agx was already taken on fosstodon so with a #ruhri background I'll move my #fediverse presence to https://ruhr.social/deck/@agx . Hope to see you there.
I'll set up the account move as well in a couple of days but as that has a 30d cooling off period let's see if things work out over there.
for the service #libremone !
Has anyone else had difficulty with #AccountMigration from @purism's #LibremOne to #SocialCoop (@SocialCoop)? When I try to create an #AccountAlias it says my old account handle could not be found. Anyone able to advise please? Many thanks
Wow! I just realized that #LibremOne is actually running a fork of Mastodon called "Smilodon".
I think what's a bit more surprising is that, if you go to its GitLab page, you'll see that there hasn't been a single commit since about 2 years ago.
@purism How does #libremOne grow since the recent boom of #Mastodon? Can you share any stats?
EDIT: Already done, but thanks for the boost :D
Can someone with connections to @purism@librem.one help me get my old librem one Mastodon account deleted? There's no option to delete your account in that mastodon fork.
Much thanks

#PleaseBoost, thanks. 
I have to say that I am a little disappointed with #LibremOne. It was once supposed to be a unified ecosystem of privacy-oriented services but now I feel it has fallen into obscurity and a general lack of maintenance.
Although it has been my gateway into the #Fediverse and #Matrix, I think it's now time for me to move on. I really hope @purism would be able to sort out the issues with this service because I honestly think it's a brilliant idea.
@purism@social.librem.one - Product Idea
Bundle your hardware with a set of #FIDO2/#U2F compatible keys, and preconfigure the OS to encrypt the machine on first boot with the keys.
During the setup process, use it as a tutorial on how to use the keys for setting up #LibremOne services, teaching new users how the keys work, and why #privacy and #encryption is so important.
@edgren I'm sure the likes of the #pinephone and #pinephonepro or the #libremone are further along feature wise, my #oneplus6 is unofficial support hacked together by the community
@mab @sotolf @danjones000 @fosstodon @graphonymous @kev @mike
#LibremOne's #LibremSocial has removed the local and federated timeline. I don't know why they thought it would be a good idea but it feels pretty isolated
Here's an #experiment:
As #LibremOne's #Mastodon instance #LibremSocial has no local and no federated timeline I guess almost nobody is reading my toots (followers only, I guess)
If you read this please vote
Feel free to elaborate how you found this, it's getting lonely over here...
Apparently Purism enjoys trying out new stuff. Not that I mind, but we've been monitoring their "librem.one" services for a few months now. It seems that the software behind this SaaS offer is rather unmaintained.
Their Mastodon fork hasn't seen a commit in almost(?) a year, and their synapse server is stuck on 1.23.1, which has at least 4 known CVEs.
At least their VPN seems to get some updates from time to time.

I'm going to say something controversial but is what I truly believe, I sure hope the social media platform doesn't sensor me for it!!! Oh wait, they won't. Man I love open platforms like Mastodon!!! Freedom of speech is vital to freedom period. 
Don’t quit Facebook. Change laws.
What to do if you think Facebook worsens misinformation and hate speech.
Facebook Has Been a Disaster for the World. How much longer are we going to allow its platform to foment hatred and undermine democracy?
