- Comment on Cable can't compete with 5G home internet, so it's cheating 10 months ago:
Alternatively, it’s possible cell companies like T-Mobile will lobby against these anticompetitive agreements, since it does reduce their number of potential customers. I don’t like cell company lobbying any more than ISP lobbying, but in this case, let them fight.
Something tells me T-Mobile’s got a little too much class solidarity to have any interest in reducing the profits of Charter Communications.

Thanks for the well-written explanation, stranger.

Who knew a company with an unhealthy obsession with harvesting every screen tap of data from every person using their services… would chicken out from connecting their servers to a bunch of clients they couldn’t monitor.
- Comment on There's a few new communities over at literature.cafe from classic books, writing prompts, some new poetry communities, and even a percy jackson community! 1 year ago:
Duly noted. I’ve subscribed to the writing prompts community.

Oh! You could call yourselves
- "the slight right" or
- "right lite"

I don’t know. The name feels weird. I could see calling your community,
- “moderates”
- “moderategop”
- “RINOs” (just like Trump’s supporters embraced calling themselves “deplorables”)
- PS RINOs also gives a good logo idea
- Comment on From a networking perspective, does the Fediverse strike anyone else as "optimistic"? 1 year ago:
I recently started a Kbin account and noticed that a few of the communities I searched:
- were empty, and
- had, in their info, the claim that they had started right when I searched them.
Which tells me that the Kbin instance only stores local information about a community after the first of its members searches that community.

Wonderful. Thank you South Samurai. I’ll do just that.

This is one hell of a write up, stranger. Thank you!
Mastodon and calckey have the most active writing communities imo.
It is very difficult to search for something when you don’t know it exists. Now that I know Mastodon and calckey have a vibrant writing community that you recommend, I know there’s some value to finding it and learning how to immerse my account in that community. Much appreciated.
I think the best route is a lemmy or kbin author account combined with mastodon. Instances rarely matter in terms of where you join, so long as it’s a fairly stable and not heavily defederated/defederating one.
You even gave a recommended route!? Seriously, you have my gratitude. This is awesome.
By “combined with mastodon” do you mean to create one new account at lemmy or kbin and one at mastodon? Or do you mean to create one new account at lemmy or kbin and use it to connect with the writing communities at mastodon?

Thank you kindly. I feel like this answer supplements Samurai’s answer really well and gives a solid illustration of their point when they said,
I’ve looked over the other options, and they’re pretty meh tbh, for a writer in specific.
