I keep forgetting I’m around a lot of new people here and people don’t know basic facts about me like I have two degrees in information science and have mostly taught in library and information programs my whole career. It’s fine, it’s just jarring and weird.
(Is it me or is there a lot more mansplaining on this web site, too?)
@ubiquity75 so real, and this gets into a fundamental fuckup of social technology broadly:
People don’t understand when they aren’t the audience
and the UI promotes a misleading narcissism where some people (men) then assume they are the audience for EVERYTHING. On Twitter, Erica Baker is a masterclass in pre-scoping all the dishelpful categories she doesn’t want responses in
@ubiquity75 right, it really captures the disruptive, furniture-humping-terrier vibes
"oh, no one trained you to act right”
@ubiquity75 Know when to mute. Know when to block. Know when to filter.
Mute, block, filter. Keep your mental health intact.
Adoption from the 🐦 app to the 🐘 app is 🚀ing. So this is to be expected.

I saw that you published this troet as public @jesuisatire, I wonder if you can delete the mentions of profiles, that way it looks cleaner and is "nicer" to boost.
(also I do not know if those profiles prefer some attention and there for want to be dragged into this)
In other words, fav if you prefer to be left out and of course also if you don't, @irwindev, @mmasnick, @anildash, @ubiquity75, @CJP.
😇
Are you mansplaining me @bitpickup ?
Is it (wo)mansplaining or trying to help out?
To me it looks like there are a lot of people coming over here that are basically expecting things that are different here, or things others and in particular oldies just don't want this to become.
I live in a world that lives and whas programmed on fb and whatsapp and they simply act like form another planet.
There is no way to know your "expertise" and nobody checks every time the profile first.
You just don't get it @jesuisatire, don't you?
@[email protected] Thanks for offering suggestions. "Ta" is British thank you, seen in films and family reunions. Turoet is Spanish for post or toot? My instance installed translation, you cant invoke it, BUT the instance has an algorithm to put a click link on a toot offering translation. Algorithm seems to be more than chosen languag of the poster.
