@bestforbritain Sounds good, are you up for advocating smaller tech, e.g what we have here, a move away from big tech towards a more ethical model e.g free and open source software. ?
@zleap Hi Paul, absolutely - one of our core principles is the use of technology for good. A lot of which demands the technology itself to be built on a more ethical model. That said, a lot of our online work requires reaching the most people we possibly can, to promote voter registration or draw attention to dangerous legislation. So: delighted to be here, will support this kind of tech as much as we can, but must be pragmatic about use of other sites too for now!
I agree, I am on Twitter but less and less) too, and this is very useful for promoting alternatives.
