I have moved to my own Mastodon instance and so far only my followers who are also on mastodon·social have been transferred automatically. An update of other instances will probably take some time, but if you want to shorten the process: https://social.marcus.io/@marcus

I'm also not a lawyer, of course. But I dove into the topic years ago maybe with masochistic motivation, but mainly to understand and teach in my course (which will soon be available in English, shameless plug)

In the advent of the #EAA, there are some explainers going around which have wrong info (and I don't blame the authors, we are all not lawyers and EU legislation is a beast):

- No, there is no transitional period for your websites until 2027
- No, the EAA (née Directive 2019/882) is not based on the Web Accessibility Directive (née Directive 2016/2102). The first is about a common EU market, the second one about the public sector of the EU member states.

It's not just another administration. But nearly everyone seems to be treating what's currently happening as such.

I get the urge towards escapism in form of culture, games, shows, sports and all - especially now, but everything that's currently coming out of the US leaves a stale aftertaste in my mouth. It somehow feels like not wanting to see the reconstruction into an authoritarian system because people don't want to be "political".

I'm of the opinion that biology will save us all from a complete term of #47. So that statement has come from a future US president (according to the rules of succession).

Dear Americans, you voted a guy into office whose Vice advises German politicians to work with the far right, because "will of the people" an so on.

I'm - again - sick to the core.

In short: just to remember what we learned in school (in history classes and others – ad nauseam here in Germany, but for good reasons!) is naïvitee, woke and hipster now.

Looking at 47's election and the current #Merz stuff here in Germany (based on the latest polls), it is obviously a sign of being in a woke big city bubble to NOT blame things on immigrants, to be aware of authoritarianism and fascists on the rise, to make other people aware that politicians use marginalizing or outright right-wing language and to view things differentiated in general 🤷‍♂️

I've decided to call the orange one just "47" and Elron Musk just "47b" (or Göbbels or Himmler).
