Growing food is so important...
PERHAPS the basis of all responsible human life!

🤯 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 😕

Imagine your family NEVER GREW ANY VEGETABLES or any food IN THEIR ENTIRE LIFE...

Boost if it's true (no shame in it)

Like what you eat at the table they have 0 clue to grow, maybe just 1 or 2 things max so even if their life depended on it or were given free land they couldn't do much but try youtube videos like from Simply Gardening https://invidious.fdn.fr/channel/UCuy0z9uUkJGkuOT2eWDGY2g (lots of videos out there PICK 1!!!)

And at the price of some foods 💰 also means the balance of easy work to pay is getting less (as things get expensive) - so it's good to "practise" a bit in a tiny patch for yourself before really it's bags of money for silly things you can grow!

Tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers 90% work (almost just need water)!

Peas, salads, radishes, flowers, a tree, whatever - Buy it young if you have top, try seeds, just GROW YOURSELF !

QOTO thoughts - writing you to keep in touch and also to bring some QOTO considerations -

Some is 'why it doesn't work here' but not all related to QOTO completely (but maybe learning without action is not ideal / too limited as what QOTO acronym might infer)... But overall I think many users are looking for more or to participate... and this is measurably not happening.

█ <=== Points are using this symbol

======> INTRO:
█ @freemo + others
I thought I'd write to you more personally on QOTO just to keep in touch and also to bring some considerations

█ some is 'why it doesn't work here' here - not all totally related to QOTO but if learning-without-action is the case here then then is not ideal by some standard of QOTO acronym (to teach others)
So if too limited as the acronym might infer (and question / teaching more isn't happening) then yes it's clear...

So perhaps some considerations to why I think it should be more is here (which depends if you are working towards others / freedom through each other) or can see my way and your way is simply the say if we are to get to something better all round and just accept it more than always focus on bad.

Also good to ask you as a small test what you think this far in using QOTO in relation to others:

█ "Do you think it's actually working towards it's acronym as a 2 way interaction?"

█ I think I'm lucky enough to have an admin that cares (freemo) but who knows how prepared we are to take it to X level which I think we need. So it's not just writing and occasionally boosting I mean... I mean getting shit sorted (personal and global) and it start from that ambiguousness and hard work of chasing loose end from ball of string and then figuring out (unravelling balls of string). Indeed who wants to do that but perhaps cleverest loving people ?

======> LIST
Starting with █ for each sentence these are the measurable things, in no order but all important to me which I'd appreciate reply:

█- Leadership; to involve us all on QOTO or advertise it - I think you need something, at least shaping future together somehow, to measurably to act together, against / for things even if not freedom-loving or however it's more-attractively framed to you...

█- Freemo wanted to do some audio between but only live talk (which my internet speed can't do) so would have helped me to do a audio ping pong recordings (respected and edited of course) which is also good for pre-meditating themes and mediating progress. So not recording memos wasn't bad but was bas in the way it stopped the audio happening mainly because I'm using low-tech, old system, enjoying low-cost modem-speed internet which can't do too much live. So re-consider this at least as a test since you were ok with live which the same thing recorded like a 5min audio ping pong but perhaps it's something else like 'too much' ping pong being possible but it could be moderated / tested either way.

█- I'm not sure of your aims freemo... I thought I was...

█- Specifically seeing you're getting in to AI is a big flag for me (and danger in general).
To see what you are investing in (if not people themselves) is a worry and while I like / trust you it can mean misdirection. Too clever means landing extended friends/QOTO possibly in trouble for it's direction or there is a fear there in who I perceive to be helping what (who will pay for this AI stuff, BigTech? Pharma? - those are who you're bound to signup to things for somewhere down the line... small fish either don't want it or won't be able to supply money for that... so if you don't really need me or us then you might as well say and we can weigh in ourselves to see if we want to be more than just a user or loafer on a benevolent / free space on the net which is only that.

So I'm going for freedom which I see as "enabled by all those that include themselves in it"... and well I don't know if I should try include or label you in freedom but who knows if this server will help me get there basically... and that's what I want I guess mainly from admin as root of steady tree growth.

So I've had feelings of leaving and hope you can say something towards that without ultimatum at all... Just what are you doing here?

Right now I'm not sure what there is for me or even you! Even if 'sterilised world" is also to blame... Concrete imagination has value.

█- Maintenance mode on QOTO

For a long time now, perhaps magnified these comments BUT that is a good thing as plodding along is also not good.

Need more response / participation / heat back.

❓ Who is going for these things / searching for same/similar things? ❓

I question as users but eventually I'm back to admin leading / not leading.

So I appreciate the freeness but not same as working towards freeing things as a life quest (there is much to do pick some stuff).

Maintenance seems to be going on for extended times and sp it continues.

█-Mastodon can't import backups to another profile ( we're locked in to whichever server)
How crazy is that. Can export but not import?

Unless a tool exist (which I'm kind of finding only now) that can help partially on that it means Mastodon is bad is QOTO goes

(Maybe offline or 1 user instance might work to copy "OUTBOX.JSON" file but it's like slightly scary with investing here)

█- Threads / Meta (and all that is basically) is also part of my consideration so not just QOTO or directed at you... because I think we need a ANTI-Meta invasion mechanism also... or some way because whatever we do can be used against us or in their favour in the end (such are tools like hammers),.
Taking over / scraping too easily without us writing disclaimers or legal footers asking them not to is the least I think we can do.

█❓█ So one question is:
Can you add ANTI-Meta disclaimer to interface saying:

"USERS DO NOT CONSENT TO SCRAPING DATA BY ANYONE UNLESS USERS SPECIFICALLY MENTION IT'S WANTED IN THEIR PROFILE"

==================

PEOPLE, LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK OF POINTS, THANKS

FIN / END OF POINTS

==================

@QOTO / #QOTO
HERE TO DISTRIBUTE WEIGHT OF TOPICS AND REPLY WITH OTHERS SO IT'S NOT JUST FREEMO (but if it is just freemo or nobody then this might prove my point - he / we are alone / limited).

I'm looking for more, and you?

==================

P.S - A VIDEO EXAMPLE OF WHAT I JUST SAID

A similar video/audio version of my text is with the link below

https://invidious.nerdvpn.de/watch?v=VVAA0wIqM0w

Video is about building things and refers to revolution or change a lot, is here which is very similar to what I'm saying about participation and structure even without 'my' levels of revolution but something for all of us on QOTO more than just posting/boosting mostly... Let me know also on this what you think...

#Question ☯️ How to balance people? ☯️ Specifically bad actors...

3 main groups as general context:

✔️ 🆗 People who take things for good and already know what's good

☯️ 🆗 People who are learning, testing, experimenting

❌ Bad Actors (professional and deliberate, not just petty revenge)
