I just bought 20 envelopes and stamps, and I'm packing them with 5x #Conversations_im, 5x #OMEMO, and 5x #XMPP stickers each.
Send me an email if you want one. Put 'Stickers' in the subject so I can filter. While supplies last, obviously. (Though I'm more limited on the stamps than the stickers.)
Edit: I’m out of envelopes.

Tip tot maatschappelijk nut van het algemeen...
Wacht je al (te) lang op het UWV die een beslissing moet nemen, bv. op je WIA aanvraag, doe dan een melding te laat beslissen. Staat een financiële vergoeding van maximaal €1400 tegenover.
Fluitje van een cent en een compensatie voor de onzekerheid van het lange wachten.

When I play projects from fellow indie game devs, the biggest thing that stands out to me as making a game feel "amateur" are the menus.
Default fonts and default rectangles are just very off-putting to me. I don't really need it to be fancy, just a little more than this is a default engine button.

"Every single empire in its official discourse has said that it is not like all the others, that its circumstances are special, that it has a mission to enlighten, civilize, bring order and democracy, and that it uses force only as a last resort. And, sadder still, there always is a chorus of willing intellectuals to say calming words about benign or altruistic empires, as if one shouldn't trust the evidence of one's eyes watching the destruction and the misery and death brought by the latest mission civilizatrice."

Improving accessibility in the Fediverse and the ATmosphere
thenexusofprivacy.net/improvin…
One way that fedi is really unique is that so many people take the time to put alt-text on their images -- so low-vision and blind people participate much more fully than on other social networks. That said, at least half the images on most instances don't have alt-text. And alt-text is only one of many aspects of accessibility -- while some fedi software works well for people using screenreaders and other assistive technology, there's still a lot of room for improvement. Meanwhile on Bluesky and the ATmosphere ... well let's just say there's even more room for improvement.
So, let's make things better!
As a first step, let's focus on gathering information -- resources, tips, known issues, suggestions for improvements, and best practices or sources of inspiration in other software. There are some specific questions in the replies (and a few examples of resources) but really anything accessibility-related is good. This is brainstorming, so It's fine if to suggest something that's not fully fleshed out!
Please share your perspectives here, or in this CryptPad form if you prefer.
I'll collect the responses and follow up with a post here, on the Nexus of Privacy newsletter , and on the #accessibility hashtag. I've already talked with a couple of development teams who are interested in finding out what they can do, and since user education is an important aspect as well there will be plenty of ways people who aren't developers can help too!
And if you're interested in helping out on this project, please let me know! (1/N) 🧵

Improving accessibility in the fediverse and the ATmosphere
One wonderful feature of many of the communities in the fediverse is that so many many people take the time to put alt-text on their images – so low-vision and blind people can participate much more fully than on other social networks.Jon (The Nexus Of Privacy)

Here's a few examples of accessibility resources to start things out (bearing in mind that I am not an accessibility expert!):
- For Mastodon, @WeirdWriter's Mastodon for writers/readers and Sarah Higley's (somewhat older, so not necessarily up-to-date) An oversimplified guide to setting up Mastodon are two good getting-started resources written with an accessibility focus. @FediTips page on How do I use Mastodon through a screen reader has links to several other useful resources, including Mona tutorials and a Spanish-language guide to using NVDA with Mastodon, and Accessibility resources for Mastodon and compatible software has a few more links.
Are there similar pages for other software, or other pages for Mastodon?
- Suggestions on how to write good alt-text from the American Federation for the Blind, WebAIM, Harvard's Digital Accessibility page are hopefully useful for everybody -- and so are the best practices near the end of Emoji and Low Vision, from Perkins school for the Blind.
- For developers,. testers, and content writers, @wai (the W3C Web Accessibility Initiative) and @webaim have a lot of resources. WAVE Web Accessibility Evaluation Tools and WebAIM's contrast checker are useful free tools to help check different aspects of accessibility. Keep in mind that these don't substitute for manual testing, or usability testing with people with disabilities! Still, they're very helpful at finding some glaring (and typically easy to fix) problems.
What do people think of these resources, and are there others you'd recomment?
