Really good article on how things are at the moment.

Hm.

Hmmm. Not sure what to think about this, the sample rate seems awfully low.

Oh.

Thumbs up

Jesus Christ, what is wrong with these people

This is probably the best headline of the month

That doesn't make the bicycle guy look particularly good.

It's a bit sad but yes. Sure, there's Mastodon but even there it doesn't just feel the same.

This is interesting. I didn't expect POSSE explained on The Verge in that much detail

This is quite strange

I'm not on threads (because Europe) but this is still highly amusing to me. I guess that's how religions start?

MetaFilter is such a weird website. I used to love it but that's quite a while in the past.

Good grief.

I feel this loss of community online every day.

Absolutely. I do miss the short time when people just used the things we now call social media for fun but maybe it is okay the way it is right now.

I guess it's performance art?
