The more time I spend here the less tolerance I have for nonsense on the Internet. Algorithms seem really obvious in what they feed me, ads more obnoxious and the comment threads on the slightest of controversial subjects seems more toxic than ever. This is true not just on the birdsite which I left but FB and IG which I check every now and again. I'm visiting them less and less...
On the other hand I'm reading more actual blog and article content so this is a win.

@toddtyrtle I'd say the best parts of the internet on on RSS feeds -- whether it's text publishing or podcasts. Though sometimes I do want to chime in... so Mastodon is good for that.
@DecaturNature I'm going back a long ways so the excuse is a bit lame, but the end of Google Reader really threw my RSS mojo for a loop. Started rebuilding that just this week with Feedly which sends to Pocket which sends to my Kobo reader. So now I have mobile offline reading. Something I didn't even have with Google Reader.
