My #FridayReflection
Should we be importing traditions from other social spaces? For example #FollowFriday.
I'd suggest this approach needs to pivot somehow as #Mastadon is designed to minimise flocking behaviour and a guru culture.
Ideas, represented by hashtags are valued here. We are participating in a #KnowledgeNetwork. It is knowledge, ideas, innovations, viewpoints etc that we should share (and question) here.
So, I suggest #FollowFriday should pivot to sharing and amplifying ideas not people.

For example 👇

Two concepts I've bumped into here are: #SmallWeb

And,
The #SmallThings manifesto:

I'm questioning how these novel ways of thinking might impact #education

#Follow and #amplify what #intrigues you and have a great weekend. 👍

Russian rapes in the Ukraine? (https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/russia-ukraine-rape-1.6661735)
Anyone who knows what happened in Berlin 1945 when the Russians took the city won't be surprised. Watch "Berlin 1945" on BC's #KnowledgeNetwork

Rather than doing things like #FollowFriday should we pivot these sharing activities towards sharing ideas, thoughts...things you loved learning about. e.g here's a great idea about #Privacy (insert link)
Other platforms focussed on building a guru culture. Let's amplify the ideas that exist in this #KnowledgeNetwork #Fediverse
