I'd rather Canada join the EU than the USA
In case it wasn't clear: I am anti-fascist, anti-racism, anti-sexism, anti-homophobia, and believe black and trans lives matter.
If you have a problem with that, smash that unfollow button.
I proudly stand beside the most vulnerable who seek refuge from hate and abuse.
Your safety and dignity are non-negotiable.
In a world that too often turns away,
I commit to creating spaces where your voice matters, your experiences are validated, and your humanity is celebrated without question.

I had to put my dog down two days ago suddenly, and I'm still kinda broken.
He got me though the darkest times of my life, he would sit and watch me code for hours every night, building @PixelFed
We had so many amazing times together, but I can't help feel guilty and blame myself for not getting him help sooner.
I'd trade everything, including the kickstarter and grants just to have him back. He was my everything.
Give your puppers a big hug for me, they love us so much โค๏ธ
I want to apologize for my disrespectful comments about @vernissage
My reaction to the transition from Pixelfed was emotional and unprofessional.
While I felt hurt by how the changes were handled, expressing that through negative comments was wrong and immature.
This behavior doesn't reflect my values or the constructive dialogue I want to promote in our community.
I take full responsibility for my actions and will strive to engage more respectfully in the future.
@Edent Unfortunately not for 2025, hopefully 2026.
I can easily get my passport, but I am not a fan of heights and haven't been on a plane since I was a kid.
Are you going? If so, please take lots of pics and share your experiences for the rest of us ๐ค
me: *travels to europe*
police: you are under arrest
me: why
police: too many compliments
me: and I'll say them again, better throw away the key
Just kidding, but seriously, as someone who never left Canada, I can't wait to get my passport and meet some of y'all
Maybe in 2025?
And yeah, I'm getting dogpilled for some ignorant statements I made regarding the Canada Post strike because I was worried I could not pay rent.
It takes privilege to worry about pro-union sentiment when you are worried about becoming homeless.
But you do you I guess
@darnell @potus Yeah those situations are tough and everyone is affected.
It sucks that people think I'm some hyper capitalist anti-union monster, I am just someone who gets paid via mail. I empathize with the affected people and hope it gets resolved soon!
@darnell Yeah, honestly, I think its a complicated issue and I feel bad for the hard workers that deliver the mail and wish our gov't would meet their demands so we can get back to normal.
I meant that originally, I just should have clarified a bit, since I haven't been paid all month and was so worried about my finances.
I am considering a Bluesky approach to @loops, but in ActivityPub!
What I mean is that it will be vital to auth, discovery and the algorithmic FYP, for Loops to provide a centralized service and make it easy for users, while also allowing admins to opt-out and limit their Loops instance accordingly.
We can have the best of both worlds, and who knows, we may even support native AtProto eventually!
The goal is to empower short form video sharing, wherever possible!
Are you with us? ๐
The internet can be homophobic.
The internet can be racist.
Most fediverse developers have privilege.
We have a responsibility to use that privilege to build a better, more inclusive online space.
Let's start listening to marginalized voices, amplify their experiences, and work together to create a Fediverse where everyone feels safe and welcome.
Oh cool, Mastodon added hovercards.
Isn't it ironic that the Pixelfed hovercards look more like twitters than mastodons ๐
y'all ready for #groups?
@heluecht Nope, it was a bug on our end!
@heluecht Nice! I'm working on fixing federation between Pixelfed and Friendica!
Experimenting with a new Network feed of Pixelfed only accounts, itโs so much better ๐
Don't get me wrong, I love Mastodon and everything it's done for the fediverse
That being said, I don't want Loops to become the only short form video platform, or the only well known one
I'm working with @stux on his own short vid platform called #GoldFish and PeerTube to enable seamless interop
We're stronger and better together
There is no reason NOT to work with "competitors" because when you have the right mindset and goals:
You build for the people, and listen wisely.
@heluecht We have it, but need to update it.
