@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org why do you avoid to bring people here?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I too avoid bringing in people, the one I know would compare everything to Twitter or Facebook and ask me directly to have this and that.

From what I follow most is tech related and I’ll have to deal with the aftermath of anyone I know getting interested in something they can’t handle by themselves… 🫣

Also, 99.999% of all the people I know can’t speak or even recognize the words here as English. 🙃

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Your comments around maintaining your “filter bubble” and “being able to keep up” are things I think we should try to find good ways and tools to manage. I too like the filter bubble I’ve created around myself (so far) and probably want to mostly keep it that way (more or less). Yes keeping up is getting harder, which has driven me to work on and experiment with “Filtering”.

I don’t really see Twtxt / Yarn.social as a “social media” per se, I see it more of an ecosystem and an easy way to get a “thought” or two out there with some familiar things (of course) borrowed from “social media”. Remember that I think much of the same concepts really predated the likes of Twitter/Facebook anyway (finger? Status.net? and others…) so the “sour taste” we have is maybe ill placed?

Anyway, let’s keep trying to make something good 🤗

@mckinley@twtxt.net Well we all have our reasons and they’re all valid and good imo 👌 I think as long as we continue to make the thing we want to and like to use that’s all that matters right? That’s how I started out on this journey and project, I created the very thing I wanted to use, turns out others didn’t mind using it either 🤗
