I hope they will fork MuseScore too. I really don’t like the direction in which that company is going…
I was born some time ago near a farm.
In Llammersville.
My mother called me Llams.
I was confused.
I am still confused.

Muslims aren’t the ones banning abortion and targeting gay people with oppressive laws in my country.
As someone who was born and currently lives under an Islamic dictatorship that has totally ruined my life, let me tell you that they will, once they are confident that they have control (or, in some cases, even as soon as they achieve a local majority.).
Relevant article from the Guardian:
‘A sense of betrayal’: liberal dismay as Muslim-led US city bans Pride flags
Many liberals celebrated when Hamtramck, Michigan, elected a Muslim-majority council in 2015 but a vote to exclude LGBTQ+ flags from city property has soured relations
You cannot find a single Islam-ruled country where women’s rights are respected, let alone Gay rights and trans rights.
Iraq bans the word “homosexual” on all media platforms and offers an alternative
Malaysia bans Swatch watches celebrating LGBTQ rights
Iran doubles down on abortion and contraception restrictions
Also, you might remember the things that happened in Qatar during the 2022 World Cup…
There are endless examples. These are just very recent.
Islam in the government will be as right-wing as Christianity in the government. I can’t understand for the life of me, why the fellow progressives/leftists in the west seem to support Islam this much. Maybe it’s a position of spite against far right Christians, but please know that Islam is not our friend either. Islam is a right-wing, oppressive, fascistic religion, and will burn any hardly achieved right for anyone non-male, non-straight, non-Muslim.
It is not bigotry to try to keep something seriously threatening our equality and rights away from the government.
P.s. I’m sorry if this post reads a bit angry, and I admit I am a bit frustrated of all this shit. Also, all this does in no way mean that I hate Muslim people and support abusing and discriminating against them in the society.
Xitter -pronounced “shitter”.
I use FreeTube, which is opensource and allows you to subscribe to channels without an account. The awesome thing is that you can categorize channels under different “profiles”.
However, I think it won’t take too long for Google to paywall YouTube APIs and do what it can to prevent web scraping (through disabling login-less use or attempts such as the one linked in this thread.). So our best option would be to ask our favorite Youtubers to move (or duplicate) their videos to other platforms such a peertube, and start using those platforms ourselves.
That is the only solution to all this!
To everyone: Please remove at least as much Google products/services as you can from your life. Start with the easiest ones. Have a plan and gradually find alternatives for all other products/services of them. Remove them from your life. It will help even if you do this partly. This is for the benefit of us all.
Also, let’s do the same to Microsoft, Apple, Meta, Reddit etc. Let’s not let our lives depend on them. They are corporations. They are programmed to maximize profit.
I know there’s currently not a lot of good alternatives out there, but if enough of us ditch these ass-companies, more and more open-source, decentralized, not-for-benefit services will pop up, and the existing ones will improve greatly. These are not for-profit projects that can be bought by corporations later and used to their benefit. They will only benefit their users.
Let’s do this!
Fuck megacorporations!
wow too, much video
