Well there’s one obvious answer to all these - the dead awoke and left the graveyard en-masse. I’ve seen that happen in films.

Sweet Emotion - Aerosmith. Get some of those Dazed & Confused vibes.

All the advances in toothcare seems to be around fancier electric brushes or other gadgets, but regardless we’ve never been able to move away from ‘brush for 2 minutes’. I want some fancy device I just bite down on and it zaps my whole mouth clean in 5 seconds.

No, you get automatically issues them. About 1 invite every 2 weeks once you’ve been on there for a few weeks.

Interesting. I might give it a go, thanks.

Yeah I know, but it’s such an ‘all or nothing’ approach. I don’t dislike the idea of boosting. I like to be exposed to other people’s content. I just wish it wasn’t so constant. Kind of feels like people do 1 post of their own and then 10 boosts.

I have both but drifted away from Mastodon. It seems to lack the anarchic wild humour I want. Plus the culture of excessive boosting was too much and just meant my timeline was full of posts from people I don’t follow because they’d been boosted by the people I do follow. I follow folks because I want to hear what they have to say, not what the people they follow have to say.

Also all the servers had too strict rules. Having to post content-warnings if you mention food or other innocuous stuff.

I far prefer Bluesky. It’s a lot more liberal and far more more chill. Plus there’s lots of nonsense that keeps things fun. The feeds are a great way to find new people (you don’t need to beg for followers, just find people you dig and things will grow organically anyway). It takes the good things about Mastodon (decentralisation and open) and the parts of Twitter that were fun (people over brands, weird humour). I hope it keeps growing and opens up to more people, but I don’t mind it taking its time while it stabilises and adds features.

After reading the Jon Ronson book “So you’ve been publicly shamed” where he interviewed a load of people that were outed for both bigger and smaller ‘crimes’, no, I don’t agree with it. Doxxing and other public shaming can have consequences you could not expect.

Plus, what if you get the ID wrong and dox someone innocent? That happens all the time too.

Yeah, this means OP can use their phone constantly for 10 full hours. That doesn’t seem too bad really.

Rocky. Because it’s a Roborock and we’re unimaginative.

A fair few, but as it’s still being developed there’s not many stable uses. You can check some of them out here:

The protocol (AT Protocol) is what’s decentralised, which is separate(ish) to BlueSky the social network.

Shadow Weather is probably as close as you’re doing to get there, I think.
