Digital Literacy workshop: Alternative messaging apps
by Digital Literacy Group - Mellemfolkeligt Samvirke Aarhus
In this workshop, we discuss and demonstrate alternatives to messaging apps like Whatsapp and Messenger.
Join this workshop, whether to get your first Signal contacts (we coordinate our group there) or explore good arguments and tactics to convince your friends and family to move to better online tools together with you.
Where: Mellemfolkeligt Samvirke Aarhus, The Commons
🌐 About the Digital Literacy Group 🌐
Why we formed: We often rely on digital spaces - for quickly mobilising around the world, for finding new people and groups, for finding events, coordinating, sharing, etc.
In this work, many of us would love to stop supporting unsafe and exploitative platforms like Facebook, but don't see a way forward when we act alone...
Goal: Let's fight surveillance capitalist spaces on the internet! Together, we can reimagine and build better digital ecosystems for ourselves and our fellow activists
How: Sharing knowledge between us in the group and holding collaborative learning workshops. For example, supporting each other in migrating to safer digital spaces and tools.
On 22 July, we will do a similar workshop again, diving into blogging and content-sharing alternatives (Facebook and Instagram vs Mastodon and Pixelfed for example)
