The best kind of day for me as a #SelfEmployed #editor: When an #author emails me to say they’re very happy with my #edits and feel that I helped them say things very #clearly, so they will be #recommending me to their #colleagues. ☀️

Got a #haircut at this #ancient #barbershop today in #Edinburgh. Established in 1890!
And the gentleman who works here was so comforting to talk to.

Definitely #recommending this to everyone. And this will be my go-to place for a #haircut from now on.

Great episode of On The Media #podcast with @doctorow discussing the enshittification of the internet and the devices we use every day. Walks through some great examples, like Amazon, Facebook, and Spotify. https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/otm/episodes/on-the-media-how-big-tech-went-to-shh #recommending

Anyway, I will probably be boosting (#recommending) content today, to see how differently that works to connect publishers and receptive audiences.

It seems the built in network of people following a person are more likely to find interest in the content they boost than a-social “engagement” with #search, and some of the #design intent around #fediverse seems to be nurturing #community; contrasted to harvesting content farming.

#feedback on fedi #etiquette around boost frequency accepted. 💖
