i got sick again so the financial update and also this thread are late. i’ll get the financial update up at a later point, or i might just combine it with january since there’s not that much to report as far as i can tell

    are you on one of the big mastodon instances? i have .social and .online silenced because they’re really too big to be moderated properly.

      I’m on fosstodon! It might be related to what I’m interested to but I noticed people are pretty judgemental of everything and there’s this weird tendency of talking like they are superior because of how well informed they are? I don’t know how to explain but I was kind of sold to the idea that these platforms would be more positive and maybe my expectations were too high

        the foss crowd can be very “i know better than you” in my experience (a femme-presenting person in tech). i started a geographically local instance because that was what i missed most about that sort of social media: finding out about stuff that was happening nearby.

        what kinds of things are you looking for on mastodon? there are also lots of hobby-related instances with overlapping foss interests that tend to be more chill from what i’ve seen.
