Christopher Sturm nennt den Zölibat als Grund ...Nicole Höfle (Stuttgarter Zeitung)
„Ein notwendiger Schritt aus der Abhängigkeit von den Tech-Giganten wäre die Grundsatzentscheidung, kein weiteres Geld für Formate auszugeben, die nur auf den großen Social-Media-Plattformen laufen – und nicht (mehr) für Reichweite oder Werbung auf Instagram & Co. zu bezahlen.“

So: The linguistic practices of cows!
they're *complex*
for one thing, they're *slow* -- "when a mother calls to her calf, it sometimes takes 60 seconds for the calf to respond"
some researchers argue that the communications of cows might be more complex than that of whales

Maybe we're wrong but for the moment they're not interoperable.
But the new European DMA regulation requires platforms to be interoperable. Meta and Apple are obliged now to open up their apps to communicate with smaller rival apps such as Signal. Apps using XMPP may be allowed to communicate with other apps in the future, although this seems to pose some security risks.
Some information about the requirement for interoperability between messengers:

The EU Digital Markets Act’s Interoperability Rule Addresses An Important Need, But Raises Difficult Security Problems for Encrypted Messaging
The European Union’s Digital Markets Act (DMA) allows new messaging services to demand interoperability (the ability to exchange messages) from the internet's largest messaging services (like WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, and iMessage).Electronic Frontier Foundation
@jerkface And I'm definitely not in favour of interoperability for a lot of things.
If I don't want to be on WhatsApp, Messenger, Threads, or whatever, why would I want my Signal messages to end up there?

Success of peacekeeping forces¹ in Ukraine hinges on deterrence
“The mere presence of peacekeeping troops on the ground in Ukraine, potentially near a contested border, would not be enough to deter the Kremlin. A more robust force is necessary. Ukraine and its allies can only guard against potential Russian aggression if the Kremlin fears the consequences of launching another attack,” writes James Rogers of the Council on Geostrategy in his op-ed.

. Google Plus habe ich mir gleich nicht angetan. Ich war lange auf Facebook, aufgrund meiner Ukraineaktivitäten war es einfach ein gutes Mittel, um in Kontakt zu bleiben. Ist es immer noch, ich kann noch nicht drauf verzichten. Nutze es aber nur noch mit dem FB.Purity Plugin, ohne das ist es gar nicht mehr auszuhalten.Dieter Fröhling likes this.

in reply to Philipp Greifenstein • • •Ich habe die Sehnsucht, unsere Kirchen (auf allen Ebenen!) könnten sich auch im digitalen Bereich derart an die Spitze einer Bewegung stellen, wie sie es vor Jahrzehnten bereits in der Entwicklungspolitik und im Fairen Handel gemacht haben. Damit hat man auch damals die Welt ja nicht gleich gerettet, aber man hat Entwicklungen hin zu einer besseren Welt angestoßen und mitgetragen. #FediKirche
