Is this another one of those b.s. faux political stunts?

@Elfie @shibao
Turns out it has to do with street music called Decibels or whatever- never heard of it but would be interested to give it a shot.

>>Wow Sunday mornings in this feed are so nice, all these nature photos are so restorative and something I'm coming to look forward to each week.
<< I like seeing other people's amateur

>>When I see posts about "you're a failure and part of the problem if you turn away from politics" or whatever...look. I have a high-responsibility job, and I'm also a shop steward and single mom. I carry a LOT, not just for myself but for others. Every day.

Dear reporters, news people, etc.,

The reason you're not getting any reach on Masto is because you rarely interact. You just come here, post your news article, and don't engage with the community.

You will never get reach if you don't interact with people. This is not Twitter. This is not Facebook. If you want this platform to work for you, you have to become a part of the community, not just shout at us and leave. Forget everything you learned in the walled corporate digital gardens.

Imagine writing an app that tricks users into doing just this- but doesn't tell them about it and they're too distracted with frontend content.

Easy way to scam both sides.

Two scenarios::
>> "Stop asking that question, RTFM!"
<< Pulls open book with penciled notes and eared pages

>> "Stop asking that question, RTFM!"
<< Pulls open wiki page with commentary and external links

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

Now the elite:::
>> "Stop asking that question, RTFM!"
<< "Which one, the book or wiki?"
>> "Aren't they the same?"
<< "Clearly, I shouldn't be asking you for advice."

i'm beginning to think that the computing world is composed of two groups, old timers (like me) and super-onliners, and both of us are looking at what each other is doing and going "jesus christ that looks complicated, screw that"

@hakologist

oh boy, I thought we were communicating on the same level...

Tell me, are you familiar with older forms of symbology, specifically cryptic communication using steganography inb4 industrial revolution??

Made sugar cookies and brownies tonight. Figured if I needed to heat up the place- might as well make something while I'm at it. Two birds with one stone kinda thinking.
