I wrote a little article about how much I loved @shanselman 's response to criticism on social media

I love Scott Hanselman's social media presence

Everyone likes to hate on social media for being toxic/polarizing, but, apparently it doesn't have to be this way

Omarโ€™s Writing

I reflect on how I think social media arguments can always be this way: not taking it personally, constructive, productive.

it's not easy, but it's possible. And Scott models this wonderfully

"sometimes we are emptying the ocean with a teaspoon", and yet, we still try, and we make things better. And it inspires me to pick up my own spoon too

@[email protected] @[email protected] Agreed, sometimes we are emptying the ocean with a teaspoon. I will use my level privilege to advocate for the user as long as Iโ€™m here.

@omarshehata Thanks for highlighting the good and inspiring us to do the same.

@binaryrefinery it's taken me a long time to realize that "social media sucks!!!" is not a fact about the universe

like, how do I make this place a bit more pleasant for myself and others? sometimes it is nicer than other times, can I move towards that more?
