If you have a bit to spare, a real nice lady who shares videos from Uganda is fundraising for a gravity water system to stop villagers from having to carry water on a path through the mountains which has become unsafe. They've almost got the funding they need. (The story text provided is CW: sexual assault).

Tech industry, please hire more writers. I can happily read docs for 3h and get much more out of them than watching a video for 3h. And while I'm watching the video, I'm making copious notes so that I don't have to watch the video *again* later to refresh my memory. If it was written down in the first place with good indexing I wouldn't have to do that. Video is such a crap way to document things.
