  Thanks 😄

  I’m stoked by the engagement; I initially found the question following some article posted on bluesky. Replying there resulted in crickets. I thought to ask here on a hunch, and it’s been wonderful to read all the responses.

  Back in the day people would claim that what was good about reddit was that it was a community. Well it’s not that anymore.

  This is pretty good though!

  This is just too sad.

  I’ve always thought it was a very modern horror story how sweets for children are made from gelatin, from animal death, basically.

  I still eat them though.

  I’m so inspired by the Fediverse, the social options we have these days are just magical.

  A decade ago, Diaspora got press because they were going to build an alternative to Facebook. But there was hype and then there was disappointment.

  Now, everybody knows how terrible legacy social media is. Everybody knows. Sure, most people are still stuck there. But these vibrant alternative places exist! The options are exciting! It is so much better than it’s ever been!

  Just keep building. This is great, and it’s only just started.
