Gander: The Social Media You Want, Built in Canada
Fun, private, and ethical. We're changing the way social media is done around here, all without your personal data taking an unexpected trip down south.

I have a few invites to @gandersocial.ca. Be aware, it's still beta & phone app only at this time. Built on AT Protocol, it can see Bluesky posts and you can resend them on your Gander feed. Looking for folks to post, share, comment, etc. to work the system.
Just FYI there’s an account on here called @redditspaceviewes.bsky.social (with over 200k followers) that is posting a bunch of AI slop (including a “Saturn polar hexagon” with 8 sides) and claiming it’s NASA imagery. If you see anything posted by them, it’s likely fake.
Watching the Artemis II mission generated the same wonder that Apollo did so many years ago. So many generations in-between then and now missed out on that feeling. Maybe that helps explain the current state of the world.
Helping beta-test @gandersocial.bsky.social Anyone I know also there? hmu, same @ handle

Good read. “Enter Premier Doug Ford and Attorney General Doug Downey with a new bail bill that will not fix bail, reduce crime, or make anyone safer. Instead, Ford and Downey are serving Ontarians a double-double of unconstitutionality.“ #onpoli www.canadianlawyermag.com/news/opinion...
Ford and Downey’s bail proposal gives freedom to the rich and cages the poor
Their soundbite-driven policy is a mask to hide their failures to ensure community safety

Yes, and let's keep it that way!

today is a good day to ask yourself how much you actually support the independent artists and creators you enjoy, beyond just liking and subscribing. do you pay them money for their work? do you buy their things? fund alternative culture now or be left with the slop.
Ben Collins@bencollins.bsky.social · 11mo agoThere’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for people to build on the rubble of what’s being destroyed before our eyes. Private corporations bending over to forcefeed everyone government-approved speech is evil and amoral, but more than anything this creates boring, inauthentic, unwatchable shit.
Below you can find the statement of Dr. Piotr M. A. Cywiński, the director of the Auschwitz Memorial and Museum, on the comment made by Grzegorz Braun, a member of the European Parliament.
We all agree that we’re using “clanker” as a slur for the robots right? Like Grok is a fucking clanker.
Change my mind: "Disruptive" is code for "exploitative". If you can't afford to pay the creators/workers who fuel your profits and valuations, then your company was never viable. It's exploitation and not democratisation.
Danielle Smith and her MAGA minions (Postmedia pundits I see you you) aren't responding to a wave of secessionist indignation. She is deliberately undermining our country in the face an unprecedented predatory threat. #ratpolitics101 #traitor #vichyorvimy

Dear Democrats + American "friends" Even when your president says it is "unlikely" that he will use military force against our country it still worthy of a resounding response. Right? But we hear crickets. You might be okay with the end of the rule of law. Not us. www.ctvnews.ca/world/articl...

There’s been so much interest in from US 🇺🇸health workers and jobs in Canada that I’m posting recruitment links for all 10 provinces and 3 territories: 🧵 #healthcarejobs🇨🇦

On the streets of Brussels I encountered numerous little plaques in front of doorways. They commemorate the Jewish families who were taken from their homes and murdered by Nazis. Never forget no matter how many lies Elon Musk tells.
Bandcamp lets us keep 85% of revenue. That is the best rate of anybody out there. Over a period of about 15 years, I have taken home ~$3000. Every album is "pay what you want", so you all rock. If you bought an album for $5 then you gave me more than streaming the whole album ~300 times.
