In my future, I am most worried about my life at 18, 19, and 20, and i am afraid that capitalism will prevent me from carrying on beyond the age of 21. If I can even live to see 25, i am afraid of the high risk of extinction that our systems are creating. However, even under heavy capitalist pressure, i am temporarily able to resist the most obvious forms of capitalist influence. Such actions include posting onto ethical platforms under ActivityPub and the Fediverse domain, even if the connection is not inherently obvious at first.
Actions of Resistance
Even though I pledge to avoid proprietary software as much as reasonably possible, I unfortunately must post to proprietary services relatively frequently in my best efforts to gain a mainstream following. For instance, I have multiple YouTube channels, my primary one being at https://www.youtube.com/@novaTopFlex, providing information on various free and open-source topics, particularly in the software domain.
However, I continue to maintain my position as a free software and an open-source software advocate together, and even my online presence calls out the claim, “we need a mass proliferation of open-source software.” I prioritize my access to Mastodon and Lemmy in particular, though I would accept traditional IRC (especially Libera.chat) over such a proprietary service as Discord. In addition to my aforementioned position, I aspire to become one of the editors of Permacomputing, at least on the side of my activities.
