beliefs

i think the web should be weird, free, open, federated, and YOURS. i am an advocate for internet privacy, federated protocols, and libre software. you should be able to own your device, your website, your feed, your communications, your media, your source code, and your files, free from any glowie or corporate interests. i am mostly NEGATIVE towards LLMs and other post-2022 generative AI ventures. specifically, i do not support image, video, audio (NOT TTS!!), or music generative AI in any form. i also support the preservation of media bc no cultural work can belong to capitalism, it is of the commons
