I am not that active these days, but when I saw it I was really excited: #Fodongo zine has gone to "annual subscription" plan, apart from the donations and per issue support!! And not just digital, but physical and the paper smell and feeling is so good :3
Best part is that it's a #comic zine for #openculture #freeculture and in general #freedom in #art with one HECK of a good editor (who treats the artists in the most human way possible @jectoons) I'd be really really happy if you could support it, to help comic artist and art and free culture! Thanks for reading! <3

Since #deepseek, #Trump and the rise of the #Antichrist,
more and more people are interested in a self-determined life. At least #online you can do something about it. #Offline you have to get rid of the asshole yourself... sorry.

Is your Mastodon feed the same thing over and over?
There are a few hashtags I have discovered where following them tends to bring in a more diverse field of content different from the technical content that I am usually most interested in following, and this makes things a lot more interesting:
#library #libraries #museum #museums #community #OpenCulture #CreativeCommons
Also follow hashtags for the city you live in, you may meet someone who lives nearby that might have similar interests to you.
So that is my #StarterPack for everyone who has recently joined. There are no algorithms on Mastodon to feed you what you like, so you “follow” hashtags instead. It takes a while to find the right set of hashtags to follow but eventually things get to be very interesting.
What better way to spend a Sunday than with great people, contributing to an incredible project? Happy Birthday, #Wikipedia!
It took longer than planned, but we just released Bjørnstigen - a map for Venzone, which is an ASCII platformer game made by @ffaff .
https://thunderperfectwitchcraft.itch.io/bjrnstigen
Rather exotic for the genre, Bjørnstigen is primarily focused on narration: Obstacles, difficult situations, and the flow of the level design are used as tools to convey emotions and ideas. But still, it is directed to experienced players, and playing the original game is very recommended before tackling it.

Jimi Hendrix Wreaks Havoc on the Lulu Show, Gets Banned From the BBC (1969)
I remember watching this on TV and wondering ho on earth Jimi Hendrix got to be on the Lulu show!
Open CultureJimi Hendrix Wreaks Havoc on the Lulu Show, Gets Banned From the BBC (1969)Can you imagine Jimi Hendrix singing a duet with Lulu? Well, neither could Hendrix. So when the iconoclastic guitar player showed up with his band at the BBC studios in London on January 4, 1969 to appear on Happening for Lulu, he was horrified to learn that the show's producer wanted him to sing with the winsome star of To Sir, With Love.

He's an open-source character; just let me know if you use him so I can include it on the website.
One of the themes for #FluConf2025 is "open licensing and business models".
A lot of people on the fediverse will probably take that to mean *software licensing*, but we're interested in a much broader range of topics.
We want to hear about open licenses for scientific publications, data, art, games, text, and whatever else we haven't thought of.
Share why you think it's important. Write about how overly permissive commons are being enclosed by corporations. Tell the world how you choose licenses for your own creations, and how others licensing choices influence your perception of their projects.

If you have projects, ideas, or commentary related to free/open-source software or other aspects of free culture which you'd like to share, but don't want to risk attending an event that has no meaningful health policy, then please consider applying!

Il faut que cela soit les sirènes de l’IA qui poussent les institutions à changer de modèle et mettre à disposition du contenu du domaine public. Si c’est une bonne chose pour les LLM, c’est d’un immense mépris pour le savoir et la connaissance libre. L’article de WIRED mentionne les institutions culturelles qui avaient, depuis longtemps, choisi d’autres modèles (car oui l’open content c’est pas nouveau).
Je ressens beaucoup d’amertume face à l’Institutional Data Initiative d’Harvard qui a fait l’objet, notamment, de ces 2 papiers

It's out! My second "official" (3rd unofficial story) is out with this Fodongo issue!!
It has spaceships (well, one actually), prisons, implants, action and some comedy!!!
But most importantly it's a free/openculture derivative (i.e. freedom to create anything based on someone else's work without any copyright headaches) of @HarukaK 's work "About a shipwreck" (https://fodongo.jectoons.net/comic/about-a-shipwreck-by-haruka-kanata/)!
For more info https://fodongo.jectoons.net/2024/11/25/issue-11-out-now/
You can either buy it and support the artists and free/openculture or wait for the comics to become freely available in due time :)
Please do check it out!

I own a Kindle Paperwhite, and have had this line since 2014 (it's my third; the previous two were donated to two people I love who don't have the same reading intensity I do and were super happy with a perfectly functional ereader, but wouldn't have bought one, while I really wanted great performance.
