#Jortage — after Stripe shitcanned my account due to them no longer allowing donations on their platform (my account was in good standing, as it has been for years), all recurring donations are gone. Currently, we're receiving $340.47/mo out of the $340.47/mo we need to break even!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is an citizens initiative for achieving a ban on all LGBTQ+ targeted conversion therapy practices across all member states of the European Union. However for this initiative to progress, there is a requirement for **1 million** signatures in order for the commission bring it before the EU parliament for debate. The collection period for signatures ends 17 May 2025.
To support a European Citizen's Initiative, you need to meet the following criteria:
- You need to be an EU national
- You must be old enough to vote in European Parliament elections (18 in most countries but some lowered the age to 16 for ECIs as shown in the following: https://citizens-initiative.europa.eu/data-requirements_en
If you have any other questions, they might get answered in the FAQ at https://citizens-initiative.europa.eu/how-it-works/faq_en#Giving-support

UPDATE!
I have a solid lead … thanks for all the help!
Hey, Mastodon … I’m trying to track down an #AppleNewton developer named Stephen D. Cronin.
He worked at #AMD and operated a software company called TapTech based out of Austin, Texas in the late 90s. I’ve managed to contact his former software partner, Francis Preve … but Francis lost touch with Stephen years ago.
Together they released a sequencer program for #NewtonOS called NR404 and I’m hoping the source code still exists somewhere.
so uh
when the Maddie thing happened, LTT actually did follow up with an investigation
….by hiring a labor law firm, somehow concluding “no evidence“ and “not substantiated“ claims, posting these statements on their X™®© account without presenting anything to back it, and then threatening with a defamation suit
I don't even recall seeing many people complaining about it except the usual "they changed a thing I don't like that"
