#lgbtqia Timeline

A huge blocklist of manually curated sites (1000+) that contain AI generated content, for the purposes of cleaning image search engines (Google Search, DuckDuckGo, and Bing) with uBlock Origin or uBlacklist.

There's something really lovely at the top of the uBlock Origin filter list, just under the description, that brought us a small bit of very-much-needed joy, and we wanted to share it here with others 🫶

! HAPPY PRIDE MONTH

! Please support authentic artists! Whether it be commissions or donations, an amount of any size helps!

! I love you.
! You are valid.
! LGBTQ+ Rights!
! Keep your chin up--we will get through this together <33
! Have a happy day!

I am donating a custom mini portrait for a fundraiser silent auction in support of ODLAN.ca that if you bid enough, might get you a custom commission painting at a great price. (Not this piece shown but same size).
Bids start at $130 Canadian, and bidding opens on Feb 20 & closes on the 28th.

I've used the #Fediverse, mostly #Mastodon for over 8 years. Should #AgeVerification come to .social that will end my time here. Should Age Verification come to most other large instances, that will end my time on the Fediverse as it will no longer be a place that is safe or sane for #LGBTQIA folks, especially us #Transgender folks living in many places where governments are actively restricting our rights.

Network Health: Redefine what it means to be safe on Mastodon

Everyone on today’s internet is directly exposed to regulations like GDPR, the Digital Services Act (DSA), the Digital Markets Act (DMA), and lately numerous age verification (or assurance) laws and related social media bans for minors. We will perform a regulatory audit to ensure full legal compliance of our own servers, and explore how this knowledge can be shared with the community. We are also forming an interdisciplinary age-verification working group, to help us navigate the complex nature of these international laws. Simultaneously, the team will draft and publish new community guidelines and moderation policies for the servers we operate. Additionally, we are updating the terms of service (we ran a community consultation on this in October 2025) and privacy policy for our own servers.
