    I'm noticing this in the !Fediverse too. Partly, I blame it on my poor installation of GNUsocial, which doesn't reliably receive messages in conversations with people I'm definitely subscribed to. I think this happens mostly with people using Mastodon software. It's not helped that I can't subscribe to my own Fedgroups on http://sn.jonkman.ca/groups . Some people formerly active on GNUsocial instances have moved to Mastodon instances, and I'm no longer reliably receiving their messages. Other people have just left eg. @mk Marjolein and @ErkanYilmaz I'm subscribed to more people than ever, but I miss the old friends.

    Just like political elections. The choice of the majority get usurped by the power of the minority. Should have used a #RankedBallot...

    ♲ @Ed Maste (ed_maste@twitter.com): #FreeBSD folks - would you come to a hackathon in Kitchener-Waterloo or Hamilton the week before or after BSDCan 2019 (which is May 14-19)?

    This article is just so full of good, pithy pullquotes: "Those hoping to make positive social change have to convince people both that something in the world needs changing and there is a constructive, reasonable way to change it. Authoritarians and extremists, on the other hand, often merely have to muddy the waters and weaken trust in general so that everyone is too fractured and paralyzed to act." https://www.technologyreview.com/s/611806/how-social-media-took-us-from-tahrir-square-to-donald-trump/

      How social media took us from Tahrir Square to Donald Trump
      from MIT Technology Review
      To understand how digital technologies went from instruments for spreading democracy to weapons for attacking it, you have to look beyond the technologies themselves.

    How very true: "in the 21st century it is the flow of attention, not information (which we already have too much of), that matters." https://www.technologyreview.com/s/611806/how-social-media-took-us-from-tahrir-square-to-donald-trump/

    Hey #Fediverse. When you post pictures, please please please with puppies on top fill in that description box for the visually impaired. You will be helping us out tremendously. We want to enjoy your pictures as much as others do. You don't have to write a novel, but just fill in some details.

    Thanks with much love:
    A Blind Dude

    Feel free to use the #KWVoIP #Mumble server -- it's largely going to waste, since we're not using it for our own meetings. mumble://kwvoip.ca:64738 /cc: @lnxw48a1 @davehunt @bthall
