I decided to record my first impressions using @penpot a free software design and prototyping tool.
I was really impressed! I did not expect the level of functionality and polished user experience it has.
@eff is planing an online session on "Online Censorship Beyond Trump and Parler" on February 3. Don't miss it.

But I would like to invite EFF to revise their social media activities. #Mastodon is missing. G+ is gone.
Just 6 days until @fosdem 2021 (💯 online via @matrix) ... boost if you're "going" this weekend!
