Devin Ulibarri on Social

Where can you connect to me (Devin Ulibarri) on social media?

I am often asked this question. Here is the short answer.

Mastodon, Gnu Social, LibreFM, and BuddyPress

Gnu Social — (Down as of January 2020) https://loadaverage.org/pikurasa

BuddyPress — Right here on this website. Visit my profile page (currently members-only) and activity feed (currently members-only). You can also subscribe to the feed via RSS (open to non-members).

What about Facebook and Twitter?

I manage a few pages on Facebook, such as the Sugar Labs page at https://www.facebook.com/SugarLabsforall/ and the M.A.P. Family Learning Center’s Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/MAPFamily/

As for Twitter, I never created a personal account, nor do I plan to I do, however, co-manage and monitor the MAP Family Learning Center Twitter feed at https://twitter.com/@MAP_learning and https://twitter.com/sugar_labs.

Because of the ways that they capitalize on people’s data and require people to give up important freedoms, I cannot recommend Facebook and Twitter.

Instead, I recommend you follow my work via the following Mastodon accounts:

• https://mastodon.social/@sugar_labs/
• https://mastodon.social/@mapflc
• https://mastodon.education/@musicblocks

More about BuddyPress on this site

I have set up this site to have its own social media capabilities. The following picture is a screenshot of features available only to members. You will gain instant access to private messaging, friend-ing, group creation, and member-only forums.

Certain activity on BuddyPress is public, but if you want to send private messages or create groups you must be a member first. Memberships start from as little as $5 and will give you complete access to BuddyPress on this site. There are no ads and, unlike Facebook, I do not deal in surveillance capitalism, but you do need to be aware that this site’s data is not yet on a dedicated server and is currently accessible to register4less.com.
