#ActivityPub supports Groups. I'm wondering if anyone has developed something like a mailing list for AP yet?

Gonna take the whole "Don't scab on prime day" moment to promote one of my favourite alternatives to an amazon product.
The Movie Database is a free community-run alternative to IMDB, unlike amazon's shitty website, TMDB isn't full to bursting with ads, trackers and sluggish JavaScript, and provides an excellent platform for folk to catalogue information about their favorite films without being marketed to.
Please support it, not just on prime day, but any time you need info on a film. Keep information free.

A lesson on why chasing advertising dollars in podcasting is an overall losing affair.
First (very tentative) release of the Uncannonical S-Expression Parser for Python. I need to do a bunch of stuff before this is ready for PyPy.
This is a draft of what I'll hopefully be submitting to Rebooting Web of Trust. If anyone would like to take a look, constructive feedback welcome:
2600 has once again shown that it has fortitude in the face of adversity in creating a new website showing the addresses of US concentration camps:
Their first issue has US White House Phone numbers, and in the 90s, they published the DeCSS source code.
Respect.
I posted a copy of the D&D episode we did on @librelounge to reddit's r/rpg and it was well received.
I posted the same thing to r/dnd and it was immediately downvoted.
Makes me wonder....
