Apparently there’s another influx of new folks here, so I guess I should give my best tidbit of advice:
You have to really actively seek out people to follow here, much more than you’re used to — and until you do, this place will feel •dead•. Cool stuff isn’t just going to show up. You won’t get many helpful suggestions. No tech giant marketing dept is spending millions to draw you in. It’s going to be •work•. It’s kind of a drag, tbh.
But: your people are out there!! You just have work to seek them out, one account at a time.
People are almost the same everywhere... Have more money than sense etc... even the anti-people... Civilisation build on crap and people can't let go of it to build themselves and others.. so they support Fascism / Capitalism instead...
@inthehands Have to be honest that is good advice, but also you find people are almost same-same everywhere... they just like short writing... and fascist (uncaring / money-based) but in a different department (fascists is an offending but really people don't care much to change).
So what I mean for those that cn read, is that people are ignoring a lot of life, so they aren't fascist in one way or totally (even though believing in Government hierachy and banks IS FASCISM) but they ignore people and then they love tech (kind of not Musk but all roads lead...),
People are not fascist but believe in money and don't see banks or numbers as bad, STEM thinks STEM is ok without seeing people, acknoledging there is such things as negative math spirals, and can't see Tech or anything as political (bad owners while using nicer-looking 'green' material). People are not using moral mind and still in material word.... list goes on. And it's true it ALL checkmates yourself but this IS THE WORK TO BE BASHING THROUGH. Especially if the #Left or #Liberal also turn out to be quite a lot believing in fascistic component.
And as a meta-perspective people can only deal with short text so already lost by this paragraph... better to stay short / fascist / old world ignorant people than to explain all this and agree on parts / build a better future... (from beginning to the end)
IT'S ALL ONE WAY MOSTLY as " social " even on Mastodon.
No software aims to put actual people doing the social (more just develop the software)- #Mastodon included)... Where are they pushing people to meet and build (for non-code?)
Sounds like I'm knocking things - I'm not - just social people don't exist.
Just show me ...
or let us two do it and grow some social here more than a few long thread mostly about Tech and frankly bourgeoisie converations...
it's futile, fleeting and crushing here like a needle in a haystack that my account shows (I had also accounts before this similar).
A lot of time people just get blocked by those they see as a hero or whatever just for writing a lot.
IT'S MOSTLY ALL ONE WAY - maybe I'm not into fooling people WHILE you can get nice comments and some social back. But it's in between the rest of like and crap news taking over instead of positive vehicles of constant chat and social people pushing that.
You be the change, I'm here.
Not many more.
#FreeSchool is for real.
