Hi... Looking for socialising on Fediverse?... (sorry it's not focusing on socialising and not enough to have a "social" platform without people actually focused on improving human socialising! Or do you think keeping distance is going to work for us?)...
" Oh hi there cloud!... "
(says the new user look for social or something better than local reality of life )
" I'm looking for people who
actually want to #socialise... "
#FreeSchool cloud responds honestly:
" Ah sorry to say...
No social focus on #Fediverse...
It's just one-way posting and same ill style short-ism or talking about Trump etc...
...instead of building our own
good (in ourselves here) and developing better people overall.
Not just developing #Tech. "
ADDED NOTES:
I can measure this on Fediverse from daily message attempt and how many non-replies (for various reasons but again NON-replies).
At best people like to just have good things said or nothing... people like #UBI4ME who for all nice intentions don't want to do long messages or multiple post replies answering things (they ask for engagement too in posts and videos!).
Most reply once or twise but fizzle at 2nd messages and can't handle answering let alone #discussion.
It's almost the same as the real world just without advertising. which is a great step but not enough as social itself
(it's not tech but people that need engineering too to do social better).
People looking for only "positives" just to serve their own aesthetics or nothing in reply is the current way.
Overall #unsocial people, that you might get anywhere (less offensive here to the point of not replying instead). Almost all into into #Tech - not people development.
So if you're trying to escape and save yourself from in real life from who can't communicate and ignorant tyranny then you're in the same boat here on the other side of the spectrum of ineffective social.
So you're realising while reading this that it's almost exactly the same reflection of real life with people unable / disabled / uncaring (dare I say) and not willing to put any skin on the line to develop themselves (which is really OUR selves) out of the very #paperbag they stay in or whatever they #complain about....
Staying victim or just inside Tech bubble as #developer is people's best while their own development #LAGS.
A reflection of reality perhaps or worse as faux-social / one-way version of two-way...
( i.e. it's not enough to just have a "social" platform with more people not focused on actually socialising / building something to get out of trump style people and just link together as best as possible)...

The UK Online Safety Act burdens small sites with duties and penalties that they can't shoulder. They'll shut down instead, stripping us of net plurality.
There’s a simple solution:
Exempt small, safely run blogs, forums and fedi instances
The government can do this now
The duties start TOMORROW – Write to your MP

@HistoPol Did it suffice, before?
That assessment in its stark, incredible naivete, shows you haven't yet grasped. THEY DO NOT CARE. They giggle at the indictments. They use it as grifting opportunities. Only REAL consequences, loss of personal liberty, freedom, privilege and property will grab their attention.
And the lower echelon of MAGAts have even less to lose, so they become the suicide bomber paradigm/problem.
Wake up.
#Fediverse ... Technically
Socially
TLDR is:
Fediverse should be more about developing people socially,
Not mostly all people developing #tech.
#Fediverse efforts... Technically

Same as #Twitter basically in many ways even if 'it is a different kind of #fascism and talk / watching known bad leader do more instead of try build anything / everything socially (creating new if needed) - so you / your work is all still inactive' / 'unsocial' in this way and not really building socially.
It's tech which eventually is over-done and just #code constantly overwritten or scrapped when tech forces next #wave.
Time to build our own thing (and everything can still exist but as more of a hobby or potential partnership WHILE we enjoy / listen to others more and basics of cohesion like practising people).
#TLDR: #developing people, not developing mostly tech things.

Scottish place names are full of ghosts. They describe fields that are no longer there, forests long felled. Gaelic carries the memory of people, land, and place. When languages disappear, so does a part of our history and the ways of thinking they represent.

SHORT sentences SHORT change meaning...
#SHORT #sentences...
SHORT change meaning
SHORT change situations
No wonder there is #war.
People can't do more than a few conversation sentences.
Short sentences are mostly #aesthetics and even #fake not daring even battle with words first and leaving war to stupid people.
YES THE PUBLIC ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR WAR, IF THEY CAN'T STRING 'LONG' PARAGRAPHS AND KEEP EMOTIONS...
SHORT = shallow... the bourgeois short sentences contribute to all this.
#Fediverse is FULL on the inactive #Caturday spectrum simply same opposite of spam. Ineffective, yes the cats are a bit better but not by much.
A #bitcoin person is sill more active in conversation than #cat person.

Pretty accurate / nice description.

QOTO 1/ not reporting a post reply + 2/ phantom 'has been edited' post notifications daily...
QOTO not reporting post reply ( @freemo )
Not major but could be 2 things:
1 I've found an unread message without notification...
Example:
https://mastodon.world/@ubi4me/114125880310465209
It was written 1+ hours ago and looking at list of notifications it's not in the list (I will add if notification ever comes) - I found it only by chance re-looking at the thread,
I would have not been told someone replied to me so it's a bit worrying or just a basic enough thing to be important.
I think it has happened before once or twice but didn't report it...
2 And a thing as everyone is experienced maybe daily is the phantom "xyz edited a post" (seen on different servers)
Aa post keeps coming up as a new notification that it's been edited when it hasn't been. This is happens lots daily...
Examples:
https://infosec.exchange/@kcarruthers/114046359555057082
https://mastodon.scot/@kristiedegaris/114023914341537080
Grow better people ? You get what you invest in....
Grow better people - Invest more time into people to get more out of them (find mutuality)
You get what you invest in. Grow better people...
#Fediverse is mostly rebuilding computers and code... not investing time and energy into people.
Priority today is developing people better to 'make' better people as the long-term work.
Soul work.
We have developed #Technology to the death / draining planet's life and our time for less and less in return from #BigTech.
You get what you invest in.
Grow better people most than anything else?

Scarcity isn’t real - it’s manufactured.
There’s enough food, housing, and wealth to go around.
The problem isn’t a lack of resources, it’s a lack of will. UBI isn’t radical. Letting people starve in the richest societies in history is.

You’re a perfectly reasonable human being for avoiding things that are uncomfortable. That’s what humans do.

Communication is key!
Build your dream and maybe mine (I don't think there is another way around that). I reply to your interests and you give some ideas... mutuality and maybe friendship can help WIN:WIN:WIN it for us all...
Consider developing people as your work - not developing machine code!
If life is machine and computers orientated then don't complain if that's what you get and it's leverage against you in the end!
