🆕 @w3c has launched the Sustainable Web #InterestGroup to create guidelines and best practices for addressing #sustainability challenges in digital technology affecting both people and the planet.

Drawing from the SustyWeb #CommunityGroup’s work, the group will release the Web Sustainability Guidelines (WSG) 1.0, designed for end-users, tool developers, educators, and policymakers.

Wikimedia Deutschland @wikimediaDE is committed to free access to knowledge and education at all levels of society.

Regarding their value orientation, they say: "#participation, #diversity, free and open access, #justice, #sustainability and respectful collaboration - these #values are at the core of Wikimedia Deutschland."

In October last year, it became clear that X/Twitter no longer met these criteria: "After much deliberation, we decided to no longer communicate about the work of Wikimedia Deutschland on #X, formerly #Twitter."

A logical and responsible decision @wikimediaDE !
But not only that: since last week we also welcome @wikimediaDE to the group of supporting organizations of our action alliance.
Welcome @wikimediaDE !
We look forward to working with you to encourage the #universities for a better internet.

Wir verabschieden uns: X ist nicht mehr das, was Twitter mal war - Wikimedia Deutschland Blog

Nach langem Überlegen haben wir uns dazu entschieden, nicht mehr über die Arbeit von Wikimedia Deutschland bei X, früher Twitter, zu kommunizieren.

@wechange is a German-based #cooperative that contributes to the digital transformation towards more #sustainability: wechange.de/cms/?lang=en
Many individuals, organizations and communities are already taking advantage of their offers to use the internet for sharing and networking instead of "leaving it to a handful of data octopuses and software companies".

At the end of last week, @wechange decided to stop using #X/Twitter and instead rely entirely on #Mastodon in future - in line with our appeal to the #HRK.
