open event (no registration needed)
The Internet and commercial social media have stopped being a safe space for FLINTA*
people a long time ago (if they ever been), but before deleting all your social once and for
all, let’s try something else! This workshop is an introduction to the fediverse universe and
more specifically to mastodon -a free and open-source software platform for decentralized
social networking. Additionally we gonna talk about local data centers and the importance
of non-commercial and collaborative digital tools (FLOSS) which promote anonymity and
autonomy in internet.
