All of the pre-recorded talks for #apconf2020 are available now at: https://conf.tube/accounts/apconf/video-channels

If you're registered for the live portions of the conference next weekend (October 2-5) hopefully you'll have some time to check the videos out in advance! If you're attending the conference asynchronously feel free to watch the videos and leave questions in the video comments on on here using the #apconf2020 so we can incorporate them into the Q&A sessions!

WHEW! That was a lot of videos for #apconf2020 and @mlemweb and I watched all of them and I can tell you in advance: THESE ARE SOME GREAT TALKS!

@mlemweb and I kept turning to each other and saying "How did we get talks that are *this good*? This is incredible!"

We pay to Steam, Netflix, Amazon prime, Spotify. But not to Wikipedia, Archive.org, Librivox, Project Gutenberg, for our favourite Linux distro.

The huge asymmetry between corporate and community has not emerged naturally. It is a product of our choices of not supporting community oriented projects.

The short conveniences vs the long-term good. We always chose the former.

In face of surveillance capitalism, we must and must change.

1) If something is "national", you need to specify it is the _American_ national thing. Other countries have their own national things.
2) If talking about states, you need to specify it is _American_ states. Other countries have their own states, and they don't care or know about yours.
3) Same for "the government", unless you are talking about all governments in general.
4) The majority of countries in the world are "other countries" and not the US.

When climate deniers hit you with that “wind turbines kill millions of birds” bad-faith argument you can show them this chart

Google removed K-9 Mail from the Play store with zero notice because the description of the app included alternate spellings of the app name we'd included to work around how bad Play's search is.
