Dus dankzij "feminist" JK Rowling heeft het Britse Hooggerechtshof besloten dat transgender vrouwen niet bestaan, en geen bescherming verdienen tegen discriminatie zoals ieder ander.
Deze afgrijselijke uitspraak zet de tijd 20 jaar terug, en dat TERFS het vieren als overwinning van feminisme is 🤢🤮
Het afnemen van mensenrechten, het creëren van uitzonderingen, het creëren van groepen waarvoor die mensenrechten niet gelden, is niet alleen onmenselijk en antifeministisch, het tast bovendien ieders mensenrecht aan.
God, als JK Voldemort dood is zullen we dansen op haar graf.

Fucking hell. Ook advocatenkantoor op Amsterdamse Zuidas geeft toe aan Trump.
Samenwerken met een fascist, gratis zelfs. Samenwerken met een fascist die mensen laat ontvoeren en naar een concentratiekamp in El Salvador stuurt, omdat je een paar dollar extra winst denkt te kunnen maken.

Our chat.trom.tf (Matrix/Synapse) has become very difficult to manage - growing database, not an easy way to prevent bots from registering, or others from abusing our service.
For now we have closed the registrations and only accept them via requests. We have 460 users but we are thinking to perhaps shut down the entire service this year.
Too much work considering anyone can make trade-free accounts with matrix.org or other providers....
We will keep everyone informed about our future plans.

I understand. I hope they can add encryption to the chats...but on the other hand if anyone gains access to our server and is able to read that "text file" in the backend, we are screwed anyway since we host a lot of services on or trom.tf. Including Friendica which is not encrypted....
So yes, I do prefer an encrypted chat, but things must be put into perspective. Our Nextcloud instance at trom.tf already provides encrypted files/folders for all users, so at least we have that.
