Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

Yeah, it was sad how that whole thing went down. Ernest was visionary, but protective and had health issues, and a couple of the people who wanted to help were kind of being dicks to him imo.

I feel like with the fediverse we are in the early stages of something that could be really powerful and amazing. Thanks for all you do with this corner of it!

Ah I didn't really see the drama, only brief bits of information from time to time.

The fediverse does feel like the next generation of the internet. There are a lot of obstacles but I do hope it continues to grow (at a sustainable pace).
