Felt so RIGHT doing the stream using Owncast :)

Huge thanks to @gabek et al. for this valuable (first?) example of a Small Web app.

💕

PS. Our live stream showed zero viewers throughout. Sorry about that! (You do count, really you do!) It looks like it was a bug with Site.js not proxying Owncast’s WebSocket connection properly. Going to look into it tomorrow.

Thank you to all of you who tuned in to watch Small Is Beautiful today. And thank you for your feedback, it will help us to improve our setup (and might already have pointed to a bug in Site.js that I need to fix) :)

On a personal note, I’d really appreciate it if you could tune in today at 5PM Irish time to Small Is Beautiful and let us know how the stream is for you (quality, buffering, etc.) as we’re moving to Owncast and your feedback will help us tweak the settings if necessary :)

Dear Silicon Valley,

Slavers couldn’t imagine a future where they didn’t own and sell people either.

A user is what you sell to your customers.

Hungary passes law banning LGBT content in schools or kids’ TV

Hungary is still an EU country.

(This is just about human rights after all, it’s not like they threatened the Single Market or anything.)
