@saila Thank you! I look forward to that read. 😊

I'm in the unfortunate position "life happens." My wife will be leaving soon to be with her adult daughter, so we are preparing. I'm also spending time together with her while her adult son is visiting with us for American Thanksgiving. Otherwise I'd have spent the time necessary to seriously chew on the document. I don't think the presentation (grammar, spelling, tone) is as serious a matter as the process behind it. I plan to cover the "dressing," to me that's easy stuff.

"Does this make sense in this context? Will it *REALLY* help? Can we *SUSTAIN* this?"

That's really the burden before presentation, and I wish I could devote the time necessary. But "life happens."

#Minecraft involves SO MUCH yak shaving!

True, but we are hunting for a fortress in the Nether, so SOMETHING with gold is a given. :(

Time with my friends and close family on Minecraft is just golden!

See my response earlier as not all who participate one way or another are necessarily acting in good faith at the moment of public rollout. "Best foot forward" is only fair to the ideas of the document to be publicly released and discussed.

@freemo

@ejg

1) First, was this sufficiently proofread so people don't totally freak out about a word of place and use it as a quote forever as "true intentions?"

2) Are there unnecessary and superfluous embellishments that could and must be trimmed to concisely and succinctly make the intended idea come across?

3) Are the fundamental ideas really sound? Is this really going to solve the problem, or just move the issue around for a while? Is this really workable in the opinion of interested parties who have had to actually deal with social systems for a while? Is this idea as "tight" as it can be made?

For the purpose of expediency to present something that offers better and doesn't look like a half eaten chicken sandwich offered to a vegetarian, a few days of eyeballs on it privately won't harms the larger public discussion of it. It isn't being done in secret and it isn't skulldugery to be dropped without discussion or consent unlike the actions it is trying to address.

So yeah... It'll be public, just give people a chance to scrape the ugly off before it's presented.

@freemo @trinsec @barefootstache @obi @Pat The notes feature really isn't that obvious on the website, I've no idea if it's in all the various apps. I'm confident you only see it on profiles approached from your native instance, not at all if you view the profile from THEIR home instance which is as often the case.

Growing pains.

@dissolve @lijn @mattl Exactly how I append server backups, only I will throw in an alpha sequence. If I get to "z", it's a seriously bad day for backups. 😱

@Wopu @Pat @freemo @obi

How many high profile people quoting such a response from a "nobody" do you think it will take to get most people still on the birdsite to presume Mastodon is just full of arrogant assholes and isn't worth the bother?
