@kangaroo5383 what if I relate to all 3? 🙊

@devxvda @kangaroo5383 yeah I also thought that most “gifted” kids were just neurodivergent 😅

@kangaroo5383 @devxvda cursed masking 😳🤣

I’ve been struggling to spend much time on Mastodon lately because my feed is >50% discussion of Bluesky

Seeing them makes me feel a terrible cocktail of:

  • FOMO for not having an invite
  • Confusion over why everyone cares so much all of a sudden
  • Fear that the wonderful community I’ve found here on Masto in the last 6 months will die because everyone will leave
  • Existential dread over the immense difficulty of managing a community-governed social media platform

It’s been tough 😖

I felt so much love for Mastodon not even because of the features, or the specific accounts, or even the underlying Fedi philosophy (although I do like all of those things)

I fell in love with Mastodon because as a neurodivergent awkward human who never fit in in mainstream spaces I logged in and saw, for the first time, an entire platform filled with misfits like myself.

Mastodon is why I opened up about my ADHD and social difficulties

I don’t want to lose that.

mariyadelano,
@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

I’m deeply scared that if Mastodon becomes an empty graveyard of abandoned accounts I will have to mask again

I don’t want to mask again. Professionally or personally

I’ve never been more comfortable in my own skin or so successful professionally

I’ve never had such an easy time meeting new people or making new friends

All because Mastodon showed me how many successful people were also neurodivergent weirdos like me.

That I could be myself and live a good life. And that being me was good.

Sorry y’all. I know some of you are replying to this thread already but I got so emotional that I started to cry

Can’t see the screen very well through tears so… I’ll be back when I calm down

@zoomar i guess it always seems more active / fun when experiencing it exclusively through hearsay

@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

@GreenFire I don’t get why the conversation about Bluesky has been so active on here in particular. I see more discussions about it on Mastodon than on LinkedIn, Reddit, or Instagram 🤷‍♀️

@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

@tchambers that would be good. I’ve been worried seeing people give up on the technical complexity of building a more interoperable web.

mariyadelano,
@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

@tg9541 yeah, most of us don’t care about going viral on here. And that’s good. That’s exactly why this place has felt so real and human and… social

I’ve had more moments of social connection here than on any other website I’ve been using the past few months 🤷‍♀️

mariyadelano,
@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

@zoomar I had to look up who that was 🙈

mariyadelano,
@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

@zoomar once again I had to look that up 😂😂. Your examples are curing my FOMO very quickly, thank you

mariyadelano,
@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

@zoomar I’m cured. That is… the opposite of any Mastodon server trending pages that I’ve ever seen

Anybody else want to join me in having a stroke over this article?

This person straight up decided that they can have an entire end-to-end blog post production team of GPT-4 instances talking to each other.

And the way they describe the human writing process is driving me insane

These people know nothing about content and yet they think they are expert enough to automate it all.

Conceited idiots, all of them. Self-absorbed experts in nothing but smoke and mirrors

@tosbourn i read the actual “Article” that this AI team supposedly produced and it’s so bad. Here’s the conclusion

@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

Really enjoyed this Substack essay on the online media landscape of the 2010s (especially Buzzfeed, Gawker, and the other “clickbaity” publications that we all remember)

“To me the 2010s began, for media, around 2008, when it became clear how much traffic could be directed to websites through the practice of search-engine optimization. Coverage was oriented towards the kinds of things people search for; the editorial tone was “robotic and overstuffed.“”

My husband and I were just talking about him last night and how much this one horrible individual has harmed the entire country and a lot of the world.

We personally know people who used to be friends and then got radicalized by his show.

Good riddance.

@tanepiper @DJDarren sigh but hopefully it will be a much smaller and less funded platform
