#UtopianFedi

It is good and important to see and remind people of all the shit that is happening - to inform one self and each other. But my timeline can become very dark.

So it is also very important to uplift the stories and perspectives that are building and fighting for a #BetterFuture -- to see comrades doing cool stuff and inspire and cause each other to act and build hope and organisation and networks and resilience.

So this is a call for #UtopianFedi posts. #PeopleAreTheAlgorithm

Kinda cool... I now follow enough people that boost #news stories that I don't think I need to directly follow more news people. I might, just to add to their awareness that being here reaches people. But #boosts are so much different here than on #twitter. I LOVE that I get to see everything that people #post or #boost. No back room decisions that are out of my hands!
#PeopleAreTheAlgorithm

Bums me out seeing "favs don't do anything here" messages. C'mon, people. Do you think letting someone know you've seen/read their post has no value? It feels valuable to me (as a frequent star/fav clicker and grateful receiver).

The algorithm here is made up of actual people 😉 #PeopleAreTheAlgorithm

At this rate he’s gonna be fighting Zuck in the republican primary.

I’m now seeing people tumble in here who thought they’d be fine to stay and fight.

Get ready for another #TwitterMigration #TwitterPurge

Remember #PeopleAreTheAlgorithm

hi wonderful people

i know a lot of folks are detoxifying and the birdsite incentives sometimes made it seem like only posting your own stuff was wise. Maybe never boosting others over there made sense.

It's different here. Here, #PeopleAreTheAlgorithm

Which means, if you interact with me, and I look at your profile and it's full of yourself. Well...kinda speaks for itself.

Boosting others here helps re-knitting lost and creating new networks of care. Be generous and share your discoveries.
