marado<p>Here I am, writting this simple text, and there you are, reading it. There is something quasi-magical in the simplicity of this remote and asyncronous communication, how easy it is for someone, somehow, to write a toot that someone, somehow will be able to read. But for me the real magic is in those two keywords and the variety they represent: the someone, the somehow. You can read this, it does not matter where or how I wrote it. And you, the reader, can be anywere in the world, you can be reading this on a desktop computer, or a tablet, a phone, a wristwatch, via e-mail or RSS, on a fediverse client or maybe a twtxt one. It does not matter if you are my neighbor or across the world, rich or poor, no one needs to know your gender, your height, how many cookies you ate today.</p><p>All of this, this quasi-magical simplicity, is possile because we use Open Standards. And today I welcome you to join me in celebrating them, and with you a happy <a href="https://ciberlandia.pt/tags/DocumentFreedomDay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DocumentFreedomDay</span></a> !</p><p><a href="https://ciberlandia.pt/tags/DFD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DFD</span></a> <a href="https://ciberlandia.pt/tags/DFD2025" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DFD2025</span></a> <a href="https://ciberlandia.pt/tags/DocumentFreedomDay2025" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DocumentFreedomDay2025</span></a></p>
