What is meant by 'active' users ?
According to
https://mastodon.org.uk/about
There are 982 users of which 129 are active, which is 13%

@paulsutton This may be of interest to anyone following @sdtj and @dcglug

@paulsutton This looks really useful, so need to find a host for a SnapAs instance now. :)

@ourdiaspora
Further to the previous reply, thanks for these links and pointers, mastodon.org,uk will be useful and MIT unhangouts looks interesting too.

@ourdiaspora

Good point

I am in the process of making people aware of alternatives.

I also want to run my own online stuff if possible using free tools, e.g bigbluebutton for example.

I am also directing people to here.

I am working on a presentation for mastodon on Overleaf

@schestowitz and with 40,000 deaths the UK accounts for 10% of that, and the USA , with 100,000 25% so two of the 5 richest countries in the world account for 35% of deaths.

Anyone up for exploring how people could run a similar event to this, again using Free tools but one that is open to ALL ages regardless of age, gender, race, etc.

In the name of equality.

This gets worse-

How can charities and community organisations build effective and safe online communities?

Event hosted on 'zoom' and one of the communities is on Facebook

So how can we counter this, and put some ideas together using free tools, and federated communities to achieve the same thing. ?

@paulsutton To @devrandom and others who are undertaking online learning you're doing great, keep up the good work.

@freemo hmm are you thinking planes here or would this also work on space flight ?

@cybeardjm Thanks for this I was looking to share this here.

166 MPs out of 650 uk mps have signed a letter to ban the export of rubber bullets and other equipment to the US until an investigation is carried out.

Can we assume those that didn't sign this don't care or are ok with this kit being mis-used against people.

More police violence, I am not sure where the original source file is so this is on twitter. The UK government and opposition(s) remain silent or seem to.
