I plan to stay and see how things shake out, but I'm also on Mastadon if you want to find me there.

> Ultimately, if we reduce “alternative social media” to be solely large, right-wing alternative media (…) we get a false dichotomy where the extent and diversity of the types of media available is greatly reduced.
> The result is we miss out on innovations in platform governance that both go beyond the corporate model and actually do a very good job at marginalizing hate speech and undermining surveillance capitalism.
Great read, focusing on #fediverse!

Okay, so... I have a bit of an announcement.
I've created a website for FediFollows which has all the accounts I've ever recommended (that are still working!) organised into nice topics and tags:
You can browse the main directory or the top 100 tags page. (Also considering adding an "all tags" page, if there's demand.)
Please let me know what you think! Any feedback very welcome 🙏
(This is why I haven't posted in a few days! 😅 )

I tell myself stories. Like if someone isn't managing a 4-way stop properly, I think to myself, "Maybe she just came from a bad doctors appointment." If someone is rude in a grocery store, I think, "Maybe his wife has cancer." It helps me be more patient.
