@crtl-alt-reclaimfr.bsky.social started out as a small bootcamp in Summer'24 - bringing together young people from around Europe who wanted to do something about the harm that social media was doing to young lives. Now itβs a pan-European movement, see Guardian:

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.Β
Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?
I'm this month's guest writer in The Logging Club newsletter, discussing the yearning I have for the children to be able to log into child-centric spaces online. So much fun working with @adelewalton.bsky.social - whose book you should read if you have not!!

YouTube says it banned Andrew Tate. So why is his face still all over their platform?
