Honestly though, I think kids really do benefit from camping ⛺️ & getting to know the outdoors (as well as how to survive in the forest). It gives them a greater appreciation for nature & hopefully a desire to preserve it for the next generation.

Yay! My account is federating: @darnell

I believe Flipboard will prove to be a counterweight to Threads and a prime location for news & pundits (as does not really desire the latter two on their platforms).

@yeri All my foreigner friends & American family with iPhones, iPads & MacBooks use iMessage extensively.

It’s more than just simple messaging as you can send hidden test, animations, games, as well as FaceTime Video/Audio.

I have WhatsApp for my Android friends & the video quality is crap. Also the beta iPad app is buggy as some messages are not delivered.

It also helps that the United States 🇺🇸 has difficulty cracking through Apple’s defenses (WhatsApp is dismissed at a joke)

@yeri Really‽ When I was in Singapore 🇸🇬 for 3 weeks, I communicated with most locals over iMessage (a few used WhatsApp, but those were Android users). As far as iPhone users go, most used both, so it was not a huge deal for them to FaceTime me or contact via iMessage.

darnell,
@darnell@one.darnell.one avatar

@yeri I am not sure if they were from a tech scene (they were all locals), but they had iPhones so we are able to message each other back & forth over iMessage.

The local expats I encountered definitely used WhatsApp, although all those with an iPhone definitely used iMessage with me when I was there.

It could simply be that they adapted to the communication device depending on the person (which is not unheard of).

I know people who use iMessage, Signal, WhatsApp, & Telegram.

If it pings again via , I might do various tests upon other accounts (like & ).

Maybe could set up a donations/sponsorship page similar to what has: https://joinmastodon.org/sponsors

That encouraged me & others to donate and attracted corporate sponsors (I think someone just donated $100,000 or ¥15,728,365.80 recently). via @darnell https://darnell.moe/notes/9sq22w9724
