On another note, it is wild that atomicpoet.org – a small server that’s entirely self-funded by me – will outlive mozilla.social.
I know people think that servers run by corporations are “stable” and “safe”, but it’s simply not true.
Are we on the brink of a new elitism in science?
With fraud rapidly increasing, researchers will increasingly distrust results from institutions and researchers they haven't heard of, thinking that those they know are more trustworthy, despite the occasional Gino, Ariely, or Tessier-Lavigne.
This is one reason I have argued that all institutions should take steps to create an evidence/data chain-of-custody system. chronicle.com/article/how-to-s…

This opens up a whole bunch of possibilities!

If you care about the #Fediverse being a better place, consider donating, too. Their work on Trust & Safety for the Fediverse is unmatched and so important.

(Software piracy in the Haredi sector in Israel, at least as of the early 2000s, is extremely high even by Israeli standards; there was an entire "you shall not steal" campaign trying to educate that public about software piracy.)
