hey #indieweb folks, as promised I've started to find a way to donate some time, hardware, and expertise to those looking to carve out some space online. To that end I've got a #VM running #yunohost on some mostly-idle hardware in my basement. If anyone would like to use some self-hosted services or perhaps put their own small website up on the internet, let me know and I'll help you out!

So did I mention that no company or government pays me for the work I do?
But you can support my work if you want to live in a world where we have the Small Web as an alternative to the Big Web of Google, Facebook, and other people farmers.

I love how this “Created by AI, edited by humans” summary of the chat I had with Doc this month starts off mildly enough with “A great chat on FLOSS Weekly regarding alternate funding models to support ethical tech projects…“ and ends a few paragraphs later with “…Balkan provided an urgent call to action to avoid extinction at the hands of unchecked capitalism.”
Well that escalated quickly!
😬 👍

Hello, new fedinauts, I’m Aral. I live on the Emerald Isle with my partner in crime Laura and our trusty sidekick Oskar the huskamute.
I’m working on building the Small Web¹ as an ethical alternative to the Big Web.
Please feel free to say hi. I don’t bite (unless you’re a proud surveillance capitalist/people farmer or a douchebag billionaire) 😀

It’s not about building clones of Twitter, YouTube, etc. There’s no way anyone can self-host a dozen different services. Instead, it’s about having a single-tenant place on the Web that you own and control without technical knowhow; a place you can add Twitter, YouTube, etc., *features* to.
