You still have all of those things; but no the 95% also have it (albeit in a walled garden). It's more "Others are participating, but not how I want to" than anything I think.
I do wish more tech oriented communities ran off RSS/blog/etc instead of Twitter though.
- dingnuts 2y agothere are a lot of them, actually. I added the Kagi Small Web feed to my RSS reader a few days ago and I'm kind of overwhelmed. considering where I am in my personal journey (discovering a ton of bloggers) this whole thread is so weird to read but increasingly I feel like I live on a different planet
- w0m 2y agoIt almost feels like people are annoyed the non-technical population has options now.
- johnnyanmac 2y ago>but no the 95% also have it (albeit in a walled garden) They have it but are in a prison or a butchery, which sort of defeats the entire spirit of the before-tools. >It's more "Others are participating, but not how I want to" than anything I think. You could phrase it like that. I dont want Musk to tell me who to subscribe to. I don't want Google to hide specific articles I searched for, even when I surround with quotes. With my feeds, I would simply unsubscribe from such muck. Here, you surrender your feed to the platform. But apparently the majority love being shepherded into whatever makes the company the most money. Content is content in their eyes. It's not how I want it. I also speak out against it because how they are doing it is dangerous. But perhaps it is too late these days.
