And skirts/kilts.

Generational conflict is the other major factor. If the generation above me weren’t so difficult to be around it wouldn’t be so hard to imagine.

So, you’re 24 years old and healthy? Color me shocked.

Lol that’s not at all what I’m saying. I have health problems out the wazoo and doctors in so far as I have been able to afford them have not been any sort of help for anything more complicated than the flu.

Seriously though. I don’t think I’ve actually been helped after having gone to the doctor my entire life (I’m 24 for reference).

Symfonium is pretty good as a one time purchase.

It’s happened under far less dire circumstances. If it truly cannot in the modern era it will be entirely due to this sort of learned helplessness.

Folks should also check out neodb.social . it’s good reads, letterboxd, and steam reviews all in one.

Always a good idea. I’ll reach out to them.

It’s less about news and more about advocacy.

FediMatch is a project that’s pretty cool.

One strategy that I’d like to specifically promote is fediverse users calling attention to spaces of the internet where people are talking about the fediverse but there’s relatively few users there that can share their experience.

To that end I’ve been considering things like:

• Fedimigration Reinforcements
• Fedimigration Support Team

Keep in mind that whatever name we pick will also be the hashtag that the Mastodon contingent of this project will end up using. As it stands, they would see posts from this community under #growthefediverse

In my mind. Bluesky is good enough. I’m frequently talking with people through the bridge without realizing it.

But Pixelfed just isn’t a thing most people know about it seems.

You’d be surprised. I’ve had several people reach out unprompted and specifically ask about it
