FreeSchool: Learn Respect Love @freeschool@social.cleverlibre.org
It's about changing / opening our minds...
I give people time and I thnk that's the difference to others online who really don't have or give time and give up on people really easy... (don't mean to be competitive, no put-downs, just I more dedicate time to others and weave us together).
So you don't even have to read any of this because EVERYTHING needs time + communication and without that a lot is broken and even less human even if it's for good...
Just follow and put notifications on to TEST MY FEED.... the rest below is just over-info for most poeple.
Open Learning School or Freedom University...
------------------------------------
A lot you might be at length and depth, but if you're easy about it, you can take the best and even take me along to understand life with others!
To learn and do everything practically! (this is a practical living (and gets stuff done as much as we can).
Fan of Fediverse!
Quick Look - peace-loving work / services:
█ Mini-Podcast (few mins each, examples below)
█ Picture remixes / video remixes
█ Lessons without being too 'teacher' about it. Teacher has teeth for eliminating doubt.
█ Food for thought as gentle soul also.
█ Unique ideas - often impossible for professionals (they are burdened by financial repsonsibility and therefore associational risk in saying things). I'm more diverse and occasionally direct (with respect, though I don't shy away from reminding people).
█ Not too embarrassing to say "I don't know" but can still chase things.
█ More responsive than casual users usually because people think having 'job' is enough in life. I say it's not! And even faimily is of no use if it's only getting worse (in everything!).

I help people create audio / edit educational audio / podcast / music / visual short videos / transcript text
+ I like to add a bit humour while being quite strict in my own politics (opinions) but open / inviting for others to tell me what I should do if they can explain more than just a short comment (I don't mind it's healthy for me at least if you have logic and can stand yourself explaining).
FreeSchool is about Learning towards Freedom (which is about Uniting everyone slowly, even "1 by 1"... Easy with The Fediverse!
Not virtue signalling here only, but practise of EVERYTHING as we go. Judged by getting in contact (many have) and having courage to communicate (or seeking it from others is ok, EVERYONE needs a bit of courage or hand-holding to make big personal changes). Who else is there for example if family doesn't understand?
Learning and watching can be good and staying out of people's way, BUT better is doing something every day and helping each other with some tough decisions / lessons... and then being bold enough to do them. 1... 2... 3 that is all that's needed.
Let my posts do most of the talking.
Put me on notification (click bell that appears after follow ia accepted) and if it's not interesting switch off after and tick me off the list of potential people to follow daily!
Media version of my posts here... open link for later... good for visual scrolling version and judge me on that I don't mind...
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/media
I'm usually impressed with my media gallery as I work on posts a lot usually or hit the "Aha!" moments and capture it (other people may forget it for years, not me!).
Freedom is about *making it work together* better like using #Mastodon on the #Fediverse daily for better platforms with more #bestpractices and 'best' people to help us which I kind of collect here and 
when it's #1 comment!
I am measurably better because I reply and stick to everything to the end(!)
No cancelling friendship suddenly without saying why or being moody!
Freedom is to Learn, Respect and Love eventually and ️to Unite!
Practically it's also like Tetris - add yourself to the puzzle and watch it all happen...
█▬▄▀ ╚ ╦ ╝╠╧
talk more on Mastodon and the Fediverse and puzzle it all out using better ways to less use the other bad commercial / extractive people...
L£$$ of the less caring people like the ggl's / ytb / gmail / mainstream communication points etc who are offering lots of space 'free' and it's not free of peace there.
We GIVE to real people (TIME NOT JUST MONEY).
There's no buy-in solution - we have to make it with selotape or whatever we have - it's not shameful to bring whatever you have.
FreeSchool is terminology put together from many good things from past (coined in 1950's/60's. I / we become it eventually through being.
It's a movement for Freedom via Learning it all (learning self included and less active stuff) and doing the learning *together* --> https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeschool.
I encourage you warmly to participate with me as a I have time and then spiral out naturally to others (we are part of humanity and so naturally a sort of evangelism or ecological pyramid of life as we choose to spread lesser suffering while accepting consuming is part of it).
Less-commercial in orientation (in everything) and happy to think / work for free.
Naturally you will hesitate if someone is sure of themself or ok standing on shoulders what we copy do the best from humbly but not too sterile either.
Based on just emotions ruins almost everything, which seems very common - very ungraceful - so don't disconnect... do it gracefully at least!
A "school" of thought is here you can interact / ask and make best together as free/low cost as possible.
Even a bad answer you can take best from (of course I won't know all your situation when I suggest something but I don't need to answer 100% - you also need to help me!).
Leave perfectionism, we are all imperfect humans! Let's do it... Choose something ANYTHING and keep the thoughts rolling together...!

Q. What's cable burn by the way?
Q. And did the cat hair ever cause any trouble :)
You hear stuff like "grounding / earthing" yourself is needed but rarely perhaps does it ever happen or get in the way so just wondering.
FIREFOX ADD-ON: PAYWALL BYPASS
Read articles from websites that implement a paywall.

Comments / Reviews by users always useful:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bypass-paywalls-clean/reviews/
I personally don't see uch need for it as mass media is not much for me (at all) but thought this was interesting enough, maybe for 1 thing that you really see and like, not just everything because it's free...
QUESTION:
Why wouldn't I want to share/copy over my music directory to someone else?

MASTODON GROUPS TUTORIAL!
(ACTIVITYPUB GROUPS IN THE FEDIVERSE!)
NO EXTRA SIGNUP NEEDED...
USE YOUR FEDIVERSE ACCOUNT
TUTORIAL BELOW:
- SEE A LIST OF GROUPS !
- FOLLOW A GROUP !
- MAKE A GROUP !
- POST IN A GROUP !
ALSO
- HOW TO SEE POSTS?
- TESTING / NOT SURE?
After doing some digging here's my near mini-tutorial about groups...
__________________________________
- SEE LIST OF GROUPS!
https://a.gup.pe/
Also shows follower numbers.
______________________
FOLLOW A GROUP !
- Following a group is done a few ways but I found this way as 100% / BEST WAY so far:
Step 1. Find the name of any group (on https://a.gup.pe/ website)... "Plants" group for example...
2. Put name "Plants" with @ before it in Mastodon Search Box (the top left box):
@plants (and hit enter)
3. The Mastodon search result will show @ plants @ a.gup.pe (without the spaces) as a group
4. Click 
to follow group!
Done!
(If you see two entries in the search results then one might be an old server from before - just follow what the newest which is "a.gup.pe" <--- newest has extra "a." in the address)
__________________
MAKE A GROUP !
- Anyone can make a group.
It's done in 2 ways (your choice both is ok and can't go wrong even if you do both)
METHOD 1 - New groups can be created in the Mastodon Search box. So at the same time as when you use the search to search for it then the group it's automatically made for you in the process if it doesn't already exist! Then it shows up a few seconds later!
METHOD 2 Another way to create group is to *mention it* in a post and also at the same time it is created for you.
Example if I mention:
@ Freeschool @ a.gup.pe (without spaces) then the group will be made!
This group it's now created and if you start typing @ freeschool then you can autocomplete @ Freeschool @ a.gup.pe
SUMMARY
Whatever method you choose from it will create a new group name as you do that method and it will show up when you put that in search box results or mention it in future!
*Immediately* anyone else looking can find the group!
It will not show in the https://a.gup.pe/ website as it has to be more populate to show up there... and better for privacy not to show the smaller groups.
__________________________
MY OTHER COMMENTS:
I personally like they way to create group using no external signup AND using existing Mastodon account.
The Mastodon search box name provides a direct and powerful interface to see things
e.g. "@ freeschool @ a.gup.pe " shows " freeschool " group.
After creating group you can post and mention the group name to people in your group and can be quite private.
______________________
HOW TO SEE POSTS?
Posts show up in timeline like following a person.
To see posts just Mastodon search box in Mastodon with group name (like @ plants) and then click the group name to natively show the existing posts.
I don't think you can enable notifications on these groups (yet) but the usual mentioning / replying / favouriting can show you immediately someone read it or replied.
_____________________
POST IN A GROUP !
To post to a group yourself, mention the " @ plants @gup.pe " address (without spaces) in your post. If you start typing @plants now it will attempt to autocomplete for you so just select the a.gup.pe address from that and you don't have to type out the full address!
Just remember for posting just the group name is needed... use @group and autocomplete will do the rest in your compose box and you can choose the appropriate.
If you delete-redraft post don't worry it will only show once - I re-draft my posts a lot so I know !
Hope this info is worth it to you!
________________________
TESTING / NOT SURE?
If you want to test some messages, feel free to use the Freeschool group by mentioning @ FreeSchool @ a.gup.pe (without the spaces)
or
use search "@freeschool" and select the a.gup.pe group from there.
OTHER NOTES / DETAILS / READING
- Newest website is a.gup.pe
(notice the "a." prefix - Old website was gup.pe which changed earlier in 2022, around April)
- a.gup.pe is the server that is used as a middle between Mastodon without needing separate accounts but rather creates accounts itself on-the-fly / as you ask or search for it!

THANKS & CREDITS
-Thanks FediTips @feditips for initial tip about this - Hope you liked my tutorial :)
- Thanks Will datatitian@social.coop for initially creating guppe groups
Github Info + Description:
https://github.com/wmurphyrd/guppe
"Decentralized social groups with ActivityPub, NodeJS, Express, and Mongodb"
another description:
Guppe is an ActivityPub server that automatically generates group actors and provides distribution functions.
Searching for and following any account in the gup.pe domain, such as in Mastodon, will create a new group which you can then follow.
https://a.gup.pe/
IS THERE A GROUP TALKING ABOUT GUPPE ITSELF?
- A group talking about a.gup.pe itself is at link below. Use if you want to follow / get updates / chat about a.gup.pe itself:
@guppegroups
(or search @guppegroups)

FAQ / INTERESTING QUESTIONS
__________________________________
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN HASHTAG AND GUPPE GROUP?
@GuppeGroups helps actively grow your network of people around topics of interest. So if two unconnected people both participate in same group, it will cause them to become connected and see each other.
Hashtag doesn't have this unless you happen to post at same time and look yourself at hashtag page more aggressively / manually etc.
The Guppe group way *let's you* know and choose to follow it more actively listening.
Hashtags are more a way of organizing toots and checking when you want (not sure if a tool exists or worth it for high-traffic hashtags)
POSTING TO GROUP VIA PUBLIC OR UNLISTED POST?
"Public" in your post setting (when writing any post) will get it seen asap.
"Unlisted" level of post means everyone in the group will still get it, but it won't appear in local or global timelines, just when someone is looking in the group specifically.
RECOMMEND ANY GROUPS / ANY OTHER EXAMPLES?
@ retrocomputing @ gup.pe is the OLD group without a. in server (still can see the posts
so use newest
@ retrocomputing @ a.gup.pe
#retrocomputing is also great
NOTE!
Searching "@ groupname" is good / works best but also creates the group if not already existing!

FreeSchool: Learn Respect Love
boosted
Debian recently voted to include firmware in the distro by default, including in standard installation media.
I wholeheartedly approve this decision, for reasons that I wrote in detail here: https://osboot.org/news/policy.html#problems-with-fsdg
The context on that page is osboot. This graphic explains it:
@skells LONG-WINDED EDUCATION vs. ALL THE WARS
If education is the overall winner and memes help that, then yes it's the long hard painful work as I see it from the obvious historically incremented bad work others have done. (So there isn't much instant way out or 1 shot kill for any war - it's for the people to see and slowly undo each of the bad things that encroached and weakens us, almost like leaning a tree back straighter, which unfortunately was the for-profit tree or only-with-profit tree that we are up against and born into)
If education and people realising
= better mentality of people...
then actually memes or similar work might do it... I don't see people reading books / making time to talk it out and actually these images and tips are making stark contrasts that people can see plainly (so a different medium to being told or written endlessly like my writing)
So this is 1 next-best thing down the line of many things that are not perfect and in the face of existing template.
The war is somewhat internal.
- How people see each other
- How think they can value each other and their children as numbers with bad people managing / middle-people / banks in the middle siphoning off our energy / body work all the time
Hope that answers the why meme can help solve wars and decreasing people paying for them almost blind is part of it.
Debian for the win!... Long-term less-for-profit growth and for the ❤️ end-game...
What Debian has done well is make it less purchasable - i.e. keeping it more for volunteers / non-profit which eventually keeps the best check for it's own progress and less elements monetary elements.
As a non-profit it's better calculated in the long-term "for the love of it" and non-corporate type of efforts.
Being bought and taken over happens constantly today - so no surprise when *yet again* something good then gets bought out / changes hands / new leaders / put to sleep etc.
Debian people can die happy they didn't sell out. Poor people tied to what they love rather than momentarily rich / bad exchanges with wrong people.
WHY IS THE "GO" GAME PICTURED IN THIS POST...?
The idea in the picture refers to the game "go" which often suddenly has your pieces flipped over and captured by the other person (the other team in this case which is the monetary team / governments / banks etc - "the dark" or uncaring side)...
Playing the money games would effectively turning your 'piece' of work and love into a "dark" one day inevitably as time goes on and it gets bought or sold or more involved financially at risk etc (it's all risky business money and in the hands of wrong-minded people).
The Go game is the analogy later down the line as you see all your pieces get flipped to the opposite colour and hard work captured... even worse locked off (this is the kinda of default for the Matrix we live in and want more sharing of instead).
OTHER EXAMPLES?
Perhaps like RedHat which is now under IBM but that also lasted a while without so not the worst example-
IRC servers who got replaced / admin rights removed / new staff put in...
Websites with pay-gates and all this stuff probably as a result of monetising it or feeling in and around it.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go_%28game%29
__________________________________
EXTENDED WRITING / OPTIONAL
Not "scaling up" using money is another way to see quality prevail and less toxic elements mixed in to decision making. The expectation without speed is that quality is maintained and the main focus, andeven slow cooking is better than hard and fast..
Speed via money (banks and companies, feelings from money by people) damages things and often crashes it knowingly (to get the tax or infrastructures bult only then for government to take over / regulate it).
So it's about keeping our monumental slow-progress ours and non-purchasable / less designed to be bought.
We know the banks and governments are cruel / financially based.
And ❤️Debian❤️ is not!

P.S
Although I somewhat don't find it natural investing electronically (I'm more nature orientated perhaps) AS ALTERNATIVE IT MAKES SENSE if you have to invest in something away from banks (which has always been the case for me as they are immoral / financial-only people).
Discussion welcome but based on the above 'worse vs worst' scenario we're in. Banks being the worst even if it 'seems' to have been working (NOPE has only dug the debt and % holes further!)

IMAGINE 'YOUR' MONEY IS ' FROZEN ' IN THE BANK!
(The bank says "Due to extraordinary circumstances we take XYZ measures")
YOU MIGHT NEED TO TAKE YOUR MOOLA NOW OR SE IT DISAPPEAR LATER!
We've seen how governments AND banks can confiscate / seize / impound / FREEZE money... and even eat it completely!
❗⚠️ Under the mattress is not the best way ‼️ 🛏️
🚫 ⛔ In the bank is also getting less secure 🏦 🏧
Money and it's debt was always insecure (artificial scarcity) so IF government and banks get nervous they will hold back money and even eat customer money as we saw in Greece.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_scarcity
I'm kinda glad to see this as visually it doesn't make sense to rob you're own bank but technically when banks take care of themselves before customers robbing your own bank makes complete sense. Do read your terms and conditions! :)

@living8bit@mastodon.social
I'm with you, but also what's the context which is rhetorical somewhat (so say if you want) because I think there is the rest of the email and well this does seem written close together, but you can assume IF you got it by email the habit is to REPLY by email... so clicking reply or reply might be the same (seems here there is 2 ways and breaking out of the normal email way)....
anyway this shows yes people are untrained but also making it idiot proof and not being too clever in design helps (though may not automate things). And of course email in general + TL;DR generations all need expecting- I'd personally make sure some videos or training-like material / banners or something were made JUST for this... and even then experts are bad like rms who said he has lots of emails despite replying to many and I told him look just audio chat once for 10 / 20mins and we can avoid all this 20emails both ways and any misunderstanding... of course he replied to the email but not to my solution or to say why not
humans ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
you have to double-down and make 300% sure for everything / everyone without making it technologically unbearable and even pander to people existing ways (like not reading and get it across in another way).
again, got no idea of context for this! (context is another thing in communication also!) but if it's just to call people stupid and not help you solve it even 1% then fine... so be it! :D
'Kinda of' all comes back to how we can't do things off other people's back who are anyway known to be this way (and profit-driven let's say) and always leveraging something to get us to invest also in tech or another geography's +/-'s in order to get an edge which eventually people . and tech discovers:
"omg we're beeing killing this and didn't evyer realise)... is bad in the long term term end game we are constantly learning later...
Kinda of like (Europe) piping / routing ***everything** through America despite their egregious laws and previous 'efforts' with whistler growler... still feels like people are going for the candy like: 'oooh I can upgrade for double ramm for $8 is something.... just bad leverage in the end.

@RTP Without reading (probably making a fool of myself) I'm going to guess the main reason or faulty points to be needing to

- still having some of the traffic detectable through VPN ?

@benjancewicz
I don't want to say I found that entertaining but yes maybe something along those lines of interesting, full of churchy mystery and even detailed notes and humour along the way.
I'm tempted to say Amen!
Ok jokey finish aside I mean it was well put together and I wish for people to talk a bit more outside of church or signup type situations - as I think everyone needs a good extended sit-down so even the situations that happen are clear - those it looks like the pastor wife probably could take back some very good feedback... though the science and his connection illness I'm not sure is exactly the same thing (or could be interpreted in many ways) still anyway it's too far to say that about science even though modern day stuff is quite dubious but not ignorable (again many way to interpret 'science' here or the mentality of other men not God word?). Would need a sit down just to clear those minor parts I'm sure prop up some of these words.
Thanks overall. The pictures along the way made me smile ^_^
MASTODON TIP:
TURN ON NOTIFICATIONS EVERY TIME YOU FOLLOW
THEN you will soon see if the person is for you (and whatever line of thought you followed for in the first place)
THEN TURN OFF NOTIFICATIONS
AND FEEL OK TO FORGET THEM / LEAVE THEM AS FOLLOWED PERSON IN YOUR HOME TIMELINE BUT NOT NOTIFIED!
Here's how to add notification:
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/109031885713138221
I'm going through my whole list and turning notifications on (wish sometimes I had done that at the time of follow!)
It's about changing / opening our minds...
I give people time and I thnk that's the difference to others online who really don't have or give time and give up on people really easy... (don't mean to be competitive, no put-downs, just I more dedicate time to others and weave us together).
So you don't even have to read any of this because EVERYTHING needs time + communication and without that a lot is broken and even less human even if it's for good...
Just follow and put notifications on to TEST MY FEED.... the rest below is just over-info for most poeple.

I encourage you warmly to participate with me as a I have time and then spiral out naturally to others (we are part of humanity and so naturally a sort of evangelism or ecological pyramid of life as we choose to spread lesser suffering while accepting consuming is part of it).
Less-commercial in orientation (in everything) and happy to think / work for free.
Naturally you will hesitate if someone is sure of themself or ok standing on shoulders what we copy do the best from humbly but not too sterile either.
Based on just emotions ruins almost everything, which seems very common - very ungraceful - so don't disconnect... do it gracefully at least!
A "school" of thought is here you can interact / ask and make best together as free/low cost as possible.
Even a bad answer you can take best from (of course I won't know all your situation when I suggest something but I don't need to answer 100% - you also need to help me!).
Leave perfectionism, we are all imperfect humans! Let's do it... Choose something ANYTHING and keep the thoughts rolling together...!
