    @djsundog I like how you use the term 'grayhair' as a replacement/alternative for the term 'graybeard'..(?)

    (Am not saying that beards are the exclusive domain of only a particular gender though, of course not. There are women who have beards, as example of fact, and imo they do not lose their femininity and/or goodstanding for having them.)

    Disclaimer: I myself wouldn't call myself a very technical user.

    Even though some family & friends would still text me via WhatsApp or Facebook whenever they feel confused and they think they "have a virus" or something on their phone or PC.

    @drequivalent You're a nontechnical user. You download the RIOT app from Itunes or Google Play store. Enter your username and password. Done, you have an account. No need to know what a server is or how they work. You tell other people your username and they can find you, or you can search for them. Links to groups from mailinglists or websites just work. PMs work, and there's even encryption if you're paranoid.

    That said, RIOT is far from perfect, and it still sucks compared to the corporate/evil mainstream apps. But, as I've said about 3 times now, we ran a side-by-side comparison a coupple years ago with all the non-corporate social media/chat apps and RIOT is the only one that wasn't too bewildering/frustrating/complicated/limited/flaky for our users (artists, producers, and DJs).

    We in the open source community have a *serious* usability problem and it is creating a digital divide between those privileged enough to be technical, and those who are left to the evil corporate wolves.

    Personally I think of as buying a trendy sneaker with a free XL-sized Qi-compatible wireless charging pad...

    But I don't have $350 to spare so that's all academic on my part, tbh.

    I read this article earlier today, in trying to better understand (at least some of) the hate towards Oscars best picture winner 'Green Book'... (article from this January)

    Some say the $350 Nike Adapts are too expensive. There are other Nike's, Adidas'es, Puma's etc that cost at least twice that and have no "tech" at all.

    In the "ideal" world, no sneaker would cost more than $20.

    (Solution: never buy any sneaker worth more than $20? Perhaps...)

    Interesting advice. Not applicable to all situations though imo. At least me myself I am fully, completely, and utterly burnt out of any & all forms of social activism.

    For example: mention me just a lil' bit sideways and I'll freak out & implode.

    ยซ In the past, it often made sense to believe something until it was debunked; in the future, for certain information or claims, it will start making sense to assume they are fake. Unless they are verified.

    If this sounds like a suspicious and bureaucratic world, itโ€™s important to remember the alternative: a societal fracturing into a million epistemic communities, all at war with one another over the nature of truth. ยป

    And remember that both North Korea and Cuba both claim to be 'democratic'. In each their own unique way.
