How has everyone been doing lately? Just checking up on the fediverse? Anything positive to let the world know? Is there anything hopeful we can share with the world to drive away the constant barrage of disappointment and doom?

i officially consider the first screenshot as my first real "toot" on , marking when I officially began using the in place of the as my main proving grounds

however, the second one is one i am still proud of and really was my first post ever here

regardless, i it's damn cool it has been 142 days since my last and the last time i was angry on social media

i still believe you have to work to be enraged here. and that's why this place fucking rules.

is the soother and we are the soothed.

Woo-wee I for 3 minutes and I just want to climb into a hole and die. If you feel like the world is just the same and is setting in, holy hell get out of that.

Looks like conflicts in the societal milieu have caught up to my TL here. This is good, makes the other place even less useful to folks on the fence, but I might have to employ some selective muting/filtering even of like-minded folks to avoid the nighttime doomscroll.

Employing blinders? Head in the sand? Look, I know what's up; if I let it beat me down I'm no use to anyone.

Ugh.

I just went over to check out and post once this week to keep my account "active."

The amount of horseshit over there is truly breathtaking. Fuck.

They've also fucked up the timelines: you can see "for you" or "following", not chronologically-ordered "latest tweets".

I'm still in mourning for the community that I lost - but HOLEE SHITBALLS.

Nasty. It's a giant throbbing .

Une conférence de juillet dernier (en anglais) sur l'état du protocole 4 ans après son lancement.

Pas d'algorithme, ça "calme le jeu", mais cela rend aussi les fils d'actu Mastodon plus "plats" que sur Twitter (?).

Oui mais cela encourage à participer, à créer du contenu... au lieu de passer des heures à réagir aux polémiques du moment (le "").

I'm trying not to by replacing one obsession with another . I've now joined , , , and . The good news is I'll have the username PatrickStewart down before the actor nabs it (yes, it's my real name). The bad news is that now I have like 4 social networks to .

@Cirein_Croin that's fair enough!

I want different home time lines above and beyond the local and federated ones. I haven't managed to get lists working the way I want. Ideally filters that move posts rather than hide them everywhere. worthy content goes in one list. Conspiracy stuff goes in another keeping my home nice and fresh. I still want to dip into doom every now and then 😉

I don't say this enough. Any tool you use to communicate your research is just that, a tool. One that you pick up and use, just like MS Word for docs, Twitter/Mastodon for dissemination. if you wish, but ask why you are doing that when the tool has another use.
