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...!

@akkana Good to say, and we all carry our our crosses and crosshairs, and good to say that it's more willingly done :) :thumbsup_hmn_g1:
PeerTube broken (for older browsers)- Keep it basic / Go back to basic sites!
PeerTube - Keep it basic / Go back to basics!
We need sites that are pure function covering as many old browsers as possible.
I'm using Mypal 68 which is not that bad and "old" shouldn't be used against surfers so often...
http://www.mypal-browser.org/download.html 32bit version....
Either it doesn't show videos or doesn't play. I think major changes hurt a lot more or expect people to keep up when clearly they are conscious or retro people more often then mainstream...
I think it would be great if I and others can really simple forever things... like you can still play an mp3 file...
Otherwise many people don't use Peertube - simple as that!!

@akkana Like the pictures, shame it's so much hassle to set things up - not sure I feel good even for great software and stuff but of course you love it too and is worth it to some level (no reverse psychology intended here)

@ohyran Yes... But I think that "Bugs are inevitable with complex software like Krita and should be reported on bugs.kde.org. Please attach the relevant logs (you can find them in the help menu). Make sure you correctly and succinctly describe how the issue can be reproduced." might actually be more infuriating to this person, so that's what I sent...
@halla Bless gran and survivors. I feel like I'm surviving now from my own choices that I can hardly change now from 'high' morals... probably no way back but well needed for real change... go the survivors! ✊

@freeschool For that, there's an excellent episode from the BBC radio show In Our Time.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0010f8z
It was a European Republic, a federation consisting of many different nations and cultures, languages and religions. Stretching all the way from the Baltic to almost the Black Sea. They elected Kings and generally did quite well for several centuries.
Giving opportunity to others to give to you- by not giving in...
Giving opportunity to others to give to you- by not giving in...
By not giving in, or keeping more what is ideal. you allow others to try provide for you what was is usually taken away (choice or paying more than understanding) or replaced artificially (computers) and you find another way (a test for yourself too to live the way you want or looking for - though I don't mean dump computers always or live in the jungle- pick and choose)
It will always be a bit left and right trial and error and can reach a bit of a breaking point but done slowly (talking) and managed slowly (if possible) I think people and yourself can see you're no just being problematic and actually help / be more sympathetic since you're spending time on it with then.
To get people seeing you're not being manipulative or sucking from people, you're just trying to living more naturally / humanly
And even bending the tree of justice back towards centre by balancing personally the cold system designed by 'who knows who?' and 'way back when?' !)
@davoloid Great stuff and just few key points that resound are:
- exclusion of other aspects of recorded history
- Authoritarian states weaponise this narrative frequently: the UK and the USA
- Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. That was a remarkable democratic institution which is not so well known.
The above last one I'd like to know more how it was a "remarkable democratic institution"
(but don't t expect you to do more, just is interesting from a new-to-me stand-point)
Thanks for that. Did Help!

Lawmakers urge Biden administration to ban TikTok parent company by Julia Shapero (The Hill news)-
02/09/24
The icon is for the video sharing TikTok app as seen on a smartphone,
Feb. 28, 2023, in Marple Township, Pa. TikTok has restricted one tool researchers use to analyze popular videos, a move that follows a barrage of criticism directed at the social media platform about content related to the Israel-Hamas war and a study that questioned whether the company was suppressing topics that don’t align with the interests of the Chinese government. (AP Photo/Matt Slocum, File)
More than a dozen lawmakers called on the Department of Commerce on Thursday to add ByteDance, the Beijing-based parent company of TikTok, to its export control list in order to “address critical vulnerabilities created by the company’s access to U.S. software.”
The group, led by Reps. Dan Crenshaw (R-Texas) and Josh Gottheimer (D-N.J.), expressed concerns about the security of U.S. user data on TikTok, as well as the relationship between ByteDance and the Chinese government.
“TikTok provides the [Chinese Communist Party] with the ability to weaponize the platform by suppressing, magnifying, and otherwise constructing narratives to target specific audiences abroad,” the lawmakers said in a letter to Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo.
“Applications from ByteDance are an accessory to the soft power and propaganda of the CCP, and we must mitigate the role of software access in facilitating this capability,” they added.
The lawmakers urged Raimondo to add ByteDance to the Bureau of Industry Security’s Entity List. The export of goods, software and technology to companies on the list are restricted.
“This step would be instrumental in applying licensing restrictions to the export of software from the U.S. to ByteDance for its applications,” they said.
“If American users are not able to upgrade their app with software updates, which involves the export of U.S. software, then the operability of the applications of concern will be weakened,” the lawmakers added.
TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew, who appeared before Congress last week alongside four other tech CEOs to testify about children’s safety online, emphasized that TikTok has not shared user data with the Chinese government.
He also pointed to the social media company’s initiative known as Project Texas, which aims to wall off U.S. user data from the rest of the company.
However, lawmakers have expressed doubts about Project Texas, particularly after the Wall Street Journal reported last week that employees have sometimes been directed to share data with other parts of TikTok and ByteDance.
“Not only does this letter misrepresent the facts and the law, it also ignores the industry leading work we’ve done to safeguard protected U.S. user data,” a TikTok spokesperson said in a statement. “We’ve engaged in good faith with Congress and relevant agencies through the [Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States] process for over four years and continue to do so.”

Thanks to THE LEFT & Pirates the Digital Markets/Services Act (DMA/DSA) will open up digital platforms and stop monopolistic behavior on digital markets, this means:
All social networks will become like the Fediverse (Interoperable) [1] 
There will be alternatives to the iOS App Store + Sideloading [2] 
You can chat with WhatsApp users from Signal or Matrix [3] 
Uninstall any pre-installed app or program on Windows, Android, iOS... (like Edge or Facebook) 
And much, much more [Further Reading]! We will have more third party clients, enforced interoperable and open web standards, a non-monopolistic market even on the internet, transparency about tracking and algorithms!
And most importantly: companies will be fined 10% - 20% of their annual turnover if uncompliant.
We always say “oh, it's the EU doing this” but no, the EU Commission and EU Parliament has many internal forces and struggles, and just like my work on the Supply Chain Act, the voices opposing such good and important legislation are overwhelmingly loud! Wins like these are rare and will become rarer if parties like THE LEFT and Pirates don't get re-elected in the upcoming EU election THIS YEAR! If you are an EU citizen at the age of 16 you can and should participate.
I wish all progressive forces a happy and successful election year! :bh_flag_progress_left:
"I'm here for you" (as much as you'll take me / us)...!
@BE I really like it! Well done!
And "I'm here for you" (as much as you'll take me / us.)
Quick other things:
█ Greenhouse YES (always been one of my great answer to linking all part of life to better human activity / investment)
█ Not sure about HomeAssistant stuff. You are the monitor here! Tech is a bit of a drag to setup and monitor itself and distraction for doing the work. So waste of your time possible here AND nothing works well nowadays lol... so you'll be kicking air soon enough and back to basics.
█ I wanted to say mainly I've been living basic / low-cost / low-footprint / ingeniously somewhat for years... so if you have silly low-level questions please ask (I'll have you on follow+notification and it will come up instantly!). Stuff lying around you don't know what to do with etc...

Compliment to FreeSchool... 1 just for symbolic gesture to myself outwardly...
I usually work with direct messages for more personal message so it's not always said publicly, so here's a public compliment just to have one out there... and there have been deeper over the years but still one for the memory :)
" I do like your mission overall: education is always good and we need more ways of delivering it, both to as many people as possible (millions to billions), and, for as cheaply per student as possible -- imo"
- synlogic @synlogic
FreeSchool appreciats the compliment 😃
And it's nice when someone says it well ! Being a cheap teacher or always available I think is a real tactic to basically doing what people could almost do themselves and with a bit of courage or even the wrong answer get them going and even witness their life for them!...
ℹ️ I've been doing the one-by-one / p2p / 1-to-many approach for years, for those that can trust a bit and really want to get there to the other side of things... we're all wonderful 🌠
Intelligence grown outwards from middle class? (if you and me are kinda middle class?)...
Sometimes I feel like I'm over-trying to get the attention of the bourgeoisie, but I really don't what else or who else will help win this war from middle outwards to the upper class and lower class almost like a regrowth of bacteria injected in the middle... (mostly intelligence growth from financial Petri dish)
So the lower class can't do much but work / sleep and upper class won't want to give up power...
but middle class / comfy bourgeoisie (who are terribly nice people) are also a mixture of both /sometimes/ 🤕
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...
