I'm dismayed every time I see content that I like being published on Substack. (Or any other big content platform to be honest. But Substack in particular.)

Just like Roy says: that's the kind of web that is actually interesting. Not the couple of big social media sites.

So much bullshit everywhere

Looks like they finally found the guy. Kudos to him!

I hardly ever open Bluesky but Jay Graber fascinates me

This is a very good conversation

An old article, but I have been thinking about that lately.

Yes, he is clearly right about all of this.

Thaipusam is probably the religious holiday that I understand the least and Douglas here has been invited by a Malaysian Indian family to join them and be right in the middle of it.

Hm. I see where he's coming from and I think I agree. But I need to think about it a bit more.

John and Merlin talk about something that has been bothering me, too - it's hard to find your tribe online these days because randos aren't fun potential friends anymore.

Yes, sure. Some of the world is quite nice, though.

Ah, yes. Lovely headline.

Minchin is such an interesting person. I went ahead and ordered the book immediately.

A nice companion piece to the "modernity is stupid" article I bookmarked before.

the Internet’s business model is betrayal. Every mature social media platform has betrayed us. Every big search engine has betrayed us.

This one is pretty neat.

This triggers both the old Nu-Metal listener and the Atarashii Gakko fan in me. Great combination.

Really good article on how things are at the moment.

Hm.

Well, that's a bit of a bummer, isn't it?

Teymur ponders "The Best" and why we're so obsessed with it.

Oh, this is indeed nice. I haven't watched a YouTube premiere in quite a while so I didn't notice they added more options

Very good summary of the current state of the search for MH370

A good little overview about the weird clickbait thumbnails for MH370 videos. And he's right: you should watch the Mentour Pilot one, it is really well done.

It's all so strange

Thumbs up

Jesus Christ, what is wrong with these people

Money ruins everything

Oh wow. This is good.

These days its all meme accounts
