FOSDEM centralises seminar chats on US tech giant Cloudflare (even decentralisation-focused tracks!). (slrpnk.net)

Every talk on the fosdem.org website has links to matrix.to. Even if your own Matrix account is properly CF-independent, the rest of the crowd who you correspond with is not. You cannot isolate yourself from Cloudflare and also participate in FOSDEM rooms.

Such a fucking embarrassment. Cloudflare is not even a sponsor.

Software (“Akoopa”) to browse the web on torrents -- one of my dreams may become reality (fosdem.org)

FOSDEM presenter Jah Kosha will pitch the idea that the web can be made inclusive by introducing some middleware called #akoopa to share websites using torrents. This is severely needed. I cannot even read legal statutes that I am bound by because the gov publishes law on exclusive websites.

It’s similar to my youtube-torrent idea:

Software to re-decentralize the web by building a modular browser (will be at FOSDEM) (fosdem.org)

Not my idea.. I just saw this on the FOSDEM schedule. Seems like a great idea.

GUI web browsers are too fucking monolithic. This has enabled just 3 big corporations to dominate everyone’s web experience worldwide. The presenter (David Thompson) makes the reasonable claim that giant browsers block liberation and shrink competition. But if we break the browser up in to many small pieces, we have a fighting chance at liberation from web oppressors.
