Tumblr post about pi-hole which is some sort of thing that blocks all the ads in your house from the WiFi… or something. To read later.
Proof of life in Montana at -21° with a -43° wind chill, and I heard geese flying overhead. My car DID start. 🙂

Practicing carving in earnest. Testing out line work techniques I do with pen, and trying to translate to #linocut
I’m happy with it, it’s too busy and I need to practice the ink application more. But you can’t get better unless you start making stuff 🤷🏼♀️

So lately, I feel the Fediverse is a lot less "toxic" (e.g. no angry people attacking other people online).
Not sure if it's just me—perhaps my "following" habit—or is it something else.
If it's something else, then I have a guess:
the Fediverse actually has skin in the game to keep this place friendly.
Twitter, on the other hand, has a profit-motivated incentive to bring everyone on there, including the toxic people.
The Fediverse, however, is stretched financially thin.
Behave badly on the Fediverse, people leave, and servers shut down. No more Fediverse for other people; no more Fediverse for you. There are no extrinsic incentives on here.
It's all intrinsic motivation to just use the platform, and have it organically thrive.
Either that, or there is a much simpler explanation for why this place feels friendlier.
