resonating with the Feminist Server Manifesto(s).

Tools and Practices

Ansible and Tmux

Ansible

Writing our Infrastructure

Infrastructure is defined in code,
every server has a name,
but servers are reproducible, re-buildable.

Tmux

Sharing our Shells

No longer alone in the shell, but taking turns typing

Deciding against tools

We don’t like how they shape our way of collaborating.
We don’t want to support the organizations that provide them.
They are built on extractivism and exploitation.

It’s complicated

Nobody is surprised by that.

Collaborate

Let’s weave some knowledge together

Coming back together
