* Matrix is an open source and potentially distributed chat protocol. The matrix room listed is hosted on matrix.org, a somewhat centralized hub for a lot of currently public rooms. Though the protocol itself is free, libre and open source, the deployment of the protocol resembles a centralized service. This may be fixed in the future with the deployment of independent servers.
* Be aware that both Telegram and Discord are centralized proprietary platforms and do not necessarily protect your rights nor privacy while simultaneously giving power to corporations.
Proper thing: No pride in genocide ✊.
I'm noticing lately that more of the most important news that I'm seeing reported in the Canadian press is coming from smaller outlets. It's both a credit to SaskToday's journalistic practice and disappointing on the part of larger and/or more local (to Ottawa) papers that SaskToday is the only outlet I found publishing this balanced story by the Canadian Press. The right-wing rag that is the NatPo titled their article on the issue, "Ottawa Pride loses key allies over anti-Israel stance" lol. I've also seen some great articles recently from GuelphToday, which seems to be part of another smaller news conglomerate that is not related to that of SaskToday.
