I had to change itinerary. Instead of going straight to Genova Piazza Principe, [I am first going to Milano Centrale with Frecciarossa 9512](https://traewelling.de/status/8440124 ), then to Genova with InterCity 637.

We are used to insult Trenitalia because of its chaos, but I must say that the service was impeccable this time. Exactly like me, another person missed the conmection, and we were given a special (hamdwritten LoL) ticket telling us we could go to Milan then Genova, even if our route was supposed to go straight to Genova from Firenze.

Finally, a Trenitalia steward literally escorted us to the train to Milan, and coordinated with the train manager to find a seat for us.

All of this happened **in 8 minutes**.

🚄 Berlin to SanremoThis thread documents my journey home from #DWebCamp, exclusively via railway, expected to last 25 hours.

More specifically: [yesterday I travelled back to Berlin from Alte Hölle, Wiesenburg (Mark) station](https://pan.rent/@tommi/116919136722509330 ); today from Warschauer Straße to Berlin Hauptbanhof, then to München Hauptbanhof, then overnight to Firenze Campo di Marte, then tomorrow to Genova Piazza Principe, and finally to Taggia Arma.

Most importantly, [here is the playlist of this journey](https://listenbrainz.org/playlist/d48c2c3c-6f6f-438b-93d8-535c0473a57e/ ).

This seems *so good*, but it makes me wonder how active those 10k users actually are… Probably no way to know that because of zero telemetry, but is there any way to tell if the impact on the server is minimal because of great chatmail relay efficiency or because people are not using arcanechat.me much? 🤔

Also, you are using [this](https://github.com/chatmail/relay ), right?

Dato il deprimente e dilagante astensionismo italiano, sarebbe una bella idea piazzare i seggi IN MEZZO a posti trafficati come le stazioni, come fanno qui nei Paesi Bassi.

Tutto colorato e preso bene, così ti senti un po’ un fiacco imbecille se non ti esprimi su chi vuoi ti rappresenti politicamente.

Poi, non che qui la situazione sia esente da fascismo o retorica reazionaria, però almeno in termini di affluenza lo scenario non è disperato.

2026-02-16T17:07:55Z

Sooooo my recent mishaps with server administration are making me speed up my plans of shifting towards community-owned and -maintained hosting.

Ever since my conversation with Boris Mann (npub1xjl…5mj0) almost one year ago, I took his quote “self-hosting is selfish” as a mantra. It’s time to act accordingly.

Together with holly 🐜 (npub1zle…j2yy) and Youjung Noh (npub1xfl…gynk), we are putting together a group of tech-savy people who want to, respectively:<li>Learn more about system administration</li><li>Get their hands dirty while doing so</li><li>Maintain our own shared server</li><li>Host their own things (be them websites, projects, or services) together with comrades instead of individual infrastructure.</li>

There are *many* super cool collectives that are doing this already, and we intend to draw inspiration from their work and their documentation, but we really want to do this together!

Who wants to join? Please, do reach out! I already spun up a small-ish VPS that is now hosting all my static websites. If you’d like to get involved, reach out and I would be happy to give you SSH access 🌻

We would also be very grateful if more experienced sysAds want to help us out by hosting workshops or brief classes.

We intend to meet for the first time in South Holland (but maybe virtually too) sometime during the first two weeks of March.

Next steps:<li>Find a name for this group/server/mission</li><li>Plan a series of (free, open) intro lessons with guests</li><li>Start hosting some things</li><li>Migrate things I am already hosting with YunoHost in our community server</li><li>Migrate to a physical device in a home of ours?</li>

EDIT: I forgot to add this, but it goes without saying that ours would be a **queer** and **transfeminist** server

In today’s prototyping class at XPUB (npub159r…xrh2) we have been looking at Nginx logs live.

It is **CRAZY** to see the actual amount of bot connecting to our website and our wiki 😱🤬

I decided not to use *any* analytics on my website [a while ago](https://tommi.space/meta/#no-analytics! ) already, but I am wondering if it exist an Internet traffic measurement tool based *exclusively* on information from Nginx logs?

I would gladly prefer something simple that stays in the terminal, but I would not mind installing something that can be also publicly accessible (like Grafana).

[Federating knowledge: exploring ways to bridge wikis and notes](https://pretalx.wikimedia.de/39c3-2025/talk/GKNLVZ/ )Join the workshop at #39C3!

NEW DATE: **Day 4, 13:40** @ [Free Knowledge Habitat Workshop Area](https://39c3.c3nav.de/l/free-knowledge-workshop-area/ ).

*Most people and organisations have their very own way of acquiring, organising, archiving, sharing, and collaborating on knowledge repositories. A broad spectrum of opinions and approaches resulted in a diverse and rich ecosystem of knowledge management solutions. Nevertheless, this also implies scattered and disconnected knowledge sources. What would it mean to build bridges among wikis and federate knowledge?*

This workshop is going to be heavily centred on a twofold discussion, exploring the challenge of federated knowledge starting from two questions.
What does it mean to federate knowledge repositories?
Instead of pursuing a silver-bullet solution to embrace all use-cases, what would it mean to foster and enable interoperability for different software?

These questions stem from years of questioning and wondering how to integrate my personal note-taking and collective, participatory knowledge management at work, in organisations, institutions, and informal collectives. Recently, I began actively researching this topic as I started playing with the [MediaWiki API](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API ) to cross-synchronise my local Markdown notes and the [XPUB wiki](https://pzwiki.wdka.nl/mediadesign/ ), the public learning wiki of the [Experimental Publishing](https://xpub.nl ) master. I am puzzled by taking advantage of the potential of a specific software (in this case, MediaWiki) while fearing of being locked-in.

Some further, more specific, insights and questions:
Local-first approaches and software (e.g. https://github.com/p2panda/reflection" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Reflection)
Interesting experiments based on existing protocols, such as https://ibis.wiki" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Ibis
What do we take of semi-open and obscure yet very cool initiatives like https://anytype.io" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Anytype
The power and the limits of plain-text: how to enable collaboration on simple Markdown files and build on top of it, as https://obsidian.md" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Obsidian does

Looking for Fediverse oddities!I am super late, OVER THE DEADLINE to submit the slides of [my talk](https://www.sfscon.it/talks/what-is-the-fediverse-defining-values-and-key-challenges/ ) at [SFSCON](https://www.sfscon.it ) 2025, but I still want to add a few little things, and I need tips.

My presentation ends by listing a few “crazy but true” things about the Fediverse.

Can you help me find a few more in the next couple hours?

So far I have:<li>Truth Social uses Mastodon and it was forced to open-source its code after it was discovered</li><li>Some public institutions host their own Fediverse instances!</li><li>You could host a Fediverse server in your living room</li><li>You can use a car’s on-board computer to power a Fediverse server</li><li>You can synchronize your personal calendar with federated calendars from the Fediverse (using <a href="https://mastodon.cisti.org/@gancio"; class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@gancio</a>)</li><li>You can buy indie music by paying an artist directly (using <a href="https://clip.place/accounts/bandwagon"; class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@bandwagon</a>)</li><li>You can do academic peer-reviews via the Fediverse (using <a href="https://indieweb.social/@bonfire"; class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@bonfire</a>)</li>

What else??? I only want *cool* or *incredible* things.

Stepping down as Framework Linux Community AmbassadorsWe are [Tommi](https://tommi.space/ ) and [Fraxinas](https://fraxinas.dev/ ), Framework Linux Community Ambassadors [since September 2024](https://community.frame.work/t/framework-linux-community-ambassador-program-launch/57771 ).

We apprehensively followed the developments and [the debate](https://community.frame.work/t/framework-supporting-far-right-racists/75986 ) concerning Framework’s endorsement and support of Omarchy. We have no direct experience with this Linux distribution, its community, nor with the political environment around it. We did not speak up before now because learning about all of it and keeping up with all the commentary would have been a full-time job. Unfortunately we do not have the time to read every single comment on the dedicated forum thread.

Despite our admittedly limited and superficial understanding of this matter, we believe we have witnessed and read enough to make an informed decision and take a clear position.

The statements from Framework and from Nirav Patel (its CEO) made it very clear for us that **Framework is not a company we feel represented by any more, and surely not a company that we want to represent as Ambassadors**.

To be frank, it is not even necessary to dive into the petty drama about the recent events in order to provide an explanation of our decision. We are deeply disappointed by a company that is self-proclaimed as the resistance of the tech industry, the good David that intends to stand against the big tech Goliaths that are devouring it. Framework’s behaviour brought to surface an embarrassing and absurd inability to take an explicitly political position, **blinded by the Western patriarchal narrative that technology in itself is *not* political**. By trying to keep everyone happy (or at least not to make anyone mad) inside a fictitious “big tent”, the company proved to be no better than any of its Silicon Valley peers, **dismissing comments about DHH, and comments about fascism and racism as not strictly related to the main mission**.

We were proud to be ambassadors because we believed that Framework not only made products that empowered those who purchase them to fully own and repair their devices, but most importantly because **we wrongly expected that this would imply changing the paradigm and the narrative about tech companies altogether**.

We were offered the possibility of having a 1:1 conversation with Nirav Patel. We did not take it, because it is self-evident that **our opinions are in contrast with the statements that he already made**. Too bad, Framework is going to lose much more business than it would have if it simply acknowledged a mistake, took a deep inward look, and questioned its own values and stance.

In a world that is burning, thorn by conflict and greed, **it is not enough to be “less evil”**, to be radical only in some cases, and be moderate in others. We wanted to be ambassadors of a company that does not see fascism and proprietary software as two distant topics, but that recognised **the entanglement of politics and technology, of capitalism and authoritarianism**. It seems that this is not the case.

Farewell, Framework. We will miss the shining brave idea we had of you.

— Tommi 🤯 (npub1drf…fpxa) and Fraxinas (npub12k3…qdfu)

Request for support: **Looking for a home in Rotterdam!** 🛏️

I will be studying here (at XPUB (npub159r…xrh2)) for the next two years, but I found *nothing* after *five months* of searches.

I am privileged enough to have many friends and couches where to crush, but I am extremely tired and frustrated because **I don’t have any stable nor long-term housing**. 😩

(If necessary, I am considering also Delft and Den Haag)

[Here’s my introduction](https://nl.woongroep.net/en/entry/21319 ). Could you help me spread the word? 🌻

**Can’t connect to public WiFi via Linux**

I am using Fedora 42, and I am unable to access the captive portal of inOui TGV. I can connect to the WiFi with no problems, but I can’t get access to the Internet.

I have tried **everything**:<li>Connecting to <code>192.168.1.1</code>, to <code>http://http.dev</code>;, to <code>http://wifi.sncf</code>; via browser</li><li>Running <code>sudo dhclient -r</code> and rebooting the device</li><li>Running <code>systemctl restart NetworkManager</code></li><li>Also other stuff I tried in the past with other public WiFis. I am sure there is something wrong with my specific device configuration, it’s not this network.</li>

Nothing works 😩

Can somebody who understands this stuff help me?

Does anyone here have information about the status of **Matrix-WhatsApp bridging/interoperability?** (Maybe The Matrix.org Foundation (npub1m9z…whzq)?) 🤔

Ads coming to WhatsApp is making me much more frustrated than I already was. I haven’t been updating the app since the introduction of Meta AI, but now WhatsApp is demanding that I update within 15 days or I won’t be able to use the app anymore.

So, the time has come: I have **two weeks to backup and quit WhatsApp for good**.

Since I’m here: could I also ask for your advice for local-only, **not cloud**, software that can **backup ALL my #WhatsApp chats** and store them locally in a browsable format/database? I found out about [WhatsApp-Chat-Chat-Exporter](https://github.com/KnugiHK/WhatsApp-Chat-Exporter ) but I’d like to learn more before testing it out.

Boosts welcome, let’s help each other and resist the broligarchy together! ✨

Server monitoring 101I have been running a YunoHost :neopossum_uwu: (npub129e…3cyx) server for ~5 years now, but there is one question I have never been able to answer: **how loaded is my server?** 👀

I know, I am a terrible sysad (actually, I am *not* a sysad, at all), because I have no idea how to determine:<li>if my server is running smoothly</li><li>if the server is under stress, and why</li><li>what applications are the heaviest</li><li>if there is the possibility of installing more apps</li><li>when peaks of stress are happening and what is causing them</li>

In general, I would like to understand **the fundamentals of server monitoring**: what are the most critical metrics and what do they mean? What parameters do I have to keep an eye on?

I installed Prometheus and Grafana, but then I realized I have absolutely no idea what to do next… Do you have any suggestions?

I thought about watching some video tutorials, but I would not really know **how they would relate to YunoHost** installations.

Please, if possible reply [in this thread of the YunoHost forum](https://forum.yunohost.org/t/yunohost-monitoring-101/37183 ), so that we can keep track of this useful information also for others in the future. 🌻

Once I will have learned the basics, I would be very happy to write some pointers about this in the documentation, or an **essential YunoHost Monitoring tutorial**.

2025-06-04T12:19:54Z

I believe it is one of our missions, as antifascist nerds, to **break the myth of an inaccessible and complex technology**. The tools, services, and software we all use everyday are the more or less indirect outcome of broader socio-political and economical dynamics. Therefore, we can and we should bring forward a massive resistance as we do on other fronts.

How do we do burst the bubble?

How can we practically unmask the **politicality of technology** to people outside the digital sector?

How do we **popularize digital media critique**?

What **forms of art**, **workshops**, and **formats** could take advantage of?

On Wed **11 June**, at **14:00 UTC**, I will be hosting an **online round-table** session with Coalition for Independent Tech (npub14vl…2u7h) to discuss and try to answer these questions.

I will be briefly sharing my experience and my ideas after making [*Knitting Our Internet*](https://ournet.rocks/ ). Above all, though, I want to welcome any kind of contributions to address this mission in a **multifaceted**, **intercultural**, **intersectional**, and **decolonial** way.

Looking for CMS adviceHey Web devs!

Do you have any suggestions, tips, opinions, dos, don’ts about **headless CMS**es?

I have a growing list of small/mid non-profits and collectives asking for my help to (re)make their website. I totally want to help, but I don’t have much time, especially considering that they generally have little or no funding—I would most definitely point them to Village One Cooperative (npub1gej…9nq6), otherwise.

Therefore, I want a super simple and replicable solution where I can copy-paste most of the code, while providing them with a stable, fast, and modern solution. I had a look at the [Headless CMS section in the Jamstack website](https://jamstack.org/headless-cms/ ), but I need opinions from people who actually used some of that software already.##

I didn’t know about this (thank you for sharing your discovery, wakest ⁂ (npub1xse…lgk3)), but it’s a wonderful coincidence that this very day at 15:00 I’ll be hosting [Knitting Our Internet](https://ournet.rocks/ ) at the newly open [SCIFT Makespace](https://municipiozero.it/scift )! The workshop will most probably be in Italian, but we’ll be open to switch to English if non-Italian speakers are coming.

My battery drains faster than a truck burning fuel. My CPU goes crazy. Bugs break the little concentration I have.

This is mainly a lesson to myself: **do not use beta software** unless you are truly and fully committed to address the potential consequences.

Going back to vanilla #Firefox, hopefully switching to LibreWolf (npub1vpu…608s) as soon as I have some time to get it up and running.

Non sei veramente Carlo Gubitosa :nonviolenza: (npub1wpv…xf2h) se non posti un po’ di bisticci politici, però è super vero, io lo sento un sacco. Lo dimostra il fatto che la nostra istanza è italiana, gestita da associazione italiana, ma totalmente internazionale!

Happy [**I Love Free Software Day**](https://ilovefs.org )! 💕

Unfortunately, this year I could not join nor organize any in-person celebration, BUT of course I want to share my gratitude to the many, *countless* #FreeSoftware services I don’t merely use, but actually *depend* on.

Last year, I decided to focus only on #YunoHost, because it would have been crazy to list all the projects I use and I love.

This time, even if I will most certainly forget someone, I am challenging myself to mention *all* the #LibreSoftware my life is powered by.

Without further ado, **THANK YOU** to:<li><a href="https://toot.aquilenet.fr/@yunohost"; class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@yunohost</a>, for powering <a href="https://tommi.space/neb/";
