The Roosevelt Institute has released its report on the U.S. media crisis. Its key conclusion: "The crisis facing American journalism is the predictable outcome of decades of corporate libertarian media policy that prioritized commercial logics over democracy." Here's the full analysis.

Good morning Fedi friends!
Sorry I've been a little quiet around here but I just completed a labor intensive personal project: selecting the best of the year's photos, color-correcting them, laying them out, and ordering photo albums (my traditional Christmas present to family).
I typically have between 600 and 900 photos per month (1000+ in the summer), in between my smartphone and 3 professional cameras. It's a HUGE undertaking each year.
Nobody in my family prints out photos anymore, I feel like it's my responsibility to be the curator of family memories.
Parents and extended family members keep their photos on smartphones only, some locked inside messaging apps and not even downloaded to their photo albums.
Meanwhile, I spend two weeks a year curating photos and creating albums.
I love going through them with my little one and with family and friends.
The number one reason why I love photography so much is that a photo can freeze a moment in time and make it everlasting. Flipping through the pages of my photo albums is like going back in time... which is really bittersweet but also magical.
Maybe one day I'll write about my photo organization system... how to free oneself from the clutches of Big Tech platforms and reclaim power over photos and videos. (I say this because I have several friends and family members who won't quit Big Tech apps because they hold their photos).
YunoHost writeup first. And then maybe photo / video management tutorial in January.
Wishing you all a great day!
