💬 MY COMMENT
This next part from #Wikipedia show a mistake in thinking by Chris or just normal part of leaving and thinking that 'going back' is going to be any better than before... it's mostly the desperation we've had going back to #family mostly from a cold world and friends are not much better either.
Frankly because we're #desperate we think it's a good idea otherwise we would leave them to it because even after a nice time (or not, both ways) we have to move on and they reached their limits too probably in #life. So they usually are not for us (we don't choose our #parents probably).
Also many are unhealthy unwise people sometimes - and just natural in #unprogressive #society (deliberate #state #design) to spend too long if everyone is #UNthinking people (just followers).
So after feeling alone seems a good idea to go back but after a week or 2 isn't (again) hence this part of the story I think which would have been short lived anyway...

Opening Scene - Into The Wild
"Wayne, Greetings from Fairbanks! Arrived here two days ago. It was very difficult to catch rides in the Yukon Territory, but I finally got here."
"Picked up a new book on the local flora and fauna. I'm prepared and have stocked all necessary comforts to live off the land for a few months."
"Might be a very long time before I return south."
- Alexander Supertramp (Chris McCandless), April 1992
The "Trolley Problem" #Theory + #Video Clip
The "Trolley Problem"
#Theory + #Video Clip
I always liked the theory of 'HOW things are done' a bit more than frankly the result or "unthinking" ways like...
...buying in the answer
...shipping it from somewhere else all the time...
The morality seems to suffer the same if you do not think and just go for the cheese or candy that inevitably 'someone else' has left there for a few reasons - not all of them freedom loving (or even shockingly aiming for the opposite!).
Here I discuss the morality of this theory in today's sense... but for more accuracy this is the wiki page reference of it...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trolley_problem
So I like also the non-extreme ways of thinking and not forcing people into binary in just the binary sense, but I do think you do have to think more often than not!!!...
like 70%+ of the time..
So it's like saying think deeper more than don't !
IF you do only the immediate and short-term ways the results are effected long-term because you are not looking at the bigger picture or even what the others are doing and how/why/etc.
Of course we're born into the problems so it's hard not to already be in problems and jump into it from day 1 (like when you're 18 trying to find a job or even having a #passport and what that means) so we all learn how bad it is AFTER... read terms and conditions after... or even learn what the terms mean in #legalese...
So then it's learning and unlearning as you are unavoidably or highly probably going to do more harm or reach climactic problems by ignoring things especially when you do know or see it everywhere.
The morality and Trolley Problem are solved by long-term thinking..
and this equation....
☑️ long-term thinking = short-term
So if you can get the message through more often then everyone is a winner even after short-term disasters which are often unavoidable as time for thinking and acting has already gone,
Hardships mean just by doing the #bad less often in a methodical way within loss and becomes better from people needing to learn better (but yes this luxury of increasing #intelligence has it's #costs or time and $energy)... but seems no other way.
Doing things too directly (skipping steps of thought) or less looking at your method (=learning bad habits) means people are going to DISPLACE THE COST or SHIFT SUFFERING involved and lose responsible / control.
So even in the #colonial sense or being supplied stuff, it's not feasible because people will reach unhappiness when losing control, losing understanding from why things are happening from their usage as it's unseen.
The Trolley Problem is usually about an over-simplified short-term scenario of death presented as "either a smaller group die or larger group die" (by switching the train tracks switch yourself) but to achieve actually a different result needs more than revisiting the same Trolley Problem situation over and over because things get worse in more areas if only doing that.
Life is undoubted a knock-on effect and connect to an eco-system we could work with more often (as a whole) instead of leaving everything to 'everyone else' (who is also thinking someone else has control or responsibility when it's really almost nobody!)
A SUMMARY OF ANOTHER KIND...
➡️ Humans learning a better way work long term
➡️ Not expecting a switch to solve it or even accepting "Trolley Problem" at all
For example everyone could spread the loss and lose together sharing the death in smaller way between more people AND solve it after a while like feeding people instead of profiting from them.
➡️ The short-minded choice *all the time* avoids responsibility and future children get the same problems happen and "the can is kicked further down the road" by current people avoiding responsibility.
➡️ Predicting the trolley problem (or even thinking of the trolley problem itself being a bad way to think) is better in the overall sense and reflects more to it in reality.
➡️ This predictive thinking of "doing better" and "I will improve this next time" by people I feel is what is missing from daily life. I admit it is often "enforced" by rules from past people but often this is just what parents tell us and can be a bit imaginary as a line we can't cross and may not even exist!
What we could do is break more smaller ones more often or test smaller rules as false fences of truth and what people think of a 'concrete' in the mind (a bit like Wizard of Oz not being a real thing and just a man behind a curtain).
➡️ Sometimes more than 'legal' 'illegal' definitions we see these things are only past people who try to put us in concrete binary definitions of "morality" which are clearly not because they often expect just people to follow and not debate or test things (it's usually purely for business what is legal and what is not).
➡️ When younger or as a family to defend each other's right to choice seems best to do it and learn why. Ok! Now go do it more often!
➡️ Don't be the person who would forget a problem and come across the same problem again later! #FreeSpeech etc!
➡️ Everything actually matters because it's the micro that adds to macro or larger blocks of life.
➡️ And you can't cheat (or else cheat yourself).
➡️ We all have to be responsible more often to solve these problems and have less of the #Trolley #mindset.
➡️ To die naturally happens and even that's from human-added choice (people want wars) so it's about the long-term habits and micro-choices which tie to principles that are going to solve it all or more often.
➡️ If not tied to principles or much more than going for the cheese then it seem you are constantly going to jump ships on fire and never going to improve your ship until all the ships are sunk.
Or worse get manipulated from shirking responsibility to control your own ship (your body or life).
➡️ SO THE PAST ALSO HELPS ACCEPT FUTURE LOSS... IF DON'T THE WRONG WAY ALREADY OR NOT ADAPTING TO CURRENT PEOPLE.
And if the past has made the long-term #unsustainable or less #sustainable (population increases from using #fertilizer and #fossilfuels) ignoring people's other needs of morality (another kind of happiness achieved even when poor) means further bad ways and more desperate ways to get that fuel, etc... like doing deals with #Russia (or whoever) - I mean didn't people get it after the Cold War or any war that you can't do deals with your Super-Power enemy!
➡️ So then we can only take the hit by going against or with the method as "a bit better" than repeating deals with the devils.
(E.G. REDUCE gas from Russia? Is a tough one but accepting we should use what we have better or on our own soil more often and gradually, more and more grow what we can ourselves relieves suffering to ourselves and others overall)... obviously not all $tates want this is another "onion skin of consideration" of which you might aim to #DIY energy and reduce it yourself.
I know that sounds 'too #humanitarian' but we have to do it for other #humans too else fall into the trap of doing it for the #money / #banks / #state control and trapping those that have lost control themselves completely.
#Hunting money or buying into other people's way also has it problems feeding #profit into what seem a black hole for spending on oppression and #war.
So that's why the 'best of worst scenarios' is to Do It Yourself while calculating / reducing / testing problems for a more educated pull of the switch (long-term - meaning many switches not just one trolley or train to think about for your life's quest!).
#Fediverse Failure ... People *must* build & invest in people, if it's about #Freedom. Else IT FAILS 100% like everything we see without people helping people!
Involving other people into your life is what is missing to help solve all the small things you'll never do alone - that's the TLDR.
I also mention Richard Stallman and other examples along the way because I respect him (adn you) - but could anyone in any movement not do the people work and be successful...
NO. 100%.
As far as I know (and asked most people) nobody is doing the people work like a niche waiting to happen... (ever get get that DONATE button only under "How you can help"?)
For a movement it's obvious that it is about people not even toilet paper money in 2years time ticking away it's value in the banks loaning it behind you back!...
But NOBODY wants to do this work even with that said... even the contact button will not get you a person sometimes that will work together with you to see if you say anything - UNLESS by chance you're this expensive thing we just happen to want right now! And even then you're discarded
☑️ PEOPLE HAVE 0 WORTH NOW.
So TODAY it's more about machines unfortunately....
Your website included if nobody is really behind them to check out your fans - and for those that reply only the paranoid behind site is there - made by people pretending they want attention or progression with people.
That's the main part done...
#Disclaimer over NOW LET US KICK TO PIECES the above so you hopefully realise and make a start on your NEW LIFE.
➡️ THE AIM:
➡️ WHAT'S YOUR REAL JOB IN LIFE... ?
To find something more than the casual entertainment or '#job' searching constantly, the passing time in a bit of #education - ton of rabbit-hole #politics and then quit out back to every day job and family... going nearly nowhere. Feeling like you might be growing a child but realise it's no better than your own desperate life seeking meaning in yet another mouth to feed with #fairytale stories built to be broken and then an agree look at you, around 18 or earlier - TRAITOR YOU ARE! (too many disney films will do that to you)
This is basically like a Twitter #Lifestyle of using Fediverse... under-appreciating the whole reason(s) we're here.
I don't under-estimate financial troubles you have and stupidity dumping all your money in a child the #state owns but by not spiraling out from your family, you're not even helping the finances or your child either (even that needs people behind it and even some people will do it for free ---> even if that is not the only main goal all the time and can involved paid people like I said with #Stallman - have a mixed tier of people who love what they do not all out #GNU / unpaid and not all out #paid by Google / BLING ).
Actually your usage is less than being on Twitter sometimes if your friends are not here or you're not planning to do anything but use this place for going to #FOSS a few times a year (which is nice - try cram in holiday and education in 3days great).
Without more people together working DAILY / weekly with what they have already, what they do already etc TOGETHER, then we can't do this #freedom stuff AT ALL. It's not just a yearly thing or temporary browse and virtue-signal click...
Hey #Techies - yeah you too - all the good code comes to an end and even in the trash 🗑️ once you've re-written it a million times and then they block an internet pipe or add something in browsers to change goal-posts or re-write something in phones (all happened before right?).
On some level there is always someone else controlling all this and that can be reached and stopped. #Mesh is a good idea but even still people are are they learning how to communicate other than "oh wow, look at this technology - err... ok been there done that - fucking weirdos" after 1 message.
We all have a lot of shit and need help with baggage -do politely pick and choose but do not ignore (do listen and read and get the feeling if genuine).
The enemy's will is too strong elsewhere to ignore the 99% for your 'saving time' and 'I'm busy' excuses while I see what your activity is like from your profile !
Yeah!
Our will is not matching their will so thing we do gets taken down quicker than we have got each other as friends.
Just as "users" we will lose and just get rounded up.
OK ARE YOU GAY AND FRISKY
OR SOMETHING ABOUT 'RELATIONSHIP' WITH ME - CUM ON
#Tinder is not a great example (by far) but imagine people can go as far as sex from just messaging and for us that could be just as great to work on #projects / find each other / space to do something / create from our own suggestions / accommodate each other right? (not sex)
BUT OH MY JOB AND FAMILY ARE ENOUGH! NOOOOOO
There is little real mutuality there and people are not in it to win it (win freedom).
My people, please just don't carry on doing the same $tate games mostly and expect the #shitshow you're paying for to stop or even beg for mercy -
STOP THAT FUCKING BEGGING SHIT - DON'T TRY TO USE LOGIC AND REASONING AGAIN WITH PROFESSIONALLY CRUEL PAID PEOPLE - IT'S UNINTELLIGENT TO GO BACK TO THEM... AND DECADES NOW...
THEY UNDERSTAND HOW YOU WORK, YOUR 100% GREAT REASONS - OVER AND OVER. WHICH THEY SIMPLY YAWN AT AND CONTROL - OR NEXT TIME AROUND WILL CHANGE IT BACK TO HOW IT WAS.
EFFORTS FAILS 100% like that other than together daily exploring more here to up ourselves (and other things with it but not bucketting water from boats with holes pre-drilled in the bottom and sold to you).
Don't wait for your job to fail before you do something about something... or banks to hold your money and not take it while your busy thinking the same number on your bank account statement is actually the same in 1 year (even if the number is).
These are professional bastards you're dealing with, and thought of maaany things...
They are not even listening to your begging while riding their yachts or what you think they really do apart from accumulate and spend on crap.
YOU NEED TO TAKE CARE OF THE "YOU AND ME" NOT STATE
Across everything you need to take care in order for all of it to be repaired slowly but surely (doesn't have to be all-in now but how useful it is to have one more willing person around or extra hands).
=====================
OK WHAT'S THE ANSWER AGAIN BUDDY? (YOU'RE MAKING ME FEEL BAD AND BULLYING ME ALREADY!!)
=====================
So, what you do already is great, but try picking up the best of them/us here on Fediverse, or even just me to test it and leave a comment how I failed - this gives meaning - some meaning to you
Jump some hashtags and direct message people... and make contact happen...
REMEMBER:
Your 'nice' family and colleagues usually give NO SHITS and are not into doing anything other than "things for the money" as relative baseline to you and your "relationship" - which are not the way to fix anything long-term...
WHY MONEY NO SOLVE MI PROBLEMO?
because all money is #Debt see and increasingly given out loans de-bases all our existing value and dilutes our efforts out of existence (imagine mixing water with real juice - after a while it's just water).
VALUE PROPOSITION HERE?
So we're all proper people and proper value in many ways (we can't avoid that even if we lie a bit or exaggerate). It takes a lot of effort to fake it and even then doesn't work! So even if there are some shit people we're going to have to kick in online it's still more than doable and learning curves to make thing a bit forgivable... and no keys to my Lexus is ever going to be given let's face it.
(again YOUR family and other 'Trust' don't work great AND OFTEN they don't give a fuck if you tried convincing them already 100 times! About #religion, about #waste, #petrol, #war, buying crap... Lots of us are leaving family as we speak I'm sure...)
YOU NEED TO...
Work how I want / we want (yes it's not just you but others so it's also a balance of me AND YOU - but after taking the time looking at the profile we can do more I'm sure or call it 'attempted' - leave a note in their "NOTE" section to see who you already tried with).
Literally aim to work together from the very start and find that #magic #combination between you, will appear - do try like your life / our lives depended on it Batman/kindperson!
If you're too #comfortable / #bourgeois you're probably going to move on from this post and say you have work in the morning and turning the heating up full blast.
But if you know - then every person who tries or writes a post like this DESERVES to be found out and used. You strike gold instantly from persistence / dedication or passion - whatever I have that money can't buy.. even if you don't see it yet. It's there.
If you think you can only pay people to work and expect happiness through the state relationship taxing your asses for #war...
YOU'RE WRONG!
WE SEE IT ALREADY!
History I think proves it over and over... It's nice for a few month (at the beginning) and then it gets boring or you get kick out when they downsize... whatever.
Do the fucking maths - they are raking it in Billions AND 'somehow' it also gets worse the more they get. Hmmm - See how this dark 'magic' works proportionately with money and them making their own rules?
Yes let's hope the job changes something FUCK OFF!
(NOT ABUSING YOU)
The real work is done without paying the $tate that #oppresses you and when people do it anyway for #free why not use them #mutually?
Then you can consider monetising it. For now keep things as they are but increment growing #relationship #relativity between people FIRST.
Your family and money-related relationships are not the way! (because even they don't even work great or you think they do until you talk politics for 10mins! ------> Go ahead and try AND LET ME KNOW HOW IT WENT / IF THERE IS REAL CHANGE!)
What #RMS and other people here (yes even on Fediverse!) are not doing is the same elsewhere - not increasing peer-to-peer / horizontal work. ↔️ ↔️ ↔️ ↔️ ↔️ ↔️ ↔️ ↔️ #P2P #SEEDING IF YOU WILL ALLOW THAT SIMILARITY...
So for example if #RichardStallman himself can't do the work, then at least he could organise the fans a bit to do it themselves (a bit like an official forum helps others as volunteer) in a pyramid to provide help TO THE MANY but also work in a more personal way more Mastodon based.
That is the next level after that forum style messaging like the actual work to to fulfill more of everyone's wants and even let them dream a bit).
ALL these people getting followed currently on Fediverse ARE NOT doing working together... Maybe I will list the best of them... but I don't even want to advertise them as they don't provide much and will even disappoint you after some 'very nice posts' we all have enough of. You want to touch the stars and be more like one (even without the #Gary #Glitter).
And then even celebrate a new us each time.... as fans, as unique people! That is the golden egg or whatever! 🥚 <--- need a golden emoji egg please on the double!
For example I'm happy to organise and talk to #RMS fans even let them comment on me - we can stop anytime too!
A more balanced way (a practical togetherness not just for geeks / admin / #Techies) or even stop-start can happen to test things but I feel like I need a bit of 'official' backing to get the some "weirdos" together (even weirdos can't accept other weirdos these days, that's how bad it is) so it becomes more X-Men style togetheness- even if I'm the guy in the wheelchair called Charles :)
I'll take that! ♿
It's like totally proportional that if other people don't really matter anymore
...or only matter when part of a $tate or $ubsidiary relation$hop (I mean #relationship excuse the previous typo)... then what else does it lead to...
more fascism of course! (hierarchical authoritarian #government) right?
That grows from you doing near-nothing to the above.
It can almost only lead there. And so we see it happen - #fire 🔥 everywhere and even people comment the "oh no not again"
It's like smelling their own finger and expecting different (ok that monkey video is funny) but common now, enough watching the #shitshow hashtags already.

Missing from Fediverse?... Trust... and Real Friendship (Organised and Encouraged)...
Q. TLDR What's missing from the #Fediverse... ?
A. Trust...
As any "user" will know using the less-evil "systems" (those less invasive with near-0 #algorithms like Mastodon) makes things hit and miss here on the Fediverse... and it's going to be the same unless we change our work habits to work *with* each by investing time into each other, otherwise else we get ruled and divide alone...
We can entertain things *a bit more* without $tate cashing us in for every single transaction we make - which is never helping anyone and actually takes away a lot of heat and real help overall.
(boost please for more work on this)
The rest is explained below but "Trust" and increasing #Friendships seems to be what's needed / can't be left as it is.
We can achieve #Trust with visible #feedback comments / #testimony / #ProofOfWork / #credibility online (like if I do something bad someone says and we argue it).
If you can think about trust and if it's true then we can work on increasing it with most of what we have other than conscious effort on our part or as the #people #project.
To increase trust for those that want and see the point to increase participation in life...
( ...online then offline, one big circle 🔁 ).
⭐ My answer is to dedicate time to looking / talking / helping grow others more personally and that opens up much more and harmless from a distance until we meet more and more in person.
Really looking, and weaving ourselves together to form a bigger #mesh and #blanket of people... is for the way that we haven't seen regularly...
#Email, #IRC, #P2P, #XMPP, static websites, they are not enough ➡️ because people themselves can't do more than 1 or 2 replies max and get 'weirded out' at some point over their own shadow (or actually anything they choose). Because they are not focused on #friendship.
Same about #Mastodon or any part of #Fediverse
not making people more deliberately part of the value and frankly just entertainment and education-without-action mostly.
EXAMPLE
Even posting this seems to make a like-minded person like @rysiek@mstdn.social / @rysiek@hackers.town
blocks me and actually creates animosity. Crazy and unsaid - why are people so afraid or whatever if even #rysiek a hacker doesn't even have courtesy to say why? Probably but shows life is losing meaning as everything is becoming unsaid and people considered worthless..
We (they) never really build on things doing things like that with people - or even get past the basic #communication hurdles. Even if people do some good work there is a lot they are not doing well with *people* (people not just tech).
The better examples of communication are from geeks or other "extreme" fans of stuff, especially in forums previously, because their mutual interest in hardware / software wok for things as a kind of #relationship
but that is still not enough as far as people bridging the gap...
More #relativity and #relationship is needed and real care curation... for #intelligence spread or people just growing their #dreams however they want.
We need something more on the people front. Not just cold #system.
People actually helping others improve by looking closely at each other's stuff and making a kind of better #understanding to link them to other things or even set it up for them!!
Helpful #critique helps for something #measurably usable for that person (not just stone throwing or misunderstanding for months or blocking quickly).
And not just me me me but, here try this for you you you!) ...
Where's the dedicated relativity here on Fediverse aside from one-way posts?
United it seems in hating #Trump #Bezos #Zuckerberg (go ahead look at how many posts are there) but how mny actuall build on each other's stuff?
Hating doesn't really count highly for me or they are just fear-reaction posts... when we need to positively build *ALSO*... else really get left with nothing.
One-way machine type #Tech talk isn't the only thing to invest in but people.
Ok plenty of fixes and advice happen here for devices but on the internals of people and 'other' fixes inside to love themselves or share with others deeper still feels very machine based. So something more daily as written sign or a space, time to check in...
The tough stuff is yonder inside the person who could be getting confidence from others to play with further more others. #Evangelism if you will (as there are plenty of #Tech angels here,..
Emotions, Emotional intelligence - to hear what people are saying or could be in other words and help train nuances / variances etc..
To say "nice one!" and occasionally rant is still not the improvement I mean or only a small part of it = it's not dedicated / organised... and even weird for others if 1 person says it rather than a group (#psychology at play)
Even if this trust and relativity just means just me and you seeding here and to do something more on that on the regular - even as a test and handout dreams and objectives - that's a heck of a lot more...
1/ ➡️ Up to us instead of waiting for others forever... the caliber of person, true isn't here, but who is ready to build trust maybe we could collect up?
People actually helping others improve in whatever way they can and find others that can, point toward appreciating them and their work - could there be anything better?
Nnow we're talking #social ..
#change
You can't even find any #free work here even if you post it...
People with websites question
why you even contacted them when they clearly say you can contact them - fucking crazy.
Mastodon people not writing in their profile they want pure peace so people keep trying them... Just write it in the post!
My attempts probably need 'legitimizing' as it's easy to blame myself - but surely all across Fediverse questions go unanswered and lost.
It should be good enough ANYONE can type, have hands or legs or just pure will to be able to be asked or given something to do - even create on top of existing things.
You can't even draw a picture and send it to someone.
A bit more dedicated plug-in-and-play into non-commercial work for the whole cause(s)...
Machines installed software CANNOT do the people work.
It's the same as email days here.. hit-and-miss lack-of-depth one-way communication
====================
Quick TLDR
====================
from a post I made asking my admin to work on improving / organising people more than just systems or AI expecting disorganised / disorderly people to do it better...
2/ ➡️ #p2p fails when #users are not doing #peertopeer themselves (having a system is not enough)
3/ ➡️ Real progress is the users and admin doing the people-to-people work daily rather than mass-storage #AWS McDonalds that doesn't encourage much more than the consumer style user storage and one-way writing more than empathy creating human harmony between our server or others...
Some of the above taken from my own notes:
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/113826459858752168
NEEDING TO SKILL-UP
To increase emotional intelligence is one thing since we all start out with and without many skills -directly we need to teach and make that part of our instances... else just have slow progress as 'users' (and abusers actually with Techies included in not doing minimal human practice which catches up with us all one day).
A few people can really do good work on each instance and build trust and have it visible / tangible / witnessed...
My life proves people actually can't do many things like reply (low and lacking any depth) and the truth why, is not clear, so that needs to come out.
Lack of depth is killing other people and planet (without being a drama king or queen about it)
We really have to help others FULL STOP.
(yes some won't need but really all this tech is less useful without more depth)
The training / nudging of people daily on how to communicate or give example by making audio podcasts together - just something... already in line with what they want to do, retro game revival or whatever - just not playing alone and wasting time. Linux PlayStation also needs merging with People's streams....and work for us all more often *personally*.
What is measurably the potential (if not problem) on the #Fediverse is things like teaching / showing that pseudonyms are still real people, the avatar doesn't always represent someone totally etc etc and what all these scary #acronyms mean.
Help others say aloud if they doubt and resolve it.
#Tech and #Techies can be cold non-emotional / overly logical when dealing with humans and obviously this is barely human.
While I UNDERSTAND human 'imperfection' is crap compared to 'perfect' machine and seems more desirable, it's not and not sustainable or ethical. All jobs and people need to inject more humanity into their 'jobs' (which are their to strip and extract very specific usually-unhealthy things for state as profit)
The TikTok ban, the Musk Twitter takeover, the Facebook moderation policy changes, the Republicans’ rapidly intensifying crackdowns on speech... let these be the proof you needed to move anything you care about online to a space you control.
Digital sovereignty is more important than ever.

" ... #loans, which were initially seen as a positive inflow of liquidity, quickly led to further financial obligations for many families. After all, #interest had to be paid on these loans.
Illegal lenders stepped in. The pressure on families became unbearable, leading to the sale of #land, #migration, the break-up of families and ultimately even #suicide."

💬 MY COMMENT
I think this is the same for all States that install or maintain the bank system which eventually simply delays all the #debt and reach limits of planet and people stressing and extracting each other for profit arguably getting not much further than if they did less and made less profit for a their state that spends /wastes it and more likely uses it for war and oppression economic 🏦 💰 or otherwise ✈️ 💣
#threads and #bluesky may be nice *now*. The companies are trying to grow a large and interesting userbase. Money is being invested towards a good first impression.
But don't fool yourself into believing “maybe this time is different”; these places cannot be nice forever, nice is just not as profitable as toxic.
Once users are locked in, don't think for a second the screws won't get turned on them. Do your future self a favor: don't invest too much in any platform that won't let you leave.

F is for Freedom and #FreeSchool hashtag is what this is about...
All things towards #Freedom (moving from Shorter to Deeper and Caring thoughts)
TOGETHER & MORE OFTEN DIRECTLY (who else is going to do it?).
#FreeSchool profile has #Notes #Quotes (extracts / gems) from great #Books #Videos #Talks #Websites from all around the world towards
#DIY Care (because nobody else is going to as best as you do for those around) - #Caring IS our main #Politics / #Politics and "System" (not a system of cheating each other but caring and what Capitalism is cutting out - this is what we need to put back in and teach to those willing).
#Degrowth / PostGrowth
#WellbeingEconomy #DoughnutEconomics
#CaringEconomy / #CareEconomy / #Partnerism
"Free School" is a term for a movement born from the 1960's / 70's using educational living & learning practice towards #Caring & #DIY with all others (all at the same time - not an after-thought or specialism in 1 field or person who is a #compartmentalised person ignoring others in other fields). Caring to involves more things, increasingly aiming towards everything...
Posts are 1-line #Notes and #Quotes that links all other things (it's all relative).
Long comments use CW to shorten post vertically and add a 'show more' button to reveal more text if you want it. Long posts might seem bad but it's giving chance to more connection and understanding.
All things towards #Freedom (life moving from Shorter to Deeper thought).
Freedom doesn't come from short-depth lifestyles / short lines of text / ignoring / #inaction. Not less communication between lovers of similar things. MORE!)
#FreeSchool = Learning Together 🔁
#FreeSchool = Working Together 🔁 (eventually + I do Free work for Freedom.
#FreeSchool = Co-Operating & #DIY Solutions 🔁
See My #FreeSchool (Hashtag) for latest examples anytime. Or keep open and refresh from time to time:

#FreeSchool ➡ Increment Talking + Peacefully solve everything.
TLDR - Inaction = Fascism
Trust comes from "slowly but surely"... Doesn't have to be all-in, but peace doesn't come from one-way short messaging on 'social' Mastodon either - collecting memes and cats only is limited!
Remember we need develop better humans as well as 'develop' code on computers etc.
☮ Peace needs more... even to save all types of cats!
Get in touch - I'm someone that cares for everything because it's all human-related...
Human #chats welcome - I using #Jitsi audio chat which uses JUST browser (ANY PLATFORM + 2minutes to enter !)
(i.e. no-install / no account / no google / instant / privacy-respecting / safe-enough, etc!) Really the best out there - any platform / device! Instant audio chat !
Just ask for a link and prepare a few topics!
#AltText used (when I remember).
FREE WORK - I do free audio and video editing (anything considered - just ask).
Again - Creating Trust needs a bit of trust given "slowly but surely"... not all-in... being relaxed about it... but has to be more - 'working' like a 2nd job towards peace because your job isn't going to do it / it's now allow by State to get there! War increases prices etc ☮
So do "peace" as a side-job like it was your real job in the world, parallel to the Capitalism (Trap) you (we) were born into. We have to accept that and fight out of that and not be comfortable in it.
Heart and Soul all the way.
