@ozeng @760ceb3b9c0ba4872cadf3ce35a7a4 I definitely think that it's unsustainable to chase growth but there definitely needs to be more than just 45 year old white dudes that work in IT on here (obviously I'm exaggerating here but that's the biggest demographic). in order to do that then you have to make it easier for new people to both join and understand how the fediverse works, welcome them, and address the issues that a lot of people face (like the "my instance's admin got mad at the admin of the instance that my friend is on and now I can't talk to them" dilemma).

I think communities tend to naturally find each other on larger platforms despite having millions of users, but normalizing tags (not excessively!) like tumblr does would massively help too

pretty sure a lot of the things that I've said have been just me being frustrated over feeling like people had an expectations of me that made me uncomfortable and that I'm also a people pleaser so I felt like I Had To. I think I'm slowly mellowing out now

that being said that specific kind of furry TF still makes me uncomfortable and I'm not going to follow people that put it on my feed un-CWed or send it to me without asking. it's happened way too many times

@gabu on one hand I think that letting your account be separate from the websites that you use with it is a really good idea and we should adopt it too. on the other hand, bluesky leadership

@gray I admittedly don't listen to as much rap as I should (blame my inability to understand anything unless I really focus on it) but out of the artists that I'm familiar with, del is really good

I watched a vinesauce vinny commercial chaos stream from 3 months ago and finished with thoughts like "audi paid someone to animate a commercial where a car gives birth"

as if microsoft teams couldn't get any worse they've been cramming it full of AI nonsense. what the hell is "facilitator" and why is it pinging me asking for an agenda for a meeting that I'm not in
