Another small victory today.
A salesperson had almost convinced a client to move their email from 365 to Google because "they hold all the cards now". I stepped in and suggested they keep their email on servers that they control instead. The salesperson almost mocked me, treating me like a "nerd" who doesn't understand how the world works.
I was happy to be a nerd, if necessary, to explain the pros and cons of the solution to the client.
The result? The salesperson was politely thanked and "sent home", and I'm now evaluating some details of the new mail server, which, by the client's choice, will be based on OpenBSD.Because people need explanations, not brochures.
@stefano This is the direction we need to head (back) toward. Good work! 😎

@stefano with your permission, i am definitely saying "can you provide an explanation instead of this brochure?" Next time a client sends me a brochure they were sent by a sales rep for my consideration 🙄

@stefano i'm full of envy , did not have clients on my mail servers since the great Zimbra days . my personal server is DoveCot and Postdix although i'm afraid to give it to my clients and handle the endless problems with mails they MSFTshit is blocking. .

What would ICEBlock on the Fediverse look like?

okay the block game site is live! https://enikofox.com/blockgame/
particularly proud of the feed of mastodon posts below the FAQ :3 it handles images, video, gif, audio, and "unknown" media

@d10c4n3 @LaVi @bbacc @childishangel se funziona o meno dipende molto da tipo di pubblico che si ha, da quanto spesso si scrive, se e quanto si usano gli hashtag e compagnia bella. Il punto chiave da ricordare è che la diffusione non è algoritmica, ma organica. E non è un male boostare i propri post per migliorarne la visibilità a diverse ore del giorno (o della notte)

@mcc It was really great getting to hang out. We should have done a selfie together, though!

You think better when you're naked.
