Mastodon is great when I want to listen to people scold each other. Bluesky is for listening to people being performatively clever. I am not enjoying either of them.
Most people care nothing about the things I care deeply about. I’m feeling too old to try convincing them.
Suggesting that people start a blog instead of joining a new social media platform is a category error.
Typing my little takes here on the blog is better than doing it on the socials because here no one bothers to correct me. I don’t feel like arguing.
I canceled my membership at 500.social. I wasn’t using it enough, so it didn’t make it through my end-of-year subscription cutting exercise.
