#techrights and other IRC channels, partly because we want to encourage more people to wean themselves off the DRM-ready Web, the monoculture, the bloat, the surveillance, and centralisation in general (the Web favours centralisation, which is exacerbated by the bloat and other topological dynamics)
THE addition of aggregated logs yesterday morning has meant that even without an IRC client or a Web browser it is possible to track all our channels, either from thew command line, a text editor, or something else, as shown in the video above.
"We plan to publish more articles instead of messing about with logistics."There was already a file for #techrights (updated every 5 minutes in http://techrights.org/irc and in gemini://gemini.techrights.org/chat/index.gmi), but its scope was limited to one single channel.
The community of Techrights is still as strong as ever. We've managed to endure and survive the semi-exit from Freenode (merely a fallback now), which means we're also moving in the direction we explored/entertained a year ago (IRC de-centralisation).
In the background of the video one can see blinking lights, which indicate IPFS status. I wrote a program for it. It works reasonably well after all these months.
It has now been 3 days since the BT kerfuffle (and two weeks since having to replace my keyboard and learn this wholly different one), so we've managed to become a lot more productive and a lot more focused again. We plan to publish more articles instead of messing about with logistics. This will be post number 30,999 (see screenshot on the right). ⬆
