@nus I would struggle to describe that as thoughtful, no disrespect. I agree with a lot of what it is saying but I am the choir being preached to.

Nothing wrong with ye olde thirst traps, but the Walls of their Garden keep _you_ in but not the black hats out and that's quite the deal breaker for me.

Plus, I'm done with centralised media. dropped that essay and I think this is the potential future here.

Absolutely beautiful essay by the always-on-point on the rise and fall and rise of social media, and how we can hold each other up through it all:

@catvalente so helping people rebuild their networks is hard and their's no machine algorithm and no easy way to find people. E.g. if I was interested in the writer or or even then I'd have _no_ way of finding their profile without a # leading there which is a shame because not everyone is going to Google en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cather when a name sounds familiar and the profile is blank and catherynnemvalente.com/ doesn't have a tag.
