I still haven't got round to figuring out how this works, or trying to transfer all the people I'm following on Twitter, but it's nice to see a few familar faces round here already! It looks like we get a few more words to play with, which is an excellent thing, because I'm not very good at being concise. I'm hoping there'll be a bit less attitude over here. I like the whole counter culture mood. How's everyone else finding it?
@IsabelBest Very chill and wonderful so far. Don't forget that this relatively small site managed to put in an edit button whereas twitter couldn't do it all these years. I also very much appreciate the extra words as thoughts can be more full formed.
@tmstreet An edit button for typos is a nice thing:-) So long as people don't muck around with it and rephrase what they said earlier to sound better later on... I like the principle of a conversation where you have to own what you said (and maybe think a bit more before you put words out into the world). I also quite liked the need for concision which is a good writing exercise, especially for me! But the risk is everything becomes too hard and direct and maybe a bit pompous.
@IsabelBest I use it for grammatical errors and typos only, for fwiw.
