house into an IoT. We don’t need this.
I just want four wheels with a steering wheel and a couple of pedals to operate my electric car. Not a god damn glorified tablet on wheels.
I saw my first Cybertruck yesterday. It really does look like a dumpster. It looks so cheap! And it doesn’t deliver the performance as advertised at all. I can’t believe people would buy this.
I’m so glad I sold last week at 140. I’ve been meaning to get rid of them as soon as Trump got in office because I had a gut feeling he might fuck something up.
But surprise! China pops up with its own AI and shit hits the fan. It probably won’t last though, but I ain’t buying nvda anymore. Not with their CEO falling in line with every other techno fascists.
