all I’m gonna say is that I am a life-long slightly edgy poster and I’ve never caught a suspension or a ban anywhere - because it is in fact quite easy to avoid crossing the “this joke could possibly be construed as a violent threat” line on social media

sooo i have spent the majority of my career working to fight the sexual abuse of minors and i also think that normalizing posts about violence towards women is bad (however repulsive the women and their beliefs are)

obvi no one is feeding anyone to a woodchipper but i'm with bluesky T&S on this one

I’m giving a talk at @eurosky.social titled “EuroCloud to App Liftoff in the ATmosphere”

As EuroCloud builds out hardware and infra services, what are the opportunities for building the next generation of EU designed & hosted apps?

With ATProto building blocks.

Super proud to be part of the EU Horizon proposal Social-PETs. It aims to bring privacy-enhancing tech (PETs) like homomorphic encryption and secure multiparty computation to open social networks such as #ATProto, making powerful recommender systems possible without centralised data.
