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 yeah there’s a heavy contingent of unreformed splainers who seem to have been lurking from the early days of the fediverse. But I think some of it is also that the higher engagement is getting some of us in front of people who don’t have any context or familiarity with our expertise, too. Doesn’t make it that much less annoying, but at least it’s comprehensible.

When you're new on social media
There'll be time to count engagement

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 ?
