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?

Estou tão cansada que vou ficar aqui a ver fotos e a boostar um bocado.
#zombie #doomscroll
i officially consider the first screenshot as my first real "toot" on #Mastodon, marking when I officially began using the #Fediverse in place of the #birdsite 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 #doomscroll 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.
#JohnMastodon is the soother and we are the soothed.

Woo-wee I #doomscroll 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 #nihilism 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 #Birdsite 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 #doomscroll .
I think I've started to #doomscroll. Time to put away #socialmedia and read a #book.

I need tea, stat. And a cuddle, and a stuffed animal, and a blanket. #halp
Une conférence de juillet dernier (en anglais) sur l'état du protocole #ActivityPub 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 "#doomscroll").
A New HOPE (2022): ActivityPub Four Years Later: The Good, the Bad, and the Fedi

I'm trying not to #FreakOut by replacing one obsession with another #obsession. I've now joined #mastodon, #pixelfed, #friendica, and #peertube. 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 #DoomScroll.
I'm excited to be on Friendica, thought. I do miss #Facebook Groups. Hopefully, I can find some great #groups to be involved in.

it seems that the #drama just circles around #fediblock.
if it's not part of your daily #doomscroll then you are missing out
@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. #DoomScroll 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 used to #doomscroll through #Twitter every morning. Instead, I now look at pictures of #cats on #Mastodon and feel much better for it. 😺

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. #Doomscroll if you wish, but ask why you are doing that when the tool has another use. #xp
@martinmeany This....is not what I feel. What I feel is relief, and the hope that the #Canadian federal government decides to follow the #journalists that have come over, AND to emulate the #EU #Mastodon #instance. I'm so done with the #doomscroll.
