Looking SpaceFox's question for people who have been in special ed, it seems pretty like its a pretty negative experience. So, I'd like to know what Lemmy users have seen work well for people who need extra help in school? What haven't you seen but think would be helpful?

"The first order he signed before a crowd at the Capital One Arena revoked approximately 80 executive actions that had been signed by former President Joe Biden. He also signed a freeze on new regulations, as well as a hiring freeze on federal workers. And Trump also withdrew — again — from the Paris climate treaty."

List of revoked Biden executive orders here:

https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/initial-rescissions-of-harmful-executive-orders-and-actions/

It's worth noting, that Biden only issued 160 orders, by revoking 80 of them, Trump has reduced that by 1/2.

Looks like the usual, DEI, climate crisis, covid restrictions, ethics.

Credits go to @kmh for creating this style. It comes in both a light and dark version (check the links for usage instructions).

If you don't want to fiddle with code and stuff, ~~loma.ml has already installed it server-wide~~*, and should be available straight away for new accounts (If not, go to Settings>Display>General Theme Settings and change it from there. Or follow the guide in any of the links above).

Edit: loma seems to require invites. But, while in german, joinfriendica.de allows you to join without an invite. It also has quite a bunch of add-ons too like bluesky, tumblr, ifttt, markdown, langfilter (filters the languages in posts/comments) and curweather (shows the current weather).

Hi, community :)

Long time no see. It's been some challenging weeks.

There are some new updates for Postiz, but just a small recap:

Postiz is a social media scheduling tool supporting 17 social media channels:

Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Reddit, LinkedIn, X, Threads, BlueSky, Mastodon, YouTube, Pinterest, Dribbble, Slack, Discord, Warpcast, Lemmy and Telegram.

https://github.com/gitroomhq/postiz-app

Here are the latest updates :)

  • We added a stand-alone Instagram provider that doesn't require you to have Facebook business.
  • Added Lemmy :)
  • We have added short-linking. By default, it uses DUB, but we have added a nice infrastructure to easily create new providers (currently working on Bitly and short.io). When you add links, once you schedule the post, it asks if you want to shorten them.
  • I added a Telegram provider, which was really challenging because the way you add a Telegram bot is a bit different.
  • A big step into web3 - Postiz now supports scheduling to Warpcast using Neynar.
  • We also added a web3 login with Farcaster.

Of course, everything available in the open source :)

Future:

  • I started to get more into web3 and am thinking of adding Nostr also.
  • Default hashtags and signatures to platforms.
  • Post templates to write faster.
  • WordPress integration.
  • Digest - sometimes people schedule like 10 posts at once, and get 10 emails.

Funny enough, Postiz got a lot of cancellations because of the TikTok ban (bummer.)

Let me know what else I should add to the roadmap.

Summary

Impeached South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol denied ordering military action to block lawmakers from voting against his martial law decree during his first appearance at the Constitutional Court.

Yoon’s declaration of martial law on Dec. 3, citing opposition obstruction, plunged the nation into turmoil. Lawmakers unanimously rejected the decree, leading to Yoon's impeachment.

Military commanders contradicted Yoon, alleging he ordered physical removal of lawmakers.

Yoon faces investigations for rebellion, risking life imprisonment or the death penalty.

His actions have strained South Korea’s democracy and global image, fueling domestic divisions.

Even if the EU Commission holds the line, and laws like the DSA, DMA and GDPR start to push large online platforms into introducing tangible improvements, the core of the problem is hardly solved: Corporations like Meta, X and Tiktok have too much power. This power puts our entire public debate and even electoral campaigns at risk, as they depend on the goodwill of a small handful of Silicon Valley billionaires. This power also extends to our public infrastructure, access to essential services, and core functions of our States in ways that may soon become irreversible.

That’s why there has never been a more fitting moment for the EU and its member states to start seriously addressing our dependency on Big Tech and invest in real alternative models and services, including investing in Europe’s sovereign digital commons. The EU and member states should build up independent public funding mechanisms, like the EU’s Next Generation Internet programme but bigger, to support the development of sovereign free1 and open source software that can contribute to the resilience of our public digital infrastructure.

These public funds should be subject to conditionality, and not be spent on “AI hyperscalers” or “lighting-fast growing unicorns” that eventually reproduce exploitative business models and further consolidate the economic and political power of large tech corporations. Instead, they must be reserved for open digital infrastructure, software, hardware and standards, similar to what the NLnet Foundation and the Sovereign Tech Agency are already doing on a smaller scale.

This includes the core internet infrastructure that is mostly invisible to users, but could also be extended to projects like an open search index that can be used by innovative, more ethical search engines without having to rely on Google’s or Bing’s indexes, or an open browser engine that can be used by browser makers without being dependent on Google’s Blink engine. In order to address the threats outlined in this article, we also need substantial investment into non-commercial, decentralised public interest social media software like Mastodon, Peertube and other key pieces of the Fediverse.

With the US moving further away from its democratic path, Europe must show leadership to build a better digital future for people, democracy and the planet now.

Public trust in scientists is vital. It can help us with personal decisions on matters like health and provide evidence-based policymaking to assist governments with crises such as the COVID pandemic or climate change.
