Bluesky isn't decentralized - and might never get there.

Until there is another instance it's not federated.

We're seeing a substantial increase on the Mastodon instance I help moderate too, but there's no aggregate marketing department at Mastodon so we don't get any headlines.

You want Matrix. Synapse if you intend to host for others, Conduit if you just want to host for yourself. There are quite a few different clients but I do indeed use ElementX on mobile.

I think this would be a good time for you to study the subject you intend to discuss.

In February 2015, Russia and Ukraine signed the Minsk II agreements

Beginning in 2021, there was a massive Russian military buildup near Ukraine's borders, including within neighbouring Belarus. Russian officials repeatedly denied plans to attack Ukraine.

So if Russia and Ukraine instead sign a peace deal with borders similar to where they are now, and Russia doesn't invade the rest of europe and Georgia, will you do any introspection?

In 2014 Russia invaded Crimea and the easternmost part of Ukraine. Then said the had absolutely no intention of expanding.

Cue 2022.

At which point did you do your introspection?

Shops in Sweden very often state that they don't accept cash - and it's perfectly legal for them to make that choice.

Haven't used it for years.

Climate change is not a risk to human survival. Please study the WG2 parts for the possible risks we're facing depending on when and how much action we take.

You're correct in that large parts of Russia don't have indoor toilets and proper sanitation. Not sure that's a positive.

 

Swedish author and famous pro-Ukraine blogger Lars Wilderäng (Cornucopia) reports today that the Swedish security expert Karl Emil Nikka has revealed that Kagi is using the Kremlin propaganda tool Yandex as a backend for searches.

Wilderäng speculates this might mean search terms are leaking to Russia, while others worry about how Kremlin thus can get their talking points into western search results.

Security expert Karl Emil Nikka tells us that the search engine Kagi, popular among tech geeks, uses Russian Yandex, which was introduced after the full-scale invasion. This, of course, gives Russia the opportunity to look at what is searched for via Kagi.
