    Come to think of it, so much of my upbringing has been couched in terms of *this* OR *that* thing. Choose your tribe. Computer wars. Brit pop. Even academic topics. Mastodon or Twitter is just another example. All of the best things, though, have come out of diverse things coming together, not apart.

    Others are fairly anti-Twitter, but while I go through my phases, I'm happy to be on there as a way of crossing divides and building bridges.

    Some people are happy with chaos, or have learned or been trained to sort through it. Others run screaming from chaos. There must be correlations between how people think about the world, and what they end up doing.

    It must be said that the fediverse is still chaotic and confusing. I wonder if this filters out certain demographics and subsets of people in itself. Perhaps there is room for the fediverse and twitter etc to coexist after all.

    @northernjamie You're not at the 360giving data expedition in a couple of weeks are you? Planning on coming up to Manchester for it, thought I'd see if you're around to say hi :)

    Most Mastodon servers are operated by people like you, out of their pocket. Check if your server has a Patreon! It's usually on the "About this instance" link, where the rules are. Support your admins, especially if they're not me!

    Last year in November, #PayPal closed my account without explanation. I still don't know why.

    However, I wrote a post about i and what worries me is the number of comments I've received saying "they did the same to me".

      Facebook's failure in Myanmar is the work of a blundering toddler
      from the Guardian
      The social network ploughs its way through the world and deals with the consequences later. In Myanmar, that strategy has had deadly consequences

    @nico I do love the idea of jumping between instances based on mood. Like going to different cafes or pubs.

    Was really pleased with this, but ran out of time - would have loved to have been able to do another design iteration on it before the competition deadline.

    @deadsuperhero Because every little thing you do is magic. Or an action at least. And actions love nothing more than calls to action, which means buttons, squee!

    @maiyannah Depends. What's a realistic timescale for a small business to develop a successful and philosophical business model? It's a good point though, as I'm considering investing. What would my link with the company be?

    "Almost all of these initiatives are local, they come from cities or small regions who have taken it upon themselves to try something that might offer a better alternative than what exists."
