   Yesterday at the @fsf's office I met a fine gentleman who was helping me prepare name tags / lanyards for the conference. He was modest enough that I feel like I only got information out of him by asking the right questions, and because I inquired about how close he and rms were (Richard had come into the office and asked him to do lunch/dinner some time). That person was …

   Looks like f-droid.org has been down for most/all of today. It's somewhat responding now, but can't even get a full page load. Hoping for a speedy recovery!

   This article, while it does mention Qubes, fails to mention one of the most obvious and important things users can do: stop using proprietary operating systems, especially Windows 10. Apple at least places emphasis on user security, but they can still betray you at any moment without your knowledge. If you're not interested in switching away from your proprietary operating…

   Already a call for proposals for the next @fsf !LibrePlanet conference! I was just thinking a week or so ago that I haven't yet caught up from preparing for the last one! I'm excited to think about what this coming year's conference m…

   Liberated 25k lines of code from my employer today. More to come in the future. I made the mistake of waiting to liberate things until they were refactored---the projects were developed under a lot of stress and time constraints (things have since gotten much better), and so the code is nowhere near what I'd be proud of. But I realized that it'd never be liberated, because…

   !gnusocial there was discussion previously about a non-JS fallback for Qvitter. Did any ideas result from that discussion?

    Received the @fsf's #fsfbulletin today. I'm especially impressed by @johns' letter and article "You are what you run".

    @fsf It's not possible to put into words the energy and emotion of the long standing ovation Snowden received. Thank you for organizing such an inspirational event.
    
    Hopefully one year he'll be able to attend LibrePlanet in person.

    @gunvolt I don't—I'll have to try that. Last time I tried I didn't have succees, but if I recall, it's because I also block everything with NoScript (I don't trust random scripts, even if they're free/libre). I can try it with LibreJS enabled instead. Thanks.

    !gnusocial fyi: looks like the repository on Savannah is out of date since Jan 04 '16. I'll fetch from git.gnu.io.

    @clacke @victorhck Some !gnusocial instances seem to have trouble with http->https redirect. I have Quitter followers from some instances, but not others.
    
    I haven't upgraded my instance since I first created it a number of months back, so I can try doing so.

    @fsf I had a great time meeting everyone and speaking at #LibrePlanet. Thanks for such a great time. And my first protest against #DRM. :)

    On that note, !gnusocial should not distribute a #GoogleAnalytics plugin, or even recommend an external one. It already distributes a #Piwik plugin, and that should be enough; GA is proprietary spyware.
    
    I wrote about GA with regards to #GitLab (and their move to #Piwik) here, which states some of the problems:

    !gnusocial will show likes/replies in my Network feed, but not on my profile. I did have "restrict full network view to accounts" enabled, which I just disabled to see if it'd make an effect, but it didn't.
    
    Is there a configuration value that I might be missing? 1.2.0 beta2.
