  • We need more than 2 popular and accessible types of mobile OS 📱

    We need more than 2 popular and accessible types of desktop OS 🖥️

    We need more than 2 popular and accessible types of browsers

    We need more than 2 popular high-capacity cloud services ☁️

    We need more than a 2 popular and secure end-to-end encrypted email services 📧

    We need more than a few popular and secure end-to-end encrypted messaging apps 💬

    We need SO much more diversity in tech!

    There seems to be a tendency to just pit projects against each other (or buy each other) until we only get 2 options in the end. This is horrible for consumer choices, for security, for privacy, for resilience, and just leads to more enshitification everywhere once people are locked in systems without viable alternatives.

    We need much more options, everywhere.
    Celebrate and encourage diversity.
    In tech, and everywhere else.

    Will you join me in making Europe a better place? I have just signed a petition: Don’t let Big Tech lobbyists exploit our data!. This is an issue I really care about. Will you sign too?

    🤦‍♂️UK. ‘Students at the University of Staffordshire have said they feel “robbed of knowledge and enjoyment” after a course they hoped would launch their digital careers turned out to be taught in large part by AI.’Disrespectful to the students https://www.theguardian.com/education/2025/nov/20/university-of-staffordshire-course-taught-in-large-part-by-ai-artificial-intelligence#ai #tech #education

    Wait, #openai is valued at $500 *billion*?Are you kidding me? I wouldn't value it at more than $1 billion and that's being optimistically generous.Of course there's a lot more to the article, which is informative, but the $500B is shocking for an environmentally damaging free product which plagiarizes existing works to function.https://www.theregister.com/2025/10/15/openais_chatgpt_popular_few_pay/?td=rt-3a#ai #tech #waste

    Trust is always revocable. If you liked a product or piece of software, and it becomes worse, changes the conditions, adds spying functions, you can change your mind and stop trusting and using it. You should always re-adjust your judgment when receiving new information. This is applicable to products, platforms, companies, political parties, and people. #Tech #Trust #Consent
