The Ghost of ÉmilieI have a few different philosophies on bios...
@futureisfoss The first one is that a bio is like a description of an app. If you saw an app, and you didn't know what kind of app it was, you would want to be able to right-click it and see... "Ah, this is a text editor."
@futureisfoss Same thing with a bio. If you saw someone's account on fedi, and you didn't know what kind of account it was, you would want to be able to click it and see.
@futureisfoss And a bio is short... even long bios are short in the sense that... functionally, if you click someone's profile, it's to see that little description and all of their previous posts... There isn't much "space" there for anything else, and if someone is on your profile, chances are it's for either of those two reasons. They *probably* aren't there to get a detailed description of exactly who you are as a person, you know?
@futureisfoss That's why I prefer shorter bios. I don't want to distract people with a ton of text. I just want them to get to following me, finding a previous post of mine, or learning the basic basics of what my account is.

Koi@frankie @thebiologist1117 @futureisfoss I should probably fix mine up, it's just one line that doesn't say much about me
I guess I'm too lazy since I never really did it when I moved from my old instance
