something I have had hammered into me by working in software for the past fifteen years is that it's impossible to overstate how important a smooth and intuitive user experience is
most people want things to Just Work, the second you put any tech barrier up you lose 90% of users

Not a competition, buuuuuut: "On Saturday, Mastodon founder and CEO Eugen Rochko said the service had seen 4,200 signups from Brazil"
Bluesky continues to soar, adding 2M more new users in a matter of days

Computer scientist: if you imagine the cup 90° turned its state can be described as the binary number 10... Until physics kicks in, then it's approaching 0 rather quickly. We could write a program to simulate this!

It’s free speech.
It’s not free-from-consequences speech.
So, if your speech incites violence, racial hatred, arson, pogroms… there will and must be consequences.
That’s not an affront to democracy. That is democracy. And the law.
Rather than mob rule and fascism.

What if #hateful people just tell everyone that #love is the answer because it makes us week?
#Hate empowers you, before it eats away your soul and everything you ever loved! But at least you're strong for a moment ;D

#Showerthought: #Death is the #ultimate #communist... think about it, he treats everyone equally.
Not talking about the way there, the moment death himself shows up, any life ends, no matter how rich and powerful you've been.
There is no bargaining, no buying out. Puts things into perspective.

It's up to you whether you see change as an #opportunity or as a #threat... either way, change comes. It always has, it always will.
